Dear Noelle has had a terrible time of it.  Her regurgitating did not stop so the Specialists had to put in an NG (Nasogastric) Tube to remove as much of the fluid in her stomach as possible.  It has slowed down since the tube has been inserted but she has also not been allowed to eat.  The Internist scoped her yesterday to determine the cause of the regurgitating.  The best we can come up with is that she has developed Pancreatitis.    She is being treated for that in the hopes it will clear up her symptoms.   She will have to remain in ICU until the NG Tube has been removed and she can normally eat again.

To say we are upset and distraught over this wonderful dog is an understatement.  We love and adore Noelle.  We are doing everything possible to give her back her Life.   As long as Noelle is fighting to be here, we are going to remain diligent with her medical care.  She could have died so many times and has rallied every time.   All we are doing is supportive care for her condition while she is in ICU.   She is not on any machines keeping her alive.   She is alive because she wants to be her.  

Quality of Life is a top Priority for us with any animal we take in.   She is comfortable and is surrounded by unconditional Love.  If she crashes, we will allow her to pass.  We will not bring her back.   We feel very strongly about not allowing any of our animals to suffer.   When they have had enough and give up, we support that decision and surround them with an abundance of Love and Care to help them cross over the Rainbow Bridge peacefully.

ICU is quite expensive, any amount you can spare to help us with her Medical Care would be greatly appreciated.   She also needs lots and lots of Prayers.
