The vet just called to inform me that Penny's stool is dark colored which indicates bleeding somewhere in her upper GI tract. He is going to give barium to "coat" her tract and give it some protection. Its a small reminder that she is still not out of the woods.

 

Keep up the good thoughts. Thanks!

Your vet sounds like he's really on top of things, that must be reassuring to you. Sending prayers that she keeps responding well to treatments and hugs of encouragement to you.

 

I'm just down the road in Rialto, I hope I get to meet the amazing Penny someday

He even calls us at home to reassure us that we are doing all of the right things. He is an awesome vet!!!!

Dr Cuoto said that our vet is doing exactly as he would do. He said that her numbers may not go up for 48 more hours, but that the way thatshe looks is much more important than what the medical reports say. He said that she sounds like she is out of the woods for the most part.

 

I cannot even begin to tell you all how incredibly happy I am !

Oh Steph, all I did while getting my car inspected and then at my meeting was think of Penny and you and Steve. I am so encouraged by this update. Continued prayers, hugs, and Teddy Grahams sent your and Penny's way.

Penny is home and resting. No results on the platelet counts yet. But the coag panels look good and she has a healthy appetite.

:grouphug for you and Stephen and a :kiss2 for Miss Penny.

 

Hopefully, being home will help with the healing process since there's no place like home.........

I am so glad she's home, it's just what she needs. Hugs to you too, you must be tired but feeling hopeful. It must feel so wonderful to have her back home where you can love on her all night.

I am exhausted. I have had little sleep since Sat. I spent my nights crying and praying for her return to good health, but now that she is here I feel the need to keep a watchful eye on her.

:yay Penny is home!! :yay

 

Maybe you can set up a comfy bed on flooring rather than carpeting? That way you can sleep by her and if she pees, it's easier to clean??

 

Take care - rest well - continued :hope :hope :hope for Penny :grouphug

I'm already the biggest crybaby in the world, so it's a good thing they don't have Teddy Grahams here or I'd be a blubbering mess everytime I go food shopping!!!

 

There's no way that little girl is gonna leave you!!! She knows how much she's loved!
