Today ...Thank you for asking about Sugar Franklin! Today is her 11th hatchday.<br /><br />She was in renal failure (I was at the vet's the minute the door opened on Friday) because she just seemed "off." No one expected her to live the weekend. But I brought her home Sunday night! Have to give her meds twice a day (you can imagine how well that's going). She is still very, very sick; only eating a few grams of millet a day and very little water. I've taken to "forcing" formula and pedialyte on her via syringe, along with the meds.<br /><br />Back to the vet tomorrow for gavage, meds, and hydration (they do it so much better than I do). I was so devastated I was going to lose her last weekend that each extra day I have is a miracle. She could still die at any time so I try not to harbor false hope, but she made it to her hatch day. :-)Scritches.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00888201072541904299noreply@blogger.com
