Oh Mogs!! Prayers for Saoirse and you.

 

Sending prayers for Saoirse to get better.

 

Omg, I hope and pray she'll be ok! Hugs to you Mogs!

 

many thoughts prayers and hugs..... please update when you can...

 

Oh goddess prayers are on the way and many hugs and healing vines for both of you!

 

OMG! No! Nothing but good thoughts coming your way.

 

I'm here - I'll be here for a while yet. It's only 7 pm here. I'll help in any way I can - what do you need me to do?

 

Back from vets. Saoirse's had an anterior ocular haemmorhage. Her eye is all misted with blood. She was gagging/nauseated.

There's nothing the vet could do tonight. They have to do blood work tomorrow. Don't know whether it's kidney or heart-related.

She could go blind. She could have a stroke. I'm terrified.

I'm really bad with the chronic fatigue/exhaustion and the shock is pushing me over the edge. I'm afraid I will pass out. I'm so scared and something might happen to her and I wouldn't be there for her. Can anybody help me, please?

My baby ...

I'm so sorry to hear there's nothing they can do for Saoirse tonight Mogs. I can be here if you need someone to talk to to help you stay awake.

 

Had to go to bathroom. Stomach is in bits.

She's lying in her litter tray.

This is agony.

 

I can only imagine. One of my old cats had a bleed in her eye once too - it really is terrifying to see. I'm glad you have her home with you where you can watch over her - I'm sure she'll be more relaxed there with you than she would be in the hospital even though it does put pressure on you to check on her.

 

Im so sorry Mogs.... I am sending super positive thoughts in hopes that her eye will be ok and it is nothing serious.
Try to stay as calm as you can -- you are doing all that you can and I am sure she is more calm with you than at a strange place...

 

Thank you so much, April. I'm so scared.

 

She's not calm. She's really growly. I can't even touch her to comfort her. The vet said I have to keep her as quiet as possible.

 

Thank you everyone for your prayers.

 

If you could keep me company so that I will stay awake, April, I would be so grateful.

At least you can see her and keep looking to see how she's doing. I know you're scared, but you're doing everything you can for her. I hate when vets ask you to keep them quiet - it's impossible unless the cat wants to be quiet. But she has more chance at home than anywhere else of finding somewhere she can relax. It sounds odd that she's chosen her litter box, but one of our likes to sleep in the litter box even though she's perfectly healthy - we think it's just somewhere she thinks is enclosed and safe.

Of course I'll keep you company - I've got a few hours left in me yet tonight. I'm only too happy to help.

 

Please nobody post anything scary on this thread. I'm hanging on by my fingernails right now.

 

I am here as well.. your not alone

 

She only ever hid once in the litter box before and that was when she was really sick with the pancreatitis.

 

Hugs we will get through this mogs... have and keep the faith.. if you believe this she will to

 

many cats seem to find comfort in the litter box... I have no idea why.
I know it stinks when they are growly with you-- Dre loves when I make up songs and sing to him.... and I leave mystical music on they both like--very calming.

 

Thank you, Julia. I don't know what I'd do right now without you all.

I'm on the verge of throwing up.

 

then do it... it is ok you probably need to clear your stomach

 

It's awful that I can't touch her to comfort her.

 

It's tearing my heart apart.

 

I know just keep talking to her let her hear your voice

 

Just being there with her will be helping her. She may not be showing it right now and she might not want you to touch her, but you're her mom and she's comforted just by your presence nearby. You've got this - really you do. And we're all here to support you as much as we can.

 

YOU need to believe that she can pull through this mogs she needs you to believe for her to believe it..

 

I sing to my 2 all the time. When they were feral as kittens it was one of the few things that would calm them down. It doesn't even seem to matter what song - I think it's the sound of your voice that quiets them down.

 

Come on Mogs--you can do this.....

 

Sending positive thoughts your way.

 

Need the bathroom again. PTSD is not helping here ...

 

Don't take it personal about touching her Mogs--when I do not feel good I don't like being touched.... she may need a little space.
Just being in the room is comforting I am sure...

 

Trust me I understand do what you need to do and most of all believe in that fact that YOU CAN DO THIS

 

We're not going anywhere Mogs - just post when you feel you can and we'll all be here.

 

I am here all night if need be

 

Sending hugs and calming prayers. More healing prayers for Saoirse.

 

Thank you so much. I'm so grateful. I can't stop shaking.

 

Breath, just breath you can do this luv.. believe it and make it so!

 

Saoirse has settled under the table. I think she's really scared, too. I wish I could control my fear for her sake and I'm failing miserably.

 

This has completely broadsided me.

 

Mogs sounds like a odd idea.. but do you have a priest or religious person you know.. if so ask him/her to come over and give a healing prayer for your baby..

 

You're NOT failing at all. You're doing what you need to for Saoirse. It's OK to be scared - I'd be scared too. But as long as you're breathing and she's breathing you're both going to get through this. Do you have something like Rescue Remedy in the house - for you, not for Saoirse. Something that might help without knocking you out?

 

Unfortunately I don't have anyone like that, Julia.

 

No Rescue Remedy. I'm having some hot, sweet tea for the shock.

 

A stiff shot of brandy will work too

 

Would that calm me down, Julia? I've got some cooking brandy.

 

Without making me sleepier?

 

Ok luv.. do you believe?? if so YOU can pray and ask for a blessing on her.. get your bible and ask he heals both man and beast.

 

Yes.. or shot of snaps not a bunch to get drunk just to take the edge off

 

Hot sweet tea is always good. And I second the brandy - it's not something I recommend often, but it definitely does help in situations like this. Even cooking brandy will work - it's not the best tasting of all brandies, but it does the job. You could even put it in coffee if you prefer.

 

I normally dont recommend it either but in some situations it is needed.

 

Mogs, keep saying to yourself "I can do this" over and over again. Breathe and concentrate on "I can do this". It works. I know how hard it is to do this. You can do it, I know you can.
When I had a crisis, I kept saying over & over again "I can do this" and I did it.
I'm so sorry you are having to go through this. Try not to make yourself sick. Saoirse needs for you to be well.
My thoughts & prayers are with you & Saoirse.

 

Julia, I've just got to take 10-15 to cook some dinner. Are you good here for a few minutes? I'm only cooking a couple of steaks so it won't take long at all.

 

I am good April

 

Perfect, thank you. BRB.

 

Hugs and prayers continue from here Mogs....

 

Thank you all for being here with us. I'm sorry I can't reply to all your individual messages but I'm holding every single one of them in my heart.

 

We are here for you luv... it is ok do what you need to do to take care of your baby and yourself the rest will come out in the wash.

 

Wish I could throw up and get the feeling of wanting to over and done with. I'm getting that horrible post-shock coldness and I'm completely exhausted.

(Sorry for ramblings - I'm partly doing it to help me stay awake and it's partly pressured speech from the PTSD.)

 

Hugs for the stomach try some peppermint candy or tea

 

Good luck! Concentrate on breathing in and out. Accept. Accept that you're doing the best you can do for her. Accept the outcome, whatever it may be.

 

You can do this, Mogs. Saoirse has the best cat momma! I have only known you for a few days but you know what you're doing! Sometimes I find getting on their level helps them. Find a blanket and lay down next to her.

 

Do what you need to Mogs. Don't worry about feeling like you need to reply to everyone. We're here and supporting you...you do what you need to to get through this. Can you at least grab a blanket or something to try and warm up a little. That and plenty of hot drinks might help a bit. Never forget, you are doing everything possible for Saoirse - and she knows it too.

 

Welcome back April how was the steak?

 

Mogs, I love this cd--I downloaded it and I can try to send it to you but not sure it will let me-
It is very soothing for many cats I have worked with as well--my cats love it--
pm me if you want me to try to send it to you...
no pressure at all--just thinking it may help?

 

Hi Julia

It's pretty good thanks - I'm eating at the computer, but then I always do so that's nothing new.

Mantras for Ascension



Listen to a sample El Ka Leem Om

Listen to a sample Kadosh, Kadosh


Mantras for Ascension contains an extremely powerful mantra and a chant you can use to clear your field of excess emotion and keep your heart open to God. The Hathor Chant will clear the auric field through the four lower elements all the way down to the earth. It allows you to clear and expand your pranic tube while connecting to Mother Earth. The Kabbalistic Chant will clear the field through all the dimensions, all realities, all the way back to God. Both are great for clearing emotions. Read more here...

 

good idea Jayla

 

The was a little watery fluid with a pink tint from her tear duct. Just after the bleeding started she was gagging. Could some blood be draining through her sinuses? Could that be making her feel sick?

Her coat looks awful. She just walked a little across the floor and she was so slow. I feel she doesn't know what's going on and she's scared.

 

I dont know luv.. I am just a cna and dont know anything about that area

 

{{HUGS}}

I'Ve had an intra-occular bleed myself - specifically a hole in my left retina.
It is survivable.

 

I would imagine that it's possible that there's some drainage through her sinuses that might be getting to the back of her throat and making her gag. Everything in that area is connected and if blood gets in her throat is most likely is going to make her feel a little sick. She probably won't quite understand what's going on, but she knows she's home and she knows you're there with her and that will be helping her.

 

BJ Hugs thank god your hear and knew the answer!

 

She went to lie on her side and she had to sit back up. This is agony. She let me pet her a little bit.

I am so scared.

 

Thank you, BJ.

 

Mogs calm down luv... you really need to calm down she is picking it up and the two of you are creating a fear loop. You need to break it and calm down once that starts she will calm and you will get calmer and things will get better YOU NEED to believe this!

 

She'll get herself comfortable. Cats are good at finding out the best way to settle to avoid hurting themselves. I'm so glad she let you pet her even if it was only for a minute - it always feels a bit better when you can offer them some physical comfort like that.

 

She can't get comfortable.

 

She's crying on and off. I don't know what to do.

 

She is scared Mogs, sing to her.. talk to her and breath and slow your thinking and just be with her.

 

I never had this happen but 1 of my boys has a sinus issue and it takes him a little bit to adjust his head properly to sleep comfortably without the dripping.

 

I think she's having a stroke. Wobbled on her legs.

 

How long until morning for you two? Can you sit on the floor and sweet talk her? She needs for you to be calm. I know a few diabetics that has an intraocular bleed. They are working and living their lives. She is just confused. She needs your comfort.

 

I agree with @Julia Rae sing and use her name --sing softly...just make up a song of how much you love her and how pretty she is....

 

If you can sing to her, that will really help both of you. It will force you to slow your breathing rate and it will calm Saoirse too. These bleeds can and do happen with diabetics and they do get over them. It just takes time and right now she's confused because it's new to her.

 

is there a 24 hour clinic near you?

 

There are various causes for an intra-occular bleed (one that happens within the eye). The vet will be able to examine it to determine what caused it. Some causes can be uncomfortable which would explain her restlessness and litterbox loafing.
It is possible to have a blood vessel on the surface of the eye bleed, which will cause a huge red blotch. I had one after my cataract surgery. These can be painless, though they look awful. If it is leaking a bit, that would explain the pink tinge in the tears.

 

My baby ...

 

Breath Mogs luv... I belive in you I have faith in you.. YOU can do this just breath in and out and picture a calm beach with the two of you sitting in the warm sun and the suns warmth caressing away all your fears!

 

Mogs, breathe, in...... Out....... In....... Out......

 

peace in..... peace out.....

 

Mogs, Saoirse needs you to be as calm as you can for her. I know it's difficult. I know you're terrified. But she needs you to do this for her. And I KNOW you can do it. Just concentrate on one breath at a time.
