Linda, you were right! The doctor apologized. It was one pound eleven oz, not the 1.11 I thought it was. So thank you so much, I never would have known to ask if not for you. However, a little more upsetting, the doctor called with update saying Cassie not going home. Black tarry stools. Blood count dropped. They think possible ulcer. Monitoring her blood count. Her catheter not working anymore and if they have to do another they are talking about putting one in through the jugular. OMG!!! May need possible transfusion, but that is if her count cannot be stabilized. Will consult with internist about proper calorie rich food for Cassie. Doctor says ok to nutrical, and the recovery royal canin, but no to boost, insure yogurt and mirtazapine. Doctor says she IS eating now and the mirtazapine is not going to give her a voracious appetite, so she sees no benefit. Same with the yogurt. She says it's not going to accomplish what I want it to. Will consult for other calorie rich food, but first must make sure no more bleeding and blood count is stable. Have to go will keep all update.
Love to all
