Update: Mystic is dying :(

[kaycountrygal]

I'm sorry your Mystic is having health problems. Not only is it bad for her but stressful for you both. I do hope vet can figure out what is going on and get her better. According to your post, you're at work now. I'll check back later today. 12:53pm

What a long, long day. I have been crying for most of it. He had emergency surgery.... still not sure what happened, but the part I understood was that he has a blood clot causing the problem. He was also beats away from heart failure when we got him to the vet at 11:00.

I have no idea how much the surgery cost. Nor do I really care. The vet said I had 3 choices:
euthanize him (NO!)
let him die on his own (NO NO NO NO!)
or surgery

Lets just say I told her to do the surgery. And I cried. A lot.

She had to stabilize him in order to get him strong enough to do the surgery. He was in bad shape. I do not understand how he went from happy, playful boy yesterday morning to dying boy within 24 hours.

Oh, and absolutely, positively ZERO crystals. None. But his urine was pure red. He has a serious infection that caused a blood clot... or maybe the clot caused the infection? I really, honestly, do not understand much of it. Manily because I was too busy crying to listen and comprehend what was being said.

He's having a hard time waking up from the surgery. The vet isn't sure why -- if its the stress of the day...the major pain meds/steroids/antibiotics/anisthesia combos... or that he was just that close to dying.

I am just go glad we got him there in time. Prayers please for my boy. I won;t have him home til Saturday night at the earliest.

oh KIM. Major huge prayers going out for you and Mystic. His recovery may be slow, but as long as it is upwards, that is all that matters!

Praying that he wakes up and that all is good.
