I went in to see Bilbo yesterday. I was (probably foolishly) hoping she'd see me and want to cuddle, but she was mostly overwhelmed and hid under the bench. I think it was mostly a strange space and smells, too many people poking at her all day, and the plastic cone she has to wear because she has an IV port on her arm she shouldn't be biting at. Still, it was really hard to see. If anything, she looked worse, though that may be me being hyperaware to how thin she was.

Yesterday, the vet seemed encouraging that there were some more treatable possibilities they were investigating, though they've not ruled out the big ones. So I'm trying to trust and let them doing their job, and hope it's something we can get on the other side of. I'm keeping on the okay side of not-okay, at least.

I'm seeing from the weather much of the US is under a polar vortex and facing some really cold temps (for us). Kentucky also got hammered by rain and flooding. It looks bad out there. I do hope everyone's staying as dry and warm as possible.

I know you're trying hard not to let your heart break and stay optimistic. What an ordeal for you both.

*massive hugs*

Thanks. It's been hard, but I am keeping it together more or less. It helps to have actual decisions to focus on, & of course to have friends supporting me. I do wish I had better news to share!
