Kasha's t-4 levels are normal. The ultrasound didn't show any tumors, but her liver is full of "fibrosis" which is impairing it's ability to function. Kasha will be spending the night at the vet on IV fluids and antibiotics. Hopefully the fluids will help flush the toxins out of her system and she'll feel better. If it doesn't, to quote my vet, I'll "have some decisions to make." I hate it when they say that! This is the only problem with adopting seniors. My mind knew when I got her that our time might be short, my heart refuses to accept that!

I'm going to go spend some time with her before I go home tonight.

queenofpoop: I take milk thistle myself so I have some at home already. When Kasha gets to come home, she'll get some too.

Catty1: Candace is a truly exceptional vet. I have great faith her abilities. She's also a lovely person. (must be the name!)Our husbands are good friends. I've been monopolizing her professional time lately, so have not seen her socially!

Freedom: Kasha is a spitfire! I didn't know about her hatred of dogs when I adopted her. She was already pushing 16 when I got her. My husband worked at the shelter she was dumped at. I had just lost my senior kitty and he knew that I missed Twicket deeply(I still do) and he knew Kasha had no chance at adoption. So he called the biggest sucker he knows--me! She walked into my house like she owned the place and put all the other critters and the humans in their place!
