Although, Cleo has been doing well, I did receive a dreaded phone call.
Cleo's Doctor called to report that her lungs had collapsed this morning and that she was re-intubated (Tube placed back down her throat) To help her breathe. They reported to me that she was just not acting like herself and was pale. She has been a healthy pink. But she was more lethargic and had been struggling today.
And the x-ray of her chest looked bad.
With all the good news I was starting to forget I could get news that frightens me. And brings me once again to a hard place.
They have run some tests and haven't found out what it is. They suspect an infection. They will continue a series of tests until they find out what it is. One of these tests include a spinal tap, (my poor baby)!
They do have her on an antibiotic already as a precautionary measure, and all other vitals are looking good.
So we will just hope she decides to fight!
WOW, this is hard!
