Minnie - renewed vibes needed

[Diflower]

After I'd posted, Minnie tried to walk across the room and her back legs collapsed. She wanted to go out, her legs were collapsing.
I phoned Bb who thankfully was nearly home. The vet has another branch in the next town and they're open so phoned them and took her.
Lovely vet lady very concerned, the collapsing is due to weakness. She was worried the blood count would have gone down, so took blood and did the test while we were there. Don't know what I said originally but I'd got the figures wrong.
Normal is 35-65, on Thursday Minnie's was 19.
She warned us that if it was below 10 it was grim; her eyelids and gums by now were white and she was panting heavily. We waited.
She came back, blood count had not dropped, so she was still worth them and us trying whatever we could.

She is there, they were going to give her the steroid dose by injection, with some anti-sickness (or something), but mainly put her on oxygen. We're to go back at 10 to 5, hopefully the oxygen will have helped and we can bring her home.

Oh no Di - this really isn't the news I came on here looking for.

Huge vibes for poor little Minne. She is in the right place and they will be doing everything possible.

Fingers crossed for you all. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

She is home
The vet gave her an anti-sickness injection, and a steroid injection. The steroid is a 3-day dose but we're to give her the steroid pills again tomorrow evening.
We have anti-sickness pills to give her half an hour before those pills and some for Monday.
Also have 2 tins of the ID food, which is for gastrointestinal disorders as well, so can give her that by the teaspoonful - and hope she likes it.

She still couldn't walk properly, back legs giving way, but was excited to see us. The vet too is encouraged by the blood count, normally it goes down before going up, as the pills take time to have any effect. It's all they and we can do, and hope for the best, it could go either way.
