Our day started at 4:45 a.m. Every buddy was sleeping when momma heard Lily licking her chops like she was going to throw up.
We ran to the bathroom sink. Just in time, my Lily spit up.
Suddenly..Lily was gagging like she couldn't breathe. I was so scared.
Mom was shaking. She swept Lily's throat with her fingers and pulled out something scary. Lily still couldn't breathe, mom pulled out more. Lily's life was saved.
CAUTION----the picture is purposely BLURRY since it is so so disgusting.
Lily usually does not eat anything she shouldn't. What could this be? It was VERY heavy and contained hair and hard-hard bits of tiny plastic.
At 5:15 a.m we took a car ride to the Urgent Care Clinic because Lil's gums and tongue were pure white. We thought the worse.
I was a nervous wreck. I was worried about my Lily.
Mom saved the monster stuff in a baggie and brought it to the hospital.
Dr. Daniels and the staff were awesome.
They took X-rays and took loads of time explaining everything.
Lil stayed at the hospital til late at night for observation - 6:30 p.m.
We picked her up. I was very concerned but thrilled to see her.
We headed home..thinking and thinking. Ugh huh, it looks like pieces of Nylabone. We did more research on our computer.
We did not find to many bad words regarding Nylabones, but somehow, over time it appears tiny pieces have stayed in Lily's belly. Well, all our Nylabones are in the trash. Lily gets to eat rice and cottage cheese for two days. YummmmmE.
I am so happy Lily is getting better. If mom wasn't home to save her.....
From now on I will block the door so she can't get in. I want to keep my eye on her.
Have a grateful day and take a moment to smell the roses.
Luv
Benny & Lily
