Default Spicey's pancreatitis

Spicey has continued to go downhill despite yesterday's treatments with
anti-neasea, fluids, and antibiotics. So today, I gave her over to TED for
and IV and continued intensive treatment.

She's scheduled to remain at the hospital for the next two or three days,
and she'll get x-rays and ultrasound as well. She apparently has chronic
pancreatitis, an issue that I'd taken her to the vet before to check for
cancer - but cytology was inconclusive.

They'll give me daily or twice daily updates on her progress. I'm filled
with regret that in these last days, she's been hiding in the a cold tiled
corner or poked and prodded at the vet.

Just last week, I woke up to find her meatloafing on my chest for the first
time, purring and patting my nose occasionally. I saw her dash up to Buster
and start chewing on his throat, while he tolerantly turned his cheek like
he was putting up with a kiss from his aunt.

I just have a fear that I won't see her again.


I'm so sorry to hear this. I know that you will have a long
consultation with the vet and will make whatever decision is best for
Spicey. You have done remarkable things for her, and her life has been
infinitely better because of your special care.
