Camilla, AIHA-dog from Italy

[Vally]

How has Camilla been, Eleanora? Any more sick episodes? You’ll be amazed at how ridiculous you can be now whenever any little thing happens. When I take Bingo to the vet for something minor, I must always act a bit crazy, I’m sure. The vets I know now are very patient with me though.

The people I work with think I’m crazy, my friends think I’m crazy, my family thinks I’m crazy. That’s okay, I probably am a bit more crazy than I was before. It’s one of the symptoms of the Paranoia Club.

Hi Eleonora

How is Camilla doing now? Any more episodes of vomiting? I’m hoping the domperidone has helped.
I’m sorry to read that you have so many difficult tings to cope with at the moment. You are doing amazingly well, and by the way, your English is incredible!
Any little bit of nonsense worries us all – you are not alone, and as you say, a member of our paranoid club! It’s a very elite group :)

I hope Camilla is feeling lots better.

Best wishes,

Mary and Mable x

Hi girls! Camilla is ok now: after 3 days of domperidone no more episodes of vomiting! I have the result of the last blood count: she has 6.150 RBC!!!!!! When i took the paper with the result i can’t believe my eyes!!!!!! Now that she’s in normal range i think that in this week-end we’ll organize somthing to do with her….maybe we’ll go on the beach …. :)) now i must do something for her spirit: i see she’s sad because in the last 4 months we didn’t nothing but some little walk around our home.

Hi Eleonora

Huge improvement – congratulations once again. So glad her tummy is OK now too. I’m sure you will think of something lovely to do now she is feeling better! Gently does it until she gets her strength back. And yes – your English is superb.

Love Sheena & the boys xxxxx

as we say in italy “chi va piano va sano e va lontano” that literally in english i think it could sounds like “who goes slowly, goes safely and goes far away” . i’m thinking about something funny for her but without stress. even just to have the chance to walk in a grass without a leash i think it could be beautiful for her (currently we live in the city, in an apartment, so camilla always comes out with the leash … and she doesn’t really like it!!!)

Eleonore,
I am so happy Camilla is doing better! I think the Italian proverb could be the motto for this disease! I remember my mother saying it to me because I was always running as a child:) There certainly is no rushing with this AIHA. You are doing such a great job! I am sure you will find something to lift Camilla’s spirits, you know her well and know what she would love to do. If it can’t be grass, I am sure she would love it if you just go on the floor with her and play with one of her favorite toys!
Best wishes,
Brigitte

hi girls!Yesterday the weather wasn’t nice, it was cloudy but fortunately it wasn’t rainy. so we decided not to go too far from home. we took Camilla in a fenced field of which our friends have the keys (once was a field for agility-dog, now it’s just a grass) and she played with her friend Rum (we say “her boyfriend “…. they are both neutered but there is much feeling between them and Rum is very jealous of Camilla!). Rum is the dog of our friends,he is a mestizo. we were at the camp only an hour not to tire them too. Even Rum in fact was very bad: he was diagnosed with Addison’s disease, in practice his adrenal glands do not produce cortisol then he should take the prednisone. Now he’s fine. it was so long that Camilla and Rum were not playing together then they had a great time! when we returned home Camilla was a little tired but happy and she started to sleep snoring! I try to upload some photos from my phone ….have a nice day!
