I agree with your vet. My little Gracie had CT from the time she was little. I always carried ice or a block of ice with me wherever we went, so that I could cool her down if necessary. You can start with a spray bottle of water, but that was never enough for Gracie. When she would get excited, her trachea would swell and her temperature would climb to dangerously high levels. I needed to submerge her in cool water to get her temperature down. Once I did that, her breathing within a minute would return to normal. Gracie did not let her CT stop her. She enjoyed every moment of her life and lived life full speed ahead. Gracie's CT was severe, though. Her older sister had it also, but it was much milder and only when she got older. Ashley lived a month shy of seventeen years. I hope you find ways to help your baby. I'm here to help if you need me. |
