Doggy

[Helsen]

Hey guys,

 

I just post this because maybe some of you will take a look and give it a thought or 2. I really must admit I normally do not do this kind of thing, neither the other thing I did.

 

Ok here is the deal: Baska: a really long time member of F|A came out with a shout out some days before (and I am afraid in between all the bs posts that r being made here all day and everyday it wis already lost and forgotten ). She needed and still needs help for her doggy. It needs medications or it will not survive and Baska is at the end of her powers in this. Even below zero. With meds the dog might survive. I donated. WTF?? yeah i know, but to be honest because it is about an animal, not a human.

 

I cannot stand animals suffering. Although this is not the first thing I have done for animals (no big deal imo), it is the first here. And the first for 1 human being I do not actually know irl but at least is not a total stranger. And no, tbh I have never even spoken to Baska. But.... I saw her comments, her helping on the server, the nice and kind words everyone gives her and the enthusiasm when she comes on here and people recognize it. A lot of you older members will recognize or even know her, maybe the newer ones should. One other reason is I have a animal myself that is getting older and I already dread the day he might be gone. So I related.

 

Anyway, as said .... she needs help. Your help. So if you can and feel up to it, plz pm her. Tbh she is too shy for this. And since I am outspoken already I just made this topic. I will not make any of these topics in the future again, nor will i donate to anything again (I think :P). But as said read and contemplate. i think for me it is also a bit like my job. Save 1 and you saved all 😘

 

Thank you for your time

Oh wow didn't expect that.

She is not just my dog  - She is my life,my daugther and my best friend . 

Tekila was born with heart disease ( regurgitation of the heart valve) but that never bother her in her happy puppy life. She's now almost 14

In march we found out that in her spleen she has 12cm/5in cancer . 19th march she had surgery.Vet removed the spleen. (Let me add that this is the same vet that was taking care of her since we got her.) And then the HELL started ...

Some organs started to fail - liver,kidneys and pancreas.

Serious inflammation of liver and pancreas and usually high Urea in blood, are stopping her from eating ,sometimes she doesn't even drink so we had to force her with syringes of food or water.   

From march 19th shes having iv treatments every 2nd day ,if test results are bad she needs them everyday.

Vet said that the test results r so bad that the best we can do is to PUT HER DOWN... FU*K NO !!!!

We changed the vet. 

We told her all about doggy,her history of treatments ,shots etc etc etc And she said that after new blood test and new ultrasound of her belly she will take care of her. 

(Well what can i say - old vet = one piece of Son of a biatch - dont get me even started .)

 

Thx to her the liver is doing a lot better

AP (liver) from 3000 to AP 410 ( still too much but we have it under control now) (1-141)<-normal results

Pancreas from 1448,2 to 753,6  (1.00-120.0) <- normal results

Urea from 290 to 109 (sometimes to 90) (3,30-8,30)<-normal results 

 

Each test and we usually do them once a week cost around 200zl/55$. All meds (none prescription-painkillers,probiotics etc) and vet diet food we menage to buy from out paychecks (only me and mom works)

But we still have to pay a rent , buy food , pay all the bills etc . We already borrowed money from family friends etc , mom also took loan in the bank...We are totally broke by now . 

 

IVs while helping her also is flushing the red blood cells and the result of that - Bad Anemia  

And to stop that and to keep our beloved dog with us we need special Medicine 

Its called Aranesp - its a one shot siringe (like for insulin) . 

 

Aranesp^® is a medicine that acts like a hormone in the body called erythropoietin. Aranesp^® helps the body create more red blood cells.

More red blood cells increase your hemoglobin (Hb) level, helping give your tissues and organs the oxygen they need to function properly.

 

Thank you for your time

@Baska I'm just now seeing this. Yesterday you said you were feeding your dog. Is this the same one? My aunt and uncle have a yellow lab and he was on all sorts of meds. Unfortunately he was put to sleep recently. I think he was 13. Bad arthritis and some other stuff. Hated hardwood floors as well haha- they'd put rugs all over the house for him!

 

Hope you and your loved one are doing well. ❤️
