Ellie had her visit to the vet for her last injection,my usual vet is on holiday so i had another one, who has seen Ellie before,they had a student with her, so they had been reading up on her history so that was good.
It is with deep sadness i tell you that she thinks Ellie has a liver tumor, it was suspected that it was only a liver infection as she was responding to treatment, however she has had some very up and down days, but the liver is still enlarged and she felt there possibly was a mass there.
To say i am gutted is an understatement,i am still going to see my usual vet for his opinion, he has tried so hard to make Ellie well .
I will not be putting Ellie through any more surgery, pallitive care is my option for Ellie,and it looks like she will be back on prednisone again which is the pain relief they are offering me for her.
I will wait and see how she responds to this last antibiotic injection and then decide what option is best for her, i still am not giving up hope for me wee girl, and hoping that maybe the vet is wrong, i know a long shot, but you just have to believe that miracles do happen.
For now Ellie is doing ok, making sure she does not suffer is my top priority, and as i am very in tune with my cats behaviour , body language etc, i feel i will have a pretty good idea how she is.
you know i kind of suspected this all along, but i just did not want to believe the worst, and hoped for the best, i still do really.
I will be honest i am finding this unbearable, i cannot believe i will have to go through this again, and with her, i had hoped for a much better outcome after everything we did for her, i do question whether i did do the right thing with the major surgeries, as also her mouth is not as good as it was the last three months either, granted nothing near as bad as before surgery, but she does still have an ongoing problem, so really it was not a huge success.
I just feel emotionally drained,and to make matters worse my tooth just fell away this evening , so now i have to go to the dentist which i dread.
not coping very well with this news of Ellie,has set me off on a very downward spiral.
I wish i had better news to report, but i don't sadly.
prayers and good wishes are gratefully accepted for my precious darling wee baby girl, i love her with all my heart which is breaking in two right now., I just want to go and cry myself to sleep right now, thanks for listening my friends, it always helps to write my feelings down and to share with those who really understand.
