Thank you for all the responses.
The husbands son and wife came over last night for a couple of hours to help. I got one room completely clean so Koko can have a good space to be in. She is hurting this morning with heavy panting again. on our way to our own vet for help this morning.
It is really hard to keep a min pin quiet and calm. They are like cat dogs. climbing on everything. She cant, but it doesn't stop her from wanting to and trying to walk on her back legs to be taller. She howled all night and while it is usually funny, last night I could have done without the noise. She has learned to crow like a rooster when she howls.
The husband is being monitored and the docs trying to decide what to do first. I will find out this morning. The cardiologist wants to put in a pacemaker today and his heart rhythm is very irregular. His heart rate keeps dropping into the 30's and he de-saturates. He is on oxygen and will come home on it.
The kidney docs want him to have dialysis today. They would have to put in a port to do this. He had a fistula put in a month ago but it is not ready to use yet. This was in anticipation of needing it in about 6 months. The only place he has they can put the port in is in the same area of his chest the cardiologist needs for the pacemaker.
So I don't know how they will resolve this today. Platelets and Plasma given throughout the night. His platelet count was very low. Don't know why yet. Not able to eat or drink or move without feeling nauseous. The meds are not helping.
More testing today, while I continue to clean. It may be unusual, but Im almost glad he is in the hospital and not at home. It wouldn't be safe for him to be here until everything is cleaned. The son is taking the day off work and will be here with his wife to clean today as well. Tried to call in a cleaning service- they wouldn't do it because of the biohazard.
As far as having the dog sitter help clean. I don't know how civil I can be with him. The son already told him that he was a dumb a**. He was in the back yard last night cleaning up the mess left there- away from the animals.
Maggie( the fighting yorkie) is shaking this morning as well. She had to be shaved down last night to look for wounds and because she was matted to the skin. It looks like she has some ear damage as well. She will go to the vet today also.
The lab is doing fine overall, he goes in today to have his ear surgery checked and is eating pumpkin for the liquid poop.
Lani Min pin 2: The cheerleader, brought me 2 mice last night and put them in my shoes as a gift.
Im managing. barely. I don't get strongly angry very often, it has a hugely neg effect on my health. I am very angry/ upset right now and trying not to completely lose it. We will see what today brings. Trying really hard to come out the other side of this with everyone safe and well, me included.
on an odd note. I was so tired and looking for a clean spot to sleep, I forgot we have a motorhome in the driveway. The pups and I will be moving into it today.
