2hounds Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 We said goodbye to sweet Paradise today. We found out today that it was lymphoma, but she had been in ICU since Thursday with low platelet count and sky high liver values. Today she spiked a huge fever and was starting to have respiratory problems. She was extremely weak and was bleeding internally, her feet had swollen to the point that she couldn't walk, so we made the hard decision to stop fighting to save her failing body. My original 2 hounds are both gone now, my heart is in pieces.
