‼️Delilah Update‼️
Since our last update of Delilah having a prolapse things have gone from bad to worse. After her prolapse correction surgery things started to get worse, she was very lethargic, quiet and refusing to eat. Today she was taken back to the vets for a check up and on an ultrasound scan it was found that she had an intussusception. An intussusception is a life threatening condition in which the intestines start to slide inside themselves. For this she required emergency surgery and has been rushed to Dick White Referral to have life saving surgery. That being said we do not know what the outcome will be as it all depends on how badly the intestines have become and if they are still viable. We later found out that what was coming out of her wasn’t actually a prolapse but her intussusception. We are waiting by the phone on tenterhooks to hear whether it’s been a good outcome. We were made aware that if there is to much damage then she may need to be euthanised on the operating table but we are praying that being the fighter that she is that she will be ok and overcome this. If she does pull through she will be required to stay there for 3 days to be closely monitored for sepsis. As you can imagine sending her to a referral centre has been far from cheap and we have been estimated £7000 for surgery and hospitalisation which payment will be required on collection of her. Although we raised quite a bit most of it has already been spent on her burns recovery. We know that Delilah has touched so many hearts and we really hate to ask again as so many people have already dug deep to contribute towards her burns but we would be really grateful for any help we can get towards her surgery. We will be sure to update everyone as soon as we know how the surgery has gone. For now we pray that she is in the best hands with top specialists and that she comes out fighting. After everything she has been through we simply cannot give up on her now.
