Beyond Stressed.
I haven't slept now in two days. I have been on Kitten Watch.
My beloved Sherlock and beloved Mozart were neutered. A usual procedure.
But it appears that Baby Sherlock is having major complications. I'm devesated.
He's got an appointment for today. He appears to be in pain, aggressive (he is super sweet so this is so out of his nature) thumping his tail...just know he's hurtin.
He only seems to sleep for an hour at a time..and just can't seem to get comfortable.
Mozart seems to be having bad dreams...almost like he woke up during surgery.
So I'm beyond stressed.
This is Sherlock
UPDATE:
Baby Sherlock has a post op infection in his bowels. So now we have antibotics, muscle relaxers and pain killers.
If he doesn't turn around by Saturday he goes back.
I *might* be able to get some sleep tonight...two days without is starting to catch up with me.
Update again:
Baby Sherlock went back on Saturday and was not better. His temp was now at 103.
The doctor now has me administering two antibotics as well as a pain killer.
This combo seems to working the best although his temp keeps spiking.
So I have to keep giving his meds in timed intervals which means no sleep or very little. I think since last Wednesday I have gotten maybe 3 to 4 hours that's it.
His next appointment is 7-9. Hopefully he will be completely turned around.
Thanks my dearest Scribe for being a sounding wall. It means the world to me right now.**

Update as of 7-12-08
Well, it's a double edge sword.
I'm devestated.
Baby Sherlock is only 10 months old. He has a diesase that can be fatal--and is contagious.
He did tested negative for:
Negative Feline Leuk.
Negative Feline HIV
Negative ERLSA
Positive FIP
However, the FIP diagnosis doesn't mean he has that. It could mean he has the spin off which is the Corona Virus.
It is going to be a long haul. I'm crushed because even with all we do we could still lose him in the end. Hopefully he will continue to eat and drink.
So better he is not. Better I am not.
Devestated I am.
