As I mentioned earlier this week, my Simon's hepatic lipidosis flaired up again this week when I was in New York. Dan got him in to see the vet, I came back a little early, and I've been treating him all week and giving him drugs and talking to our AZ vet and doing the regular forced feedings, etc.
Well, he wasn't getting better. Yesterday morning I took him to the emergency vet when his legs gave out and he turned back into a floppy stuffed animal like he did the last time, only this time they couldn't fix him in time. He had acute liver failure and I chose to let him die a few hours later.
Dan is in Arizona visiting his family, but
lxbean came to be with us in the emergency room, and
trillian_stars joined me shortly thereafter so I did not have to be alone. I am lucky to have such good friends who care. It is still the crappiest day ever just the same. Ever.
