After the vet called me this morning, I had to go and see my Katie girl for myself. Boy did the tears ever flow when they brought her to me. I just held her in my arms and just didn't want to let her go. I could see that my poor baby girl was scared from being there and not knowing what is happening to her. Broke my heart.
This is the latest update on her.
After my vet consulted with a specialist, it is confirmed that Katie did have a small stroke. There is a slight improvement on her right side. Her right front leg is not spastic anymore, by this I mean that it is not tucked under her sticking out anymore, but the paw is still curled under. She still cannot stand or walk properly, but is able to make it into her litter box. She can eat on her own, but they help her a bit by finger feeding her. He said that he doesn't usually give out his personal opinion, but he would like to give her at least another 4-5 days, because seeing the slight improvement in her after just 2 days, gives him some hope.
He also spoke with the other vet, who knows me as well, and they are keeping the cost down, with her treatments, to a minimum and I will be able to make payments by installments.
He said that he will be gone til Wednesday and by seeing her after that, will really let him know if there is a chance of her recovering from this. Of course I can call every day to see how she is doing.
IF she is still the same way as I saw her today, then I will have to make a decision that we all hate to make, but I do HAVE to give my Katie girl that chance.
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your prayers. They do help.
