Phoebes (GA)

Member Since 2017
So it's been 5 months since we thought we were gonna have to say goodbye to our girl. 5 wonderful, frustrating, educational financial binding months. (I know you all get "it") the tumor has grown a little now the size of an almond. Still not interfering with with the urine, other than the aim is off.
She started feeling bad last week around monday. She hadnt pooped the whole weekend and was not eating but bites of food so we took her in monday. Got bloodwork, urinalysis and a partial enema. She had about 4 poops. And her numbers went high. Into the 400s. Bloodwork nothing major, physical assessment nothing outstanding. BUN was up a little, she is still a little anemic. Went home with antibiotic in case of urinary infection. And we uped her fluids from 150 every other day to 100 every day. Orders for miralax. She still didn't feel good, could just tell. By Friday night she was barely moving acting like in pain with meatloafing and lying flat. Her numbers still high. So took her back in Saturday morning. Stopped the antibiotic, urine came back barely elevated white cells. Thought maybe was making her feel bad. She checked her again said she did not believe she was constipated. Ordered Onisor for pain since worked in the past But our girl is just not feeling well. She said if she's not feeling better by monday or Tuesday she's really not sure what more we can do at this point. She didn't feel any masses, and I talked to phoebe didn't get an answer.
I guess basically just asking for positive energy and prayers if you do those.
Sorry for not updating more we were just enjoying our girl. I can't tell you how tired I am, I can only imagine how she is feeling. Thanks for being here. It's comforting. I know I missed alot of information. I just feel like it's the end drawing near again. She's such a fighter. But do I want her to fight anymore or just be at peace. Thank you to those who continue to lift Miss Phoebe up. It's felt and appreciated.
 
I was just thinking of Phoebe this morning and am so happy to see an update. :bighug::bighug::bighug::bighug::bighug: Ming and I will keep you and Phoebe in our thoughts and send lots and lots and LOTS of positive vines over. It’s crystal clear how much you love her and I can only imagine how difficult this all is. :bighug::bighug::bighug::bighug::bighug:
 
I have missed you and Phoebe, Angela. So many hugs and kisses for all of you, healing light and energies to her and to you. Holding you in loving arms and thoughts my dear. :bighug::bighug:
 
Thank you for the update - although it's sad to read this. I'm sure this is a very difficult time for you. We all understand that you can't focus on posting right now. Sending heartfelt hugs and prayers your way. You'll know when it's time to help her cross...:bighug:
 
Awwww, my girl Phoebe! So glad that you have had this time with her and have been able to keep her comfortable and happy through it all. You will know when it is time, so will she. Your devotion to her (and she to you) is so amazing and beautiful. A love for the ages!

:bighug: :bighug: :bighug: :bighug: :bighug:
 
I am so sorry you have to do this. I think it is the hardest, greatest expression of love - letting them go because it is what is best for them though it is so hard for us. :bighug:

I am so sorry Angela, my heart is breaking for you.

I am sure that you must truly treasure the "extra" time that you've had with her that you didn't expect to have. What a blessing. But I am sorry it's now her time Angela (and everyone else in Miss Phoebes' life).

Fly free sweet girl. cat_wings>o
 
((((Angela)))). I’m just so terribly sorry for your girl and you. You d done your absolute best and I’m certain she knows the love and care you’ve given her was all towards easing any discomfort.

I am so sorry to hear about Phoebe, I am so glad you took the time to really spend her last moments with you together. What you’ve done is a kind gift for Phoebe... please be kind to yourself :bighug:
 
It's been a long time Angela. You might not remember but you were the first person to greet me here in what seems like 100 years ago now. We're fighting our own tears now over something else and only through the kindness of another member did I just hear about Phoebes. You and me, Noah and Phoebes and everyone else has seen better days. I will never forget either of you or the love and kindness you brought here. I know I'm late but just one last head bump for Phoebes.
Dickson and Cynthia :bighug:
 
So sorry t hear this. I know how very much you loved her. I’m sure Phoebes knew too. Being the kind and loving thing to doesn’t make it any easier. Prayers for peace and comfort.
