This is Carrot, the 15-year-old girl we rescued 9 days ago. She was trapped under a house for 5 days. On top of this, she was microchipped and was lost for SEVEN years, and her owners didn’t want her back.
She was severely emaciated, dehydrated, and in immense pain, and in there have been moments we truly didn’t know if she would overcome this. We went straight to the vet with her, and they gave us as much information as they could without a sedated exam, as she wasn’t healthy enough to have one. She was hypothermic and dying from sepsis from some sort of mouth infection. They prescribed pain meds, antibiotics and told us to see if she perks up over a few days.
She was improving slightly, but it was like a roller coaster over the first few days, but we got her healthy enough to undergo a sedated exam. They needed to keep her to see what they could do for her & find out what the root cause of this was.
We then picked Carrot up after a 3-day hospital stay, where she received 6 rounds of IV fluids, antibiotics, 4 dental extractions, a bone biopsy, and so much care to help her feel better, and some more news.
We got the words that nobody wants to hear- a 50/50 chance of bone cancer vs. a severe infection. Biopsy results should be back next week, and while we’re nervous, the progress she’s made in such a short time gives us real hope. Everyday she continues to prove she wants to live. She is old, yes, but she has so much fight left. Holding her again has brought so much peace, if only you could see how amazing she is.
Please continue to lift this old lady up in your prayers, God, please heal her. 🧡
