Updates - Elvin is hospitalized....

so i maybe half a day late to rush Elvin to the Vet.....

:(

the dr said he's overheated (what's the english word for 中暑 stroke?) I was kinda surprised b/c i don't even bring him anywhere - most of the time he just stayed home!!!!!

and the nurse said that it's probably b/c we only left him sleep in the kitchen at nite (which kinda offended b/c he has been living w/ us like that ever since he was with us - he's not the type of dog from alaska or sth so how do i know he needs a/c 24 hrs???) ANYWAY.. he was still okay 2 days ago, why all of a sudden he's NOT okay?? it has been hot ALL WEEK this wk since last wk, why only now??

the Vet took him in and said he has to be "吊鹽水", hospitalized and "observe"... the nurse said situation is really bad as he's over heated (she claims its' so high that she can't even take her body temperature!) anyway, since he's over heated his blood vessel may also be "amplified" and may cause internal bleeding - which won't know in the until later (is it really THAT SERIOUS!??!?!??!) he can't walk b/c his palms and feet are all infected (due to the high body temp)....

i heard she ordered other nurses to get ready setting up ice pack / cooling towels.....

no clue how long he'll stay, only know we can only visit him daily from 14:00 - 18:00 (who can make this hrs when one has to work!!!) omg... I'm not ready to loss elvin yet.. his toys are all over the living room, what do you mean he's leaving?????? no, i'm not ready..........

life sucks....
