Sudden changes for the worse
Dec. 2nd, 2018 05:13 pmNala is dying. We took her to the vet and ( medical stuff ensued )
She doesn't seem to be in pain, but she walks unsteadily and has started to drool. She wants to be on one of us, or in front of the fireplace, at all times. She doesn't complain much anymore on the way to the vet (where we carry her very gently in a backpack, so she doesn't slide around in the carrier) or when we put fluids into her. She is eating more, in response to all the treatments, and she seeks us out and interacts with us, which is a quality-of-life metric the vet seems to hold in high esteem.
Of course I have to fly to California tomorrow for work, which made me mad when I found out and makes me madder now. I'm flying back Tuesday night though, which is quick, and the beast is under strict instructions to not die while I'm gone.
So I assume it's a rough couple of weeks, or something, coming up. But see also: promeowses. I'm not going to hold her back, when things don't seem good anymore.
