Doris
Things are not looking good for Doris Katz now. The mystery ailment seems to only be getting worse. Shes down to liquids only in her diet, which for the moment means water and milk. I'm thinking of thinning some food into liquid or feeding her low-sodium chicken broth also. She does not seem to be in pain, so that's a mercy. She sleeps all day now, only getting up to drink a bit and say hello when we come home in the afternoon. Our local veterinarian seems to strongly believe that, at her probable age, she has cancer somewhere. With the eye out, one might guess it is already in her brain so I see not treatment option if that is what we're dealing with. But we don't really know for certain, so I have made an appointment for her with a specialist in Decatur. The soonest they could see her is Tuesday morning. Hopefully, she will get through the weekend okay on liquids. Then we might be closer to knowing what, if anything, to do for her.
