Things are looking up for Martini!

Wolfiesmom · 10-14-2011, 04:33 PM

UPDATE for Martini: I spoke with the vet, and he said "we all agree she is looking brighter today" He said she has stopped vomiting and that she "sniffed" a piece of chicken today. She hasn't eaten in 5 days, and would turn away completely when food was placed in front of her, so this is a very good sign. She may be getting her appetite back. Of course, the peeing is a good thing, too. They are going to keep her on IV fluids, antibiotics, and anti-nausea meds, which she has been on all week, over the weekend, and see how she does. We are taking it day-by-day, and that's all we can do right now, but things are looking good. Our little fighter just may surprise everyone and come back from this! Even the vet is surprised how well she is doing given that her kidney "numbers" were "so bad." "Ahhh" (that's a small sigh of relief...). Keep praying everyone! Thank you all for your support!
