Weird evening

Weird evening. Wheeled Kristan out to the car to see the dog, then went for a little outing around the block. Mandy was walking in the grass, then yelped and obviously had major pain, limping on her left front paw. We couldn't see anything, no matter how hard we looked, or how bright a light we brought to bear, but Mandy was in terrible pain, shaking and panting, which she never does. Took her to VRCC, the Vet ER on the way home, and they found the tiniest thorn you can imagine, barely visible to the eye. It was so small, it just about fell through the holes in the gauze she carried it out on. She's better today. I hate it when my girls are in trouble, especially at the same time.

Update 8/31


Heading up to St Jo for an evening visit. K says her leg is looking better, but the foot not so much. Ortho is paying a visit tomorrow. Dum, da dum dum...

Still here

Dinner with K. She's still at St Jo. They're still interrupting her sleep every chance they get, but she's managed to catch a few hours. She finally got dialysis this evening.

Xfer to St Jo

Kaiser had her transferred to Exempla St Joseph hospital. Her left leg is swollen and hot, and the MRI suggests she has pneumonia.

K at Littleton ER

She got to Dialysis over an hour late, then was unresponsive after she got into the chair. Not completely surprising to me, since she didn't sleep last night or today. But she might also have a foot infection, so I'm glad they sent her. I just hurried over from work to meet them, and curiously, they took a long time to get here.
