    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.

    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!

    She just will not get up this morning, very tired and I think it's time. Better a moment to soon than a second too late. Thank you to everyone on this site for so much. Will write more and her eulogy at a later date. Give me strength. Gave her some boiled liver, that she loves.

    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 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

    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.
