Annie is getting better! He said her RBC is creeping up, so that’s good for her anemia. Her BUN and creatinine are better, her phosphorus shows little change.
She lost more weight, but it was only .08 of a pound. He was truly amazed at her progress. And, honestly, so am I.
This morning, before I took her in for her test, I called Brian and told him I wasn’t going to do it, I thought maybe it would just be best to say goodbye. He was alarmed, asked “why?” because she’d been doing a little better yesterday. I guess it was because she just didn’t look good this morning and she didn’t want anything to eat. I said “okay, I’ll take her in and if there’s no change or she’s worse, I won’t be surprised and I’ll make arrangements”. But she’s still getting better, so I guess she’s not ready.
The vet did say that the only reason she’s doing well is because of what I’ve been doing. And he wants her to come back at the end of February, beginning of March for another blood test. So, from what he said it looks like he’s pretty sure she’ll be with us for at least another month. Maybe more.
