Adie had to go back to the emergency vet last night. The regular vet wanted to keep her overnight because she is still vomiting from time to time and now has diarrhea. There is no one there at night so I wasn’t about to let her stay there alone. I had thought I would bring her home on the IV and sleep on the couch with her in the cloths basket next to the couch but I lost my nerve. I’m glad I took her back. I really like the place and think their treatment is just what she needs. Adie truly does seem to feel better and has seemed to feel better and better every time I see her. It is just taking so long! Her little tummy isn’t bloated or hard anymore and she doesn’t mind having it rubbed. She just needs to stay on IV’s until she no longer vomits. The length of time between vomits continues to lengthen. Then she will have to eat with a little enthusiasm and keep it down. They said they would not offer any food last night (Giving her stomach a rest and a chance to heal). She was still sleeping a lot which is good in a way because she can conserve her energy.
I feel so depressed and so guilty. I can’t stand the thought of her hurting. All I want to do is bring her home and love on her. She needs a mommy right now and I can’t be that for her until I can bring her home. I couldn't stop crying last night. All of the stress and worry has just gotten to be too much to keep inside anymore;
Thanks for being there for me and understanding how I feel.
