My Dad and my Step Mom have a 14 year old toy poodle named Ginger. She turned 14 this past November. They have had her since she was 8 weeks old and she and my step mom have a very close relationship. I found out last night that Ginger has been vomiting and having diarrhea for a couple of days and they took her to the vet yesterday morning when blood showed up in her stool. I will post directly what my step mother had posted on her facebook rather than reword all of the details myself.

Cathy's words...

This is Ginger. She turned 14 years old in November. She is the boss of our home and she knows it. She is also our insulin diabetic baby. She has not felt very good the last few days. And it breaks my heart, because I know that she will leave me probably a lot sooner than I will ever be ready for her to. She holds my heart in her little paws and yes, she knows that too.

Medical update on Ginger. She is in the vet hospital. She has Pancreatitis, Dehydration, possible Ketoacidosis, possible bacterial infection in the blood stream, plus other stuff. The vet is starting multiple different treatments but she has a lot of stuff against her- age, diabetes, .... If you get a chance, she could use prayers (her mama could use some too)......



When I talked to Cathy last night she said that the vet called around 6:30pm and let them know that she is perking up a little. Please pray for this little girl. She has a lot of life left in her I just know it.
