Hi Everyone Louis Mum here…
Louis's blood count dropped to 11% overnight, it seems the
lower the count goes the quicker is drops – if that makes sense? Therefore, the
decision to give him the 2nd blood transfusion was taken out of our hands, he had
to have it!
Whilst that was happening, Olga went to have her blood ‘typed’
at our local vet, there are only 2 types positive and negative, so we had a
50-50 change of her being a potential match, we got the results back tonight
and she is positive – Louis needs negative so Olga cannot help.
The process of
taking a blood sample wasn’t stressful for her which I’m glad about, although
she does keep holding her leg up to show me where she has been shaved! – bless her.
So our big handsome lad has had his 2nd blood transfusion
and his count went up to 18%, not as much as last time but that is only after 1
bag, he had 2 bags last time, and got to 21%. We now have a wait to see if it
drops overnight and by how much. It seems that we are not getting any luck with
this illness - actually correction - we are it’s just all bad luck!
It seems once again we wait for the results tomorrow and
see where they take us.
As always thank you for your generosity, and your kind
words, I really want to write something positive but it’s getting harder and
harder as the days go on.
Love Louis Mum
xxxxx
