God is indeed good and I'm so glad her glucose is up. She's no doubt fighting as hard as she can so let's pray that glucose stays good while she's on her own and shows she's getting through this whatever-it-was that hit her so hard. I imagine it was that human food as I've had two Yorkies that just could not tolerate it after a certain point in their lives and as I said, a piece of ham almost killed my late Jilly and the vet began talking about us having to consider her "quality of life" when she had been down for days and getting worse. She was just a little older than Piper at that time by a month or two I think but Tibbe was 4 1/2 - 5 years before I had to take him off all human food due to how sick the tiniest portion of bread, milk-product, meat or veggie made him w/in a day - day and a half. I think I remember reading on YT within the last 18 mos. when longer-time members were remembering back that there was a member whose dh gave her dog a single pea that subsequently triggered a disaster for the dog.
Still, Piper could have maybe gotten in to a deposit of some other toxin or pathogen and you'll never know what it was. Life as a dogowner can be a rollercoaster ride. I'm praying for Piper several times a day as she comes into my thoughts and so hoping for that day she's in the clear from this. Give her a tiny kiss for us if you can and stay courageous and hopeful.
