Cody tolerates Lucy
Two weeks ago Saturday, Lucy stopped eating....Sunday and Monday she drank a little broth and water and was obviously languishing. Vet was closed Sunday and Monday for Veteran's Day, so Tuesday was our first opportunity for help. They admitted her, xrayed her twice and started an iv....forced fed her...and watched her unto Thursday.... no improvement. We transfered her to an animal surgical hospital in Salt Lake where they gave her a sonigram and found that there was something in her intestines causing a blockage. She was operated on Thursday evening. They found a piece of fabric in her intestines. We picked her up on Friday evening....along with a c-collar and three medications. She has rebounded quickly and should be as good as new in a week or two.
I know.....we are crazy, but we felt committed to her and were unwilling to allow her to suffer or to put her down.
My blog would not allow me to continue when I first posted on Lucy's brush with death. However, again, Luke has come to my rescue and I am happily blogging away. "Thanks Luke!"
