The vet thought she could make a recovery, but she just got worse at the hospital. She stopped breathing, was resuscitated, but then her heart rate was failing and her breathing was shallow which became due to fluid filling in her lungs. In the end, she was just too sick to make it. I will miss her terribly  We still don't know the primary cause of her death and why she was having so many complications. The vet say we may never know why she got pancreatitis, why she was anemic, it could just be a variety of secondary issues to the pancreatitis or something else entirely. |
I'm so very sorry for your loss. This is so sad. RIP Sweet Dany.
Just wanted to say the campylobacter can be deadly in young animals and humans too. It is often missed under the microscope and is more frequently found when a stool culture is done and sent to a lab.
