Pancreatitis

Little Connie Dog is VERY Unwell. Fingers crossed, we’re waiting to see how she is in teh morning after a night in hospital… vet confirmed it is pancreatitis.  Cause? Being a poodle who is middleaged, overweight, and female.  Just like in humans. Possibly she’ll stay in hospital for 2 or 3 days; then hoperfully she’ll be ok on a carefully managed diet.

Of course Mr Beloved and I are worried and miss our baby… there will be about a YEAR of austerity after this, but she’s worth it.  Please send good thoughts…

Worried..

Poor little Constance is at the vets.  We are waiting to hear the results of her blood tests, but the vet suspects she either has pancreatitis or haemorrhagic gastroenteritis.  All I know is that when I saw her with very bloody diarrhoea, I just about fainted and had to be put in a chair with my head between my legs… thank goodness Mr Beloved was the strong one today and was able to hold Connie while the vet got her prepped…

Constance is hooked up to an IV.  I am hooked up to the phone, nervously waiting to hear…
