Please keep my Sassafras in your prayers....

[JACQUE]

My Sassafras has a very bad case of pancreatitis and needs our prayers. Cause is unknown as she does NOT get table food. She is fighting VERY hard but after 5 days still not improving. My heart is breaking for her. Her pancreas is at least 9 times larger than it should be and her tummy is very inflamed. Praying the meds start healing her soon before damage to her kidneys and liver sets in. :(

Praying for Sass and you Jacque, I hope she is doing better.

Love Kathi

UPDATE 10/26...took Sass to the Veterinary Specialty Hospital today...didn't hear anything encouraging...I am praying HARD!!! She will be there at LEAST a few days to a week unless she doesn't get any better...then we won't talk about the unthinkable...my heart is breaking. :(

I am so sorry Jacque.  I am praying for Sass and hope she will get well.  I know this is a rough time for you, try to be strong and believe that Sass will come through this.  Love and many prayers to you sweet friend.

Hi Jacque,

I'm glad to hear she's in the hospital, and I'm still praying and believing.

Love,

Hi Jacque,

Been thinking about you and Sassy all day. Any updates?

Love,

Jen

Hi All,

I just grabbed this update from Jacque's Facebook page. I don't think she will mind me sharing, they need our prayers.

UPDATE: My dog, Sassafras, seemed a little improved when I visited her yesterday but this morning the vet called and said she is going downhill again this morning. . Her liver is dark and enlarged as is her spleen. Her blood sugar is only 50. They are going to do the biopsy today and a liver panel and try to feed her with the feeding tube. They are also going to test her for Addison's disease. I don't know how much longer I can let her go thru this. It's seems she gives us just enough hope to continue and then she plummets again. My heart is very heavy

Jacque, we love you and thinking about you. Sassy is in my continued prayers.

Love,

Jen

Thank you so much Jen for posting my update here...just got a call from the vet and they said she is licking her food...hopefully that is a good sign...waiting for results from her tests today. sorry it takes me a while to update but there are sooo many people asking for updates it is hard to do them all at once. This whole ordeal is exhausting. At least my Mom is getting out of the hospital and into rehab today...I NEEDED some GOOD news.

Happy to hear about your Mom's progress. =) I know what you mean about updates, every day for me with our situation.

I hope this is a good sign, too!

Keep us posted when you can.

Love,

Jen

UPDATE ON SASSAFRAS...Her tests today did not fare well for her...they are going to do another biopsy w/cytology...should have results tomorrow but she had signs of cancer today in her liver. also they saw 2 fluid pockets in her pancreas that are new. Could be more infection. I should know more after my visit tomorrow (It may be time to give her peace ♥)
