Hello everyone. I posted about a month ago asking for advice about my 6
month old Valentine being depressed with ECE. Well for a short time she got
better. She relapsed about 3 weeks ago. Since then its been force feeding
duck soup 3 or 4 times a day. Amoxicillin, Flagyl & Carafate 3 times a day
& SQ fluids twice a day. Its been torture for her & its been hell for me
too. Anyway her poor little skeleton frame just cant take it anymore & last
night we had to take her back to the hospital for IV fluids. The vet gives
her a 50/50 chance of surviving. I dont think her chances are that good.
Problem is I just dont want her to go over rainbow bridge. Im being selfish
& I just dont want her to go. When is enough, enough? I dont want to make
that decision to end her life but I cant live with her torture either. Why
does this have to happen to one of the most wonderful creatures on the face
of this earth! I just cant stop crying & I just dont want her to go. She
steals all my socks, eats all our raisins, dives in our cereal bowls & gives
me kisses every morning when I get home. She danced so much we often
wondered if she had tourettes syndrome. Now she can bearly lift her head.
I have never loved an animal like I love her & Qpid ( my 1 & a half year
old). I have worked so hard to save her but I feel like I have failed her.
PLEASE everyone pray for my Valentine. In the mean time I will just keep on
crying & Qpid just keeps right on looking for her.
Melony Qpid & Valentine
