This time being sent home with a lot of pain meds so bocchama can sleep easy at least

I'm so emotionally wrung out but just so happy he's not in danger

X-rays: nothing major, slightly enlarged liver

Bloodwork: elevated white cells and elevated levels with stuff of the liver

Confirmed he def ingested something poisonous and fighting off infection

Anyway had to spend another $1.2K, so bocchama funding help below:

Unfortunately I'm back at the emergency vet clinic. Bocchama's pain came back. Sedating him and taking X-rays this time....

the vet bill is close to $1K, which isn't something I can personally afford but also didn't hesitate at all to pay.

still if anyone is willing to help pitch in for Bocchama, my ko-fi is here

back home finally. bocchama is awake, though very groggy. They gave him a bunch of medications and antibiotics and I'm still waiting on the blood work, but for right now he doesn't seem to be suffering like he was this morning.

truly a scary day, just glad he's stable

Angie 🥺 thank you

clinic dog (sweetest 9 month old german shepherd) checking in on the patient

At least he's not in pain while he's sleeping...

I'm bracing myself for the bill but that's second to him being okay....

Spent the whole time just hugging him and tearing up. Poor guy was in a bad way.

i'm saying animators are wizards

figure of speech. I don't think it's something anyone should get over and move past from.

I just can't get over how an entire country was willing to starve to hold the line but a few flights get cancelled and their representatives immediately sold out the people they pledged to serve
