Macarena, I saw your post on Agonic and would to share a story of hope. Almost 2 years ago, a lady showed up at my door with a tiny 2 week old kitten in box. A little black & white "cow" kitty with a horrible head injury. The kitten had been thrown from a passing car in front of her workplace. This tiny kitten had a very severe swelling on the brain and was in a coma. I cried knowing her probable fate. I had my boyfriend drive me to the emergency vet, expected the outcome to be euthanasia. Well, the vet talked me into not euthanizing her (talk about a switch, ..I'm usually the one saying "Save them, save them!!") and told me to take her home, tube feed her and let the swelling go down. It took weeks and when she finally came to and could walk, she could only walk in circles, indicating permanent neurological damage had occurred. Again, knowing that quality of life was not good for a cat that could only walk in tight circles, I scheduled a appt. for euthanasia. The day of her appt, o! nly 30 mins prior to her appt time, with all of the family crying and sitting around kissing and hugging her, a miracle occurred.
I set Kellie down on the floor, and she walked 3 circles to the right, 3 circles to the left and all be damned, walked perfectly straight !! This little girl wanted to live. Kellie is now almost 2 and is the love of our lives. She is still blind from the cruelity she endured, but is fully mobile (hops around like a bunny!!), silly, playful, plays rough & tumble with other cats, plays momma to the any new foster baby I bring in and is oh so funny. She makes us all laugh and everyone who meets her, loves her!! Kellie gets around just fine and uses her whiskers and sense of smell to get around and find the other cats so she can do a sneak attacks on them !! Love and faith can heal the worst wounds. That said, I have a feeling little Agonic will be just fine. He is in good hands. Denise
