Roova Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Oh man what a tough situation for you both. I really hope she'll be alright and something is found to help her. Good luck Anne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Anne~ Posted June 29, 2016 Author Share Posted June 29, 2016 (edited) We now have a conclusive diagnosis. Olivia has come back home for her final days. Her skin problem is actually cancer and it's invading her body. She's been diagnosed with epitheliotrophic lymphoma. The hospital rang this morning to let me know her red blood cell count had dropped even further. Her red cell count is down to 17%. She also has an antibiotic resistant bacterial infection in her ear that they're not sure how to treat. She's comfortable and sleeping a lot. I've bought heaps of favourite food for her. All the things she's never been allowed to eat - roast chook, ricotta cheese, flavoured yoghurt and even little sachets of puppy food and adult dog food 'with gravy'. Looking at her skin, and her energy levels, I'm expecting we're talking days and not weeks. I can take some solace in the fact that she's apparently not in pain, just not feeling well and she's very, very tired.

Loving my Oldies Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 What a tough situation you and Olivia are in. It is so hard when you know they have very little time left and they are in our thoughts every waking moment.
