Man, I was really hoping my regimen would get us through. Nope, the hormones have spiraled. I hope she leaves this implant alone and it helps for the full six months.

wake up to this

then when done with the implant, docs let you enjoy the high rather than reversing it.

Why does she need these implants?

Oh sweet little baby girl oh my gosh
:crycry::sad3::sad7::cry3:
All my love.
Xtra warmth
I like tge radiant heat panel called sweeter heater as found on Amazon tge smallest size is enough. It will save her calories. Won't burn her
Xtra calories
I would really try to mix up some baby burd formula and add to something she will eat. Or see if you offer warm and thick like yogurt from your fingers. She can need up to 5x the calories to heal.
Millet spray can add a few calories andcbe tempting if off feed.
She us already on the thin side in pictures.
My vet let me give a dab of smooth peanut butter every day must have no artificial sweetners! To help my girl gain back weight

She is only down 3 grams. She adores raw almonds and a few other things. Also the extra pain meds will give her increased appetite. I have emeraid critical care on hand as I give Amada 2mls twice a day.
Your support suggestions are great!

This morning all her skin was not red like it has been so hopefully that means it's already working.

Yes and I also have almond butter. I do have some freeze dried pumpkin and blueberry puree I can give her. She's eating on her own, she just doesn't feel good. Her weight will improve but it's going to take a bit with all the meds she's getting on top of everything. I have a wide variety of medical issues here and usually keep those fosters who require a lot. She'll be okay.

Oh and my granddaughter was too cute. When they were showing us the implant site..."oh you shaved her"...her back is also plucked. Vet said nope, she did that all on her own for us.

I am so sorry. She is very fortunate to have you to be watching over her.
