Purrs and prayers for Catnipped
Catnipped was rushed to the emergency room on Thursday around noon. 10:30PM
Thursday night they found out a portion of her intestine had died due to no circulation. By midnight she was being operated on and had two and a half feet of intestine removed. She has infections in her abdomen, blood and kidneys, her body temperature is a little over 93. As the doctor explains it to me her condition is beyond critical. If she makes it through the 1st 2 weeks her prognosis will be much better. She is looking at a minimum 1 week in ICU and about 8 weeks before a second surgery to reconnect her stomach and intestines. The good news is that even though she has a tube down her throat and 10 IV's going at the same time (literally, I counted them) she is awake, responding, complaining and making the nurses jump through hoops for her. They tell me this is actually a good thing. She is able to gesture and shake her head yes or no to questions. She had told me before the surgery to let this group know what was happening and I asked her today if this was still her wish. She shook her head emphatically yes. So I ask, please, that purrs and prayers be sent her way, she has a long road ahead and I will bring her messages to her until she is able to respond to them herself.

Many purrs coming from here for her. But please will no-one "ever" again have a stomach stapling operation because you think you might be too fat. |

Purrs coming from the cats for CatNipped and her family. I'm sending healing thoughts as well and hoping that the surgery is very successful and she will be on the road to recovery. Debbie |

(assuming her husband?) Catnipped was rushed to the emergency room on Thursday around noon. 10:30PM Thursday night they found out a portion of her intestine had died due to no circulation. By midnight she was being operated on and had two and a half feet of intestine removed. Do they know what caused it? She's my friend BTW. Tell her 'cshenk' is purring for her and she's got 2 wagtails as well. in ICU and about 8 weeks before a second surgery to reconnect her stomach and intestines. The good news is that even though she has a tube down her throat and 10 IV's going at the same time (literally, I counted them) she is awake, responding, complaining and making the nurses jump through hoops for her. They tell me this is actually a good thing. Yes, though I've only been a nurses aide when it came to patient care and many years ago, it's a good thing. I infer she has a colostomy setup just now? shake her head yes or no to questions. She had told me before the surgery to let this group know what was happening and I asked her today if this was still her wish. She shook her head emphatically yes. Thank you. Some of us really care about her. I am one of them. If things get odd here, my email is and I have her regular email but do not know if you can access it. Just let us know how Lori is ok? Carol |

Had she ever even had such surgery, that was a low blow at this time. |
