My Piper stopped eating and drinking

[yorkietalkjilly]

Such an answer to prayer. It seems another miracle has happened on YT but we'll know more tomorrow but it's sounding as if she's beat this thing. Piper is a little trooper! Such a tiny little fighter - but, of course, she was taken to an excellent vet clinic before she was too far gone to save and they apparently worked wonders with her. That she's gotten this far is amazing and from the look of things, she's likely going to make it if she can hold steady another day or so, be kept from repeating whatever might have caused this to start with and nursed along carefully while her liver is so damaged. I'm thrilled to death for Piper, Bobbie and Tony and that terrific vet staff and clinic.

So happy to hear Piper is doing ok, and hope it holds without any setbacks from now on. Praying for a complete recovery.

The combination of excellent vet care, dedicated parents, and lots of Yorkie Talk prayers seems to have pulled this amazing little fighter through.

Piper is doing well this morning. Her glucose held steady all night and she is off of all IVs and tube feedings! She is alert and eating well! The specialist wanted to keep her one more day just to be sure she remains stable; and, barring any unforeseen complications, she will be discharged tomorrow!!

Thank you, Linda, for the update! Such wonderful news. Praying Piper will be discharged tomorrow.

Thanks for the update Linda. I've been at work all day but Piper's been on my mind constantly. It's so amazing to see that Piper's alert, eating well and continues to improve with each passing hour. Praying this little girl will be home tomorrow.

I am so happy to read Piper is still staying stable. Prayers most certainly continue. I pray she will be able to go home tomorrow afternoon.

Our Piper is one heck of a fighter. She held steady yesterday. Liver test came back normal. Her blood sugar is holding at 89 to 90. This is still on the low end. But, the Dr. feels comfortable letting her out of the hospital.

My Piper Girl will actually be going home with a wonderful lady who will take care of her during the week for us. My husband and I both work full time jobs and would not be able to give her the meds and food every 2 hours that will be needed for her to get stronger. She will be with this friend until Thursday when I get off work. She will come home for the weekends where we can take care of her. We will be doing this until she can hold her blood sugar levels long enough for a longer period of time. I don't work far away, so I would be able to take my lunch break and come home to take care of her. Then straight home after work.

Piper is going to be in such wonderful hands. We were lucky to have 2 wonderful people volunteer to do this with us. I am not going to state the names of these 2 wonderful people until they say I can.

Me and Piccolo will be leaving shortly to go pick up our beautiful Piper Girl.

Gonna be bittersweet. Knowing she is getting out, but not coming home just yet.

I want to thank all of you for your continued prayers and support for all of us.
Your kind words have meant so much to us.
I received private messages from several of you,telling me your stories of your babies survivals. This gave me more hope than I thought I would have. This kept us going. I will update again once we get her out of the hospital today.

Until then. God Bless you all.
