I will probably not be on YT much until after Christmas but don't want any of y'all to worry about that. Just keep sending positive vibes our way!! We are sooo tired and stressed but in good spirits. I'm not gonna let tjos ruin our Christmas. Tonys mama (who is like my best friend) is going to come up here and take care of us for Christmas. I feel so blessed to have so mnay great people supporting us. I'm just happy Luma can he in her home while she gets better. |
Luma is going to be fine....it is YOU that needs attention. I dont think you are realizing how dangerous this is for YOU! You are very non concerned about this situation for YOU! YOU have been started on rabies shots! This is not a series that you start then just dont complete. There is not a credible doctor alive that would let their patient blow off the rest of the series, especially when the person sustained a bite from an unknown dog that was NOT caught! And time is of the essence....you cant just wait 6-10 days and then decide well maybe you will....or maybe you wont....there is an incubation period for rabies....in other words, if that dog that bit you does have rabies (and I would not think it did, but I would NOT take that gamble, as rabies is FATAL in 94% of the cases in humans) I am concerned you did not get the first TWO shots they give after the initial exposure, and because of you not wanting to disrupt or "ruin" your Christmas, you wont continue the series on the days they are to be given....they are each given on a specific day, until the series is completed! This is VERY IMPORTANT for you to complete this and I am not getting the feeling YOU realize the seriousness of this for YOU!!! And now you wont be back on until after Christmas????????
