Need Prayers! I'm the owner of a 10 yo female yorkie. We call her Abby girl but her name is Abby. Over the last 10 years she's has really never had health problems until this July 4th. I knew right away that something was going on. She was lethargic, not eating, not playing with her toys... NOTHING. This happened with a 12 hour period. I didn't want to take her to the ER vet so I waited until the next day. We took her and the vet asked to keep her so he could run some test. Me being a Nurse Practitioner informed him of test I thought she should have. Bad news came later that day... Her PLT count were 29,000 (normal 100,000-300,000) and her WBC was 1,900 (normal 6,000-7,000). I immediately thought of some form of malignancy. Since all this happen she's had a blood transfusion, vitamin K, vitamin b12, subcutaneous fluids, baytril (IM and PO) antibiotics. She ate once today and has been drinking water well. No BM in 4 days. no abdominal distention. She's still resting most of the day. The vet is sending her to Tuskegee veterinarian clinic in the morning. Oh, abdominal x-rays looks abnormal but he can't really tell what the problem is. So, I'm sure you all can imagine how devastated I am. She resting next to me in bed as I write this. I want to cry so bad but I've cried too much already. Please give us some prayers for tomorrow. I would love for her to be around 3-4 more years. Thanks in advance. Nite...sweet dreams.Sincerely,
