Amber Isn't Well

The biggest issue now that she has presented with this is that the likely hood of it happening again is quite high. You might not be so lucky next time...

I'd defintely be considering speaking to her specialist about speying when she is well again as having to go in to spey when it's an emergency in an already compromised dog is quite a scary option!

It is the specialist who said not to spey her unless it was an emergency.

Yes and I'd be speaking with them again and asking if they are truly happy with that decision should she end up with a reoccurence and pyo and having to go under then - I wouldn't be.

It was after an infection that the convo was had. Not sure you fully understand the situation.

I might not but I am speaking from experience.

Amber has multiple liver shunts. She was supposed to die 5 years ago. She could die at any second from liver failure. If she goes under a general she may not wake up as her liver is stuffed. Even treating her with medications is a dicey business if the medication is processed via the liver.

As long as she wants to be here I'll help her.

How's Amber doing today?

She ate some breakfast and had some drink (pediasure) for lunch. She is a bit quiet. No discharge and abdomen doesn't appear to be swollen or hot.

It sounds like she's doing better, even if she's a bit on the quiet side. How are you doing?

She just ate a cookie! First time as she has been spitting them out and i have been breaking them up into little bits for her. She is funny when she is off her food as it looks like there is something wrong with her teeth. When she first had issues with her liver and went off her food I did think it was her teeth for ages. But she also doesn't like super mushy stuff like cottage cheese!

I am surprised I am still standing up!

I hope she continues to perk up and is better soon. What an exhausting week you've both had.
