Issey has spent the day in the garden under the trees.....she hasnt eaten again today but I assure You she seems comfortable.
I have checked on her every half hour and each time she lifted her head up to see Me

Its such a lovely day here that I will leave her out there for another couple of hours before bringing her in

She had a good night, I sat with her for most of it.
couple of times I thought she was going to go but she is still here this morning

I am in constant contact with my vet -

She is deff drinking alot

Just going to spend the day keeping her quiet and having lots of cuddles xx

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #586 on:** August 11, 2009, 07:52:52 AM »

i am sorry the vet wasn't more positive, and I hope you can have a bit more quality time with her. You are both in my thoughts.

Michelle (furbabystar) · « **Reply #584 on:** August 11, 2009, 04:18:08 AM »

She has got "that smell"

and she has started drinking alot ......
think everything is starting to close down
She doesnt seem stressed and gets up and slowly walks around....infact she is in the litter tray now....and now has gone back to lay by the back door (gap where air comes in)

CC & The Pussycat Guys & Dolls · « **Reply #583 on:** August 10, 2009, 20:35:13 PM »

So sorry its came to this Michelle

Wishing Issey peace for the rest of her time

Michelle (furbabystar) · « **Reply #582 on:** August 10, 2009, 20:18:27 PM »

Yes my vet would deff come to me if I asked .....I will speak to him about it as my bill is creeping up again and I dont want him to think i am taking the P xx

Sam (Fussy_Furball) · « **Reply #581 on:** August 10, 2009, 20:15:17 PM »

I agree with nicter I would ask the vet to do a home visit when the time comes

nicter · « **Reply #580 on:** August 10, 2009, 20:05:26 PM »

So sorry its been such an awful day for you Michelle but glad you have a little longer with Issey I think we all hope they will die peacefully at home. Would it be an option for your vet to do a home visit if that time comes? We had our cat Button pts at home ..although an awful thing to go through was made easier knowing I didnt have to stress her more ( or us) taking her to ther vet Lots of

to you and Issey xx

Michelle (furbabystar) · « **Reply #579 on:** August 10, 2009, 19:48:43 PM »

Had such a terrible day

Had convinced myself it was time to let her go.....screamed, cried and was sick (thats me not issey) Took loads of photos
Phoned my Mum to take us to the vets

Get to vets, had a long chat and my vet (and my mum) both felt she isnt quite ready to go ....although my vet has told me 100% that she is now dieing but he doesnt think she is suffering. He says she is gently fading away.

What I want more than anything now is for her to die here at home

But I also now know that I will be strong enough to PTS if it comes to it

So this is it........

My Brother and Sister inlaw have just been round to see her and say their goodbyes

Just one last thing,
She has a few bald patches on her from the Op and from being shaved to be scanned and blood tests etc, these have never grown back due to the Chemo.
I had asked my vet a few weeks ago if they would even grow back as i didnt want her dieing looking a mess - he said probably not
Today I noticed the fur is growing

on all of the patches.....

Hope it went well today Michelle

melysion · « **Reply #577 on:** August 10, 2009, 19:24:04 PM »

Any news?

Kay and Penny · « **Reply #576 on:** August 10, 2009, 11:22:11 AM »

could be Michelle

people on chemo often struggle to understand that it is the chemo which makes them feel lousy rather than their cancer

Michelle (furbabystar) · « **Reply #575 on:** August 10, 2009, 10:28:45 AM »

I have just got up -

She is weak on her back legs but has gone out and laid in the sun

Can't believe how old she looks....and she is only 5yrs old bless her

We got vets at 4pm....

I dont think she needs pts just yet because she is manageing to eat alittle and enjoying the sun

Actually i just thought, wonder if its the chemo that she has been having ?
Remember she got really bad on the other chemo she had....
She might pick up abit without it

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #574 on:** August 09, 2009, 10:52:39 AM »

Fingers crossed the mistletoe helps her.

Millys Mum · « **Reply #573 on:** August 08, 2009, 19:49:28 PM »

Sorry shes going through a bad patch, i hope you vet can help you on monday.
Remember you can have a home visit

Michelle (furbabystar) · « **Reply #572 on:** August 08, 2009, 19:39:00 PM »

Just given her a mistletoe injection -
Didnt start them last week as vet wanted to see how the chemo would work
Got nothing to lose now....will try anything

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #571 on:** August 08, 2009, 18:12:27 PM »

I hope she has a good night, and the vet can give you some positive news on Mon Michelle.

Bazsmum · « **Reply #570 on:** August 08, 2009, 16:28:30 PM »

Kay and Penny · « **Reply #569 on:** August 08, 2009, 13:33:34 PM »

you and Issey have come a long way together on this journey Michelle - so sorry to hear it is nearly at an end

Michelle (furbabystar) · « **Reply #568 on:** August 08, 2009, 12:51:46 PM »

I have always buried my others but I'm not sure I want to do that with Issey -
and i think I want to take her there -

I also think I need to start making the phonecall

She got her to eat some dinner....it was only a little but better than nothing.
Her coat is horrible again, think thats the chemo

It is - I think the original lumps could be smaller - the vet will be able to tell you for certain on Mon.

Sadly that is common with cancer. Fingers crossed for Mon, and I hope she is just having a sleepy day, and she has a better day tomorrow

Thanks Desley -
This is such a rollercoater.....

Because of the new lump, now I'm not sure if the original lumps have actually got any smaller, maybe I am just imagining it ?!

How does she seem in her self Michelle?

She has been doing really really well,
today she is very sleepy though....trouble is when they have something like this you never know if its just a sleepy day for now reason or because they dont feel well !!
And she hasn't really eaten today either

Quote from: bunglycat on August 07, 2009, 16:37:58 PM
