first off, thank you so incredibly much to all of

first off, thank you so incredibly much to all of you who sent well wishes, love, and support for lucy. it means the world to me to have you all rooting for her recovery.

i wanted to give you an update since i've been offline focusing on my baby girl. so, her illness is twofold -- she has a cancerous mass on her liver, which caused her platelets to drop to zero and what that means is that her blood can't clot without platelets so she was bleeding into her stomach. so, because of that the mass can't be surgically removed until we can get her platelet levels up to 50,000 or it’s too dangerous. the good news is she's been given a prednisone drip since monday which has now increased her platelets to 30,000 which is awesome. the vet says if she continues to improve like this she can come home tomorrow for the weekend. hopefully, this happens and then i'll know better what next steps are to getting her this surgery to remove the mass.

and then, we hope the mass is fairly new and hasn't spread or caused too much damage. she's around 12 years old, but always a spry little knucklehead and so i hope her strength and youthfulness kicks in soon. i'm able to go visit her and it's heartbreaking to see her so down and obviously hurting, and it's awful to have to leave her there. but the vet technicians at @canyonanimalhospital and doctor G, in particular, have been amazing and i can't thank them nearly enough for doing everything they can to get my lovey girl healthy again.

please envision lucy's platelets rebounding and my girl back cozy at home, growing healthier by the day. lots of love, and thank you again! xo, v.
