Minnie latest

[miasmum]

I do, I would never visit Lymington without a visit Di

[JoM]

How is she now Di?

[Diflower]

She's doing ok thanks Jo. She's been out to the field the last couple of days, not to go round it but still, a bit more of a walk.

The vet rang with the blood results yesterday; circulating red cells are in the lowest of normal range; new red cells are being made but not a lot yet.
So she's to stay on this dose of steroids for a month, if she can without the side effects getting too much.

[JoM]

Fingers crossed the side effects won't be so bad then. Bless her, she's such a worry isn't it - both her and Millie!

Oh that sounds a little better! xxx

She has managed her usual trick yet again.
Yesterday the ravenous hunger was driving me - and her - completely round the bend. She wasn't really improving, was yipping and panting, not resting properly because she was so desperately hungry...she's been on the reduced dose since Monday so I was hoping it would make a bit of difference by now.

This morning I came down to find our Minnie was back She wagged at me, followed me to the kitchen, then came back into the l/room with me and my coffee, laid by me and rolled over for a tummy rub, yaaaay
And didn't go straight to the cupboard, panting and whining. Obviously it hasn't all gone away, but it's not driving her, and she can now rest too
Much happier now - both of us

So relieved to read that xxx

[Kaz]

Ooooh she is such a brave girl - please give her a gentle tummy rub from me! xxxxx

[JoM]

Oh that is lovely news, good girl Minnie! Give her tummy a rub from me too Di xx

[Diflower]

She'll take as many as she can get
