Milita's Infection Is Back



Hi everyone, it's the Mom here.  If you didn't see this on Facebook, Milita's mouth infection came back within a couple of days of her being off the antibiotic (which makes me wonder if it ever went away in the first place).  We picked up more antibiotics for her on Thursday, and she's been on the Amoxicillin since then.

I'm worried about her having surgery on Wednesday, though, because her breathing sounds a bit funny.  I've heard her wheezing, especially when I pick her up for a hug.

I trust our vet, but I cannot not worry about Milita; she is my baby!  I know the vet will give her an exam and draw blood before the surgery starts, but I'm really wondering if we should postpone it until she can get a little better.  I'm going to call on Tuesday when they open and see what she'd like us to do.

Please send purrs and prayers for Milita.  She really needs this surgery as soon as she can have it, but she needs to be healthy enough to have it, too.

  12. We purr that the vet can give you a helpful answer, and that she heals quickly. I know that feeling of "waiting until the vet office opens so I can call" all too well. :-(
