Hello everyone. My little boy, Spencer, who is only 8 mos old is in dire straights.
He has been in the vet's care for 2 weeks now with terrible blood numbers. He has received a whole blood transfusion, plus 2 rounds of plasma. Still - his RBC, WBC, and platelets are very very low. He has bruising all over. He is pure white so the bruises are very easy to see. They will be doing a bone marrow aspiration tomorrow. He has tested negative for FelV - three times (as a small kitten, and two tests since all this trouble started). The vet is a specialist. She believes it is FelV. I'm just wondering why he has had no other signs - just all of a sudden he started bruising!!! I am just heartsick. My 13 year old sweetie was euthanized one year ago due to CRF. Now my new baby, who I am terribly attached to, has something horribly wrong. Any insight or comments would be appreciated. And, of course, prayers. thank you so much. Spencer's Mom
