Spicey's pancreatitis

Spicey has continued to go downhill despite yesterday's treatments with
anti-neasea, fluids, and antibiotics. So today, I gave her over to TED for
and IV and continued intensive treatment.
She's scheduled to remain at the hospital for the next two or three days,
and she'll get x-rays and ultrasound as well. She apparently has chronic
pancreatitis, an issue that I'd taken her to the vet before to check for
cancer - but cytology was inconclusive.
They'll give me daily or twice daily updates on her progress. I'm filled
with regret that in these last days, she's been hiding in the a cold tiled
corner or poked and prodded at the vet.
Just last week, I woke up to find her meatloafing on my chest for the first
time, purring and patting my nose occasionally. I saw her dash up to Buster
and start chewing on his throat, while he tolerantly turned his cheek like
he was putting up with a kiss from his aunt.
I just have a fear that I won't see her again.
Oh Tak! I'm sorry to hear this sad development. Purrs for you and for
Spicey.
Know this: She has been happy with you. You really turned her around
after adopting her after Suz died. She came out of her shell. I still
think "how wonderful" every time I think about you adopting Spicey.
Purrs.
