More Good News
Luna's 3rd sonogram revealed that the mysterious spot on her bladder is 95% gone! We are very relieved with the good news. The thinking is that the inflammation was caused by cystitis. We have to keep an eye out to make sure this condition does not reoccur.
While Luna has been on antibiotics for almost a month, her cough has not cleared up. This has me very concerned because I was thinking that she also had some type of infection in her chest. We decided to do another chest x-ray to take a look at things. The spot on her lungs was still there, with little to no change since her last chest x-ray a few weeks ago. Since we know more about the bladder now, our vet is diagnosing this as bronchial disease. She has been put on medicine to help with her cough, but there really isn't anything we can do to cure it. It is more of a maintenance thing.
While bronchial disease is not great, it certainly is better than a collapsed trachea. Sol's trachea issues have me super concerned about trachea issues in Benjamin, Henry and Luna and I was very glad to see that the x-ray showed that Luna's trachea is in tip top shape.

great news for our sweet luna babe.prayers are being said for her each and everyday.
Superb news! I had a few qualms over the weekend wondering if something more was amiss. Little Miss Looney Tunes has come through once again for all her adoring fans. What a breath of relief. I imagine there was dancing in your house this weekend. The boys were probably wondering what all the fuss had been about and would now like to know if they could go back to being ornery big brothers.
BTW, how do you keep cystitis at bay?
I am so happy for Miss Luna. She is such a precious little girl. I know her brothers are relieved also. Yesterday was my Sassy’s 5th birthday. Each one got a plain cheeseburger from McDonalds for the birthday celebration. I am so blessed to have my two babies and my grand dog. They light up my life. Happy Monday to each of you.
what a relief. as obpers read this corrine, do you hear the sighs of relief? i know i let out a big one, as well as a prayer of thanks to st. francis.
i know you will be diligent in keeping the bronchial disease under control. your record of keeping on top of everything assures the best for sweet luna.
happy belated 5th birthday to sassy. i bet everyone enjoyed her birthday with cheesburger treats.
I am VERY happy to hear Luna’s results! A sweet way to start off the week!
Luna is the ultimate survivor, isn’t she? From whatever caused her scars before she came to live with Corinne and the boys, to her eye problems, and now this? Wow! God Bless her, she just keeps on conquering one thing after another!
