Mercedes’ Story:
Mercedes was brought to Bethany Animal Hospital; her x-rays show a spinal fracture as well as a pelvic fracture. She will receive pain management and steroid treatments. Her films have been e-mailed to a surgical specialist friend of our vet for their thoughts. She does pee/poop on her own (that’s good!) and while she does not feel superficial pain in her hind limbs she does feel deep pain stimuli (also good). We hope the weekend on crate rest and medication will help.
Medical Update: Our little Mercedes slipped away from us this evening. We did everything we could for her, including letting her go in peace. Thanks to everyone for your thoughts, prayers and donations. Rest in Peace, Mercedes…
Mercedes is fine, now. I share your pain. Thank you.
You do very good work and she has no pain anymore.
Sometimes you have to love enough to let them go . I get real physical pain around my heart when I have to do it, but I truely know they will be there to greet us when we take that step.
I found this video about Mercedes on YouTube. What happened that she had to be sent home to God? 🙁
Rest in peace Mercedes
