Sorry - I'm wiped out - from my FB today:
Cultures came back - this is one tough little filly! She got a triple whammy of bad stuff: clostridium, salmonella AND rotavirus! No wonder she went from fine to not in such a short time! Her update today is great despite all that. She has become energetic and is nursing without so much discomfort. They are increasing her time nursing to bring her back to normal. Her electrolytes are back into the completely normal range and she has finally turned a corner. I know she could backtrack, but the plan is to pick her up on Sunday. |

| I'll update here before FB today:
Another great update! Her vet is pretty positive now that Sunday will be fine for her to come home. They are weaning off her fluids and letting her nurse as much as she wants. Fluids will end by this afternoon and we will see how she holds. She will be on some meds when she comes home, and I'll have to be super observant for many many months for colic and ulcers. But it looks like she's made it though! |
