More awful updates for Deloris… I took her for the official vet appointment this morning, hoping to see how far along her babies were, and instead of babies, we found a giant cyst in her uterus! This poor Sweet Angel has been really going through it. My first thought was that she crossed my path so that I could end her suffering but the vet wanted to try to remove the mass even though it’s a very risky surgery. I still don’t know how I feel about this, but …. The good news is, she made it through the surgery successfully! One of the Vet Techs is taking her home for the night so that they can watch her and make sure she recovers completely. She has been given a ton of pain medicine because the last thing I wanted to do was to prolong her pain and suffering. This has been really bothering me all day while I was waiting to hear back from the vet. One of the worst feelings as a rescue is to have to make these tough decisions… and hope you make the right one!! Also thankful that her procedure today has been completely covered 🙌🏻🙏🏻😭 so once again, I am not asking for any money, just truly need your support to keep me going. I feel like my head and my heart is broken and swallowed whole by my bubble guts. I have been on pins and needles all day trying to keep busy with Ranch chores… there are so many complications that could arise, and of course, her feet are still a mess… I am so thankful she came into my life so that she could get the proper care that she needed. I just feel terrible that I didn’t meet her sooner.
** the sonogram photo where the yellow cross is, shows the size of the mass. A little bit of white coloring is the only space left in her tiny body. It’s no wonder. I thought she was pregnant. I kind of still wish she was instead of this painful mass!
