About an hour after I sent the update Thursday night about how well Macalester was doing, she barfed. After consulting with the vet, it was back to water only overnight, a tablespoon of food on Friday.

She did OK, then threw up at 4:30 Saturday morning. But it seemed different — like her usual pre-illness barfs. So we kept feeding her a tablespoon of food every 6 hours. She was looking good, feeling good. Acting more like Macalester. I wrote to someone that she seemed to be improving just a couple hours ago.

Then this evening, she barfed an hour after eating. She really got worked up at suppertime, and I have to wonder if her pancreas got overstimulated. It’s something to ask the vet. She is also loose bowelled, which makes me wonder as well.

I’ll bet its back to pure water and stuffing meds down her throat. Darn. It was alot easier to give her her medicine hidden inside a bit of dog food.

I feel like I’m jinxing Macalester. Every time I say things are going better, we have a set back. Maybe I just need to be doom and gloom 100%. Sigh.

Another Set of Setbacks
