Default Sophie Kate Needs Prayers

I spent a major part of last night at the Emergency Vet with Sophie Kate. At around 8:30 pm she started vomiting and by 10:00 pm she had gotten sick four times and would not take any fluids so off to the Emergency Vet we went.

The ER Vet gave her 300 ml of Sub Q "Ringers" (fluids) and meds for her upset tummy (sorry do not have the names, the information is with my Vet). I turned down their offer to keep her overnight and brought her home with me, I just felt better staying awake with her (I did not get a good feeling from this Vet, they took my baby from me and I did not see her for over an hour, that is never allowed).

This morning I took Sophie Kate to her Vet by 8:30 am (they called me based on the fax from the ER Vet). She is there now, has not gotten sick today and is urinating fine but she is not absorbing the Sub Q fluids very fast. That has my Vet concerned so they are going to keep her until the end of the day for observation and will decide if she is staying overnight.

My Vet has done all her blood work and an ultasound and does not see anything unusual. Sophie Kate has a history of Pancreatits but they don't seem to think that is the problem because her blood work looks fine.

The one thing that scares me is my Vet said her symptoms are like a Puppy with Parvo! That scares me, I get her shots yearly and take what I think is excellent care of her.

I am pretty used to Sophie Kate special dietary needs due to the Pancreatits but this has me really scared. I am so careful with her diet and make sure she never gets anything but her RX food and fresh water.

If you have a spare prayer and can offer it to Sophie Kate it would be appreciated. I know she is sick, last night she did not want to cuddle with me at all (which is unusual), she went to the other end of the couch and slept curled up in a ball (which is not usual).

For now I am remaining calm but I am so scared for my little girl
