Update on Patches

So my very sick kitty is still sick. The good news is that it isn't cancer. The bad news is that she has late stage hepatic lipidosis. She's as yellow as a school bus folks.

Itchy took her to work today to put in a feeding tube and to do a liver biopsy. After opening up her abdomen, they saw that her stomach had been perforated. Eta: It came close but didn't actually perforate.

I love her, but geez she is stupid. She had eaten a plastic star (Stowa and I had used them for craft projects). It was hard plastic. Five sharp points.  If it had gone into her intestine, she'd be dead.

Her liver looks like crap. Hopefully with a feeding tube in place and a ton of meds to help her stomach heal, she'll be ok. We shall see. Itchy is confident that she will recover. I'm confident that Itchy knows what he is doing.
