promising news :)

Well our Tikka is doing ok :) first bit of good news is no tumours in her chest phew!!! so they were able to operate (had she got tumours it was a no go and probably they would have put her down :(   ) she then had to have her bloods done which showed anemia and low glucose they didnt want to operate till they were up and stablalised but the infection in her uterus may have made her more poorly it was a choice between two evils :/ she could  have died during op due to the anemia and gluclose under anesthetic but if not operated on the infection would continue to make her ill and then to an extent she may have not been well enough to operate at all and then die  - i chose to go for it rather than wait and do nothing she has a strong heart and i thought it was the best of the risks SO she was given glucose and antibiotics and had the op yesterday - she woke shortly after and her gluclose was level she still wasnt eating and she has stayed at the vets, the wanted her to stabalise with the glucose levels and have her eating to keep them up shes been syringe fed and although could have come home tonight i didnt think i could manage the feeding i would rather her be more stable. shes apparently perkier although vet thinks shes shy of other animals being there but she possible scared she has always been at my mums never went far only other place she came was here with me ive spent my time walking her and shes got used to come to new places although some times reluctanly - shes was put on a normal dog diet and quickly lost the weight and got fitter (even jogging with me lol) which we needed for her first op to remove the lump on her mammary it was cos of this lump and the recent cough she had that the vets thought she had tumours on her chest as its quite common with a mammary lump in dogs we got her through that and she was jumping and running around was amazing so shocked now this has attacked her .
I am assuming it was something to do with her season that she picked up an infection i only noticed when she stopped eating as she's been a greedy little thing (my mums fault really and the carers :/ umm they fed her 3 bags of dog treats a day !! was suposed to have one treat from a bag per week :/ )

She needed to get through these last 2 days since op which she has and its gonna be 7-10 days before a proper recovery so its still up in the air but shes held her own shes a little fighter and 12years old 2 major ops shes done damn well
I prayed for mum to look after her and let her stay with us for a while . i think she has watched over  her girl :)
