So, I have good-ish news, and bad news.
Good-ish news: There’s not a new egg like the vet feared.
Bad news: The old egg that the vet drained is still there, and is causing a lot of inflammation around her intestines, which explains why she hasn’t recovered…
Also, the vet is recommending I get her spayed. Either way, she’s probably still going to require surgery I can’t currently afford, which means I’m going to have to start a gofundme if I hope to pay for it. (If not, I’m probably going to have to euthanize her, tho we’re not quite at that point yet, it’s getting close…)
In the meantime, Roo is on anti-inflammatory medication, as well as a new round of antibiotics. Hopefully this will help her body break down the inflammed tissues and allow her to put weight back on again, and give her a better shot of surviving surgery if that’s something I’ll be able to do. There’s still a chance her body could do something about the egg, although it doesn’t seem very likely to me, it’s still a possibility according to the vet.
If I’m being honest, I feel pretty hopeless, but I’m not going to give up yet. I’m still going to do everything I can to get her better. I just have to take it one day at a time.
Also I know I mentioned opening commissions a long time ago and kinda…dropped the ball on that because of mental health issues, but right now I don’t have many options for making money so I’ll be opening up commissions alongside the gofundme. I’ll make a separate post about that sometime in the next few days.
