Sadness















Levi is deteriorating, trying to be positive but its hard. Besides what I can see him going through physically, his blood was checked Friday and his proteins are even lower in spite of the meds and food. He's demonstrating pain for the first time, pain where I'm not sure, I suspect his back legs, side effect from the Prednisone even though he really hasn't been on it long term?, I just don't know. No answers, Sunday, holiday weekend, his specialist is hard to reach anyway even during the week. His regular vet is very pessimistic about his chances, although he admittedly is not really familiar with either disease Levi has. I haven't given up, there are other meds to try, but its really hard to watch him feeling so bad. My easy going, always dependable Levi is sick and in pain, and his stoicism is wearing thin.
