If you see Mr. A in the next few weeks, you may notice him sporting a naked neck. Thats because he just donated some blood to little Frosty! She is recovering daily, but her red blood cell count and blood protein levels are low. She has not been eating well, yet (who would, after having a dog bite through their intestine?!?), so we have been putting high calorie meals in her through a tube for the past couple days. Today, we are giving her a transfusion to replace her blood and protein levels, and sure enough, she is starting to eat a little on her own. We may decide to place a temporary feeding tube to allow her to get supplemental meals until she is eating enough calories to support herself on her own. It is quite the balancing act to decide how much to rely on her own bodys ability to heal and how much medical intervention she needs.
