UPdate on Ellie-mae...

[phesina]

More prayers for Ellie-mae and you. She has been through a lot and is probably very tired out from it all at this point.

I'm so glad she's going back to see the vet. He has been wonderful, and he will help her get through this hard time.

Prayers and good wishes and warm healing energies,
Love from Pat and cats

thank you, your kind word are very re-assuring, i hope you are all right, she almost looks like she has given up the will to go on, but maybe i am just reading too much in to it, and feeling guilty about putting her through all of this, i am hoping for a much needed turn around tomorrow, maybe this will be her worst day, and tomorrow she will perk up, fingers and all paws crossed for that.

She is sleeping on the spare bed in our bedroom now, with her blanket over her, and i have put my wheat pack up against her ,i will get my husband to go get and extension cord, as we don't have enough plugs in our room, and then we can put the pet electric blanket on for her, hopefully that will bring her comfort.

Ellie is not doing well at all, i am gravely concerned for her, i have to go to a hospital appt early at 9am, i wish i could get out of it, but i can't, then i am going to see if we can get her in earlier to see the vet, i cannot wait that long, unless she is better tomorrow, but somehow i doubt that, i am just beside myself with worry, i feel so horrible that i have put her through this now,oh i hope she is going to be ok, i am so worried, been bawling my eyes out all night,please continue with your prayers, we both need your support right now so very much, thanks.

Oh, Carole, I am so sorry. I hope and pray so much that the vet will help Ellie-mae and she will soon be getting stronger.

Love from Pat

Prayers, prayers, all loving prayers for you and dearest Ellie-Mae.

Poor Ellie-Mae; I hope you feel better soon.

I'm so sorry to hear that she's not feeling well. It may well be the pain patch that's causing her to be very lethargic and it may also be affecting her appetite. I hope you'll be able to get an earlier appointment with your vet. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent her way. Please take care. (((HUGS)))

I hope that Ellie-mae is just having a bad day. I know it's hard to watch, Carole. You want so much to make the pain go away. You'd bear it for her if you could. Keep the faythe. (((HUGS)))

I have news and it is GOOD NEWS, ellie turned the corner today, she ate and drank,i was over the moon, i guess yesterday was just maybe her worst day ever,so i did not have to get an earlier appointment as i knew she was much better.

Her check up went well, he said everything is healing nicely and gave her another convenia injection,i must admit even her mouth looked better, and guess what my vet kissed ellie-mae, i was so moved by his genuine care for her, he is just awesome, he will be off for two weeks, anytime now as his wife is having their third baby another wee girl, he has a son 3 and daughter 2, so a real handful, and he told me i can email him anytime, isn't he neat?

She came home and ate a good amount of food and drank some water, then she decided for the first time in her life ever to hide under the bed, but she is happy with me reaching in to pat and feed her, i am sure she will come out soon, she is doing so well,thanks for those prayers, they worked for sure.

I think i let my emotions get the better of me yesterday, i was just overwhelmed with concern, and maybe in a bit of a panic state, anyhow just hoping all continues to go well from now on.

[phesina]

What wonderful news! Hallelujah!!!!! Prayers of gratitude.

Keep getting better and better, dearest little Ellie-mae!

[carole]

Thanks Pat i am so happy believe me, she ate well tonight, and did her first poop and another pee, so all is in working order again, she has hidden under the bed again, but she is ok with me patting her etc, and she did venture downstairs,for a minute then went straight up stairs again,i think she feels safer up here.

My vet wants me to reduce her steroids even further, which is great, just hope it works, she was on 3 per day, and sometimes 4 now she will be on one every second day, isn't that great news.

Your worry was understandable. I'm SO happy she's better. Only sunshine and light from now on. Gentle kisses and well wishes for Ms Ellie!

[Catty1]

We all panic about our precious babies, especially one like Ellie-Mae, who has needed extra care and attention. What WONDERFUL news that she turned the corner! Prayers that she continues to eat and thrive and be pain free!

[Medusa]

You can't blame yourself for worrying, Carole. That's all part of being a cat mom. I'm so glad to hear that Ellie-mae has turned the corner. We'll keep the prayers going that she gets better and better and that you have many more years w/her to come.

[krazyaboutkatz]

This is wonderful news. I'm so glad to hear that she's eating better, healing well, and feeling better too.
