I'm hanging on by a thread. We lost our 13 yr old cat last week due to liver cancer. She died at home in my arms, so it was very peaceful. I felt guilty because I was almost relieved. It was a long 3 months of near constant care. Syringe feedings and baths and messy cleanups. I was exhausted and on the day she died I called my husband and basically said you need to come home and help me, I can't do this anymore. She died a few hours later.
Now our 6 yr old cat Fiona is critically ill with fluid in her lungs due to severe pneumonia or cancer. Vet can't really figure out which because her lungs are so bad and the xrays aren't showing obvious cancer unless it's hiding in her cloudy lungs. So now I'm back to 3 times a day syringe feeding and heavy doses of antibiotics. My vet funds are officially beyond maxed and I'm just hoping that no one else gets sick. Anywho, if you made it this far thanks for listening. Just needed to vent a bit before I go insane.
