Isabella needs blood transfusion SOS 🙏🏻💔

Update posted by Sandy Llaja

Dear friends, the weekend was a days of waiting. I had to leave Isabella in Vet's hands because my health is affected due to the type of work I have had and the stress.

Finally the results have already come out. Isabella has liver failure with hepatic encephalopathy and a contaminated blood with a several anemia.

In the tets the substance is marked in yellow is: FOSFATA ALCALINA. This substance is in the liver. The normal range is

10.6 to 101 U / L

Isabella has 176 U / L

Which means that her liver is not working and with copper intoxicated.

Isabella has become sick again because her poor nutrition (she has not eaten enough and the necessary nutrients) that has caused Isabella's blood to become contaminated and have severe anemia.

Treatment:

- Unavoidable blood transfusion that must be do no more in two days.

-Antibiotics

-An injection of liver protector every two

days for two weeks.

After the transfusion can back home and continue there the treatments. She NEEDS start to eat the enough vitamins and minerals which all dog needs and supplements for her anemia. The anemia was basically caused her skin inflammatory and the infection of the sores.

Doctor came home to tell me all that, because I am not healthy now (the hands, fiber, etc) and because he wants and needs to explain exactly to me all the problem.

If all the treatment is fulfilled, the prognosis according to the vet is 80% of probabilities.

In the best case, a treatment with liver protectors every month. But she could have a good life (of course, if she eats).

I have mixed feelings because although it is true that Isabella's health has worsened, this time the treatment is radical to minimize

the damage. It is very likely that she has a liver deficiency for life, but with treatment and nutrition has a lot of hope of having a good quality of life.

So my little Isabella is in a limited situation, but transfusion is the most effective treatment. She had to get worse to be fit for a transfucion. What would "clean" her body.

The doctor is very committed to our case. He has seen me and knows our situation. He will not charge for his work! But he can not assume the cost of transfusion and medications either.

Until the moment of writing this update I still do not know how I will deal with this situation, I only know that there is hope (I had already lost it on Saturday) and I trust, I have faith that God will indicate the way and provide.🙏🏻

I never stop believing in the power of prayer. Now I only ask you to continue praying for us and always keep us in your thoughts as before.

Thank you for being here, we love you very much and we know that we are part of a family.

Sending love from Peru ❤️🐶
