While several of our customers and others are taking care of their aging parents, we've been lucky to have Krystal for almost 13 years. In April she will turn 13.
We had another scare last week, the vet suggested she had a tumor on her palette. As a precaution, he gave her some antibiotics and yesterday we thought she wasn't getting any better when we brought he back to the vet. On Sunday all she did was sleep and seemed confused and wouldn't eat.
This time we had a surgeon look at it and after 10 days of antibiotics, to her, it looks like it's an ulcerated ulcer or infection and not cancerous. We had prepared ourselves to have her put to sleep, but she's home and ate like a teenager last night. Sandwich steaks, shrimp, scallops, eggs and cheese. How do you get your 140# baby to eat her medicine? Guess she was tired of fried eggs and cheese.
On Thursday am, we have a follow up visit to get the results of her blood work. I'll keep you posted!
