worst night ever....
so, wednesday I took sophia and petey to the vet to get them puppy drugs for the plane, and to get sophia's booster shots for all of those doggy diseases. Danny was in california taking eli to chip's house. I thought, damn, what am I going to do tonight with all of this free time (since finals were over and danny was gone)....so i got ready for a relaxing night. I was going to do a face masks, pedicure, manicure, etc....
but around 8pm, sophia started acting weird. she came up to me on the couch and just stared at me, and then started smashing her face against the back of the couch. I looked at her, and she had all of these swollen bumps around her nose....that's wierd, they have never been there before. But as I stared at her, her face swelled right infront of my eyes....really bad. I started FREAKING OUT. I called the vet. no answer. so i looked online for the closest emergency vet....I called....and they said she was having a severe allergic reaction to her vaccines and I needed to bring her in immediately.
so I freaked out some more. I ran to my closest and through on the clothes that I first touched. bad outfit i might add. I turned around and saw sophia down the hall vomiting uncontrollably! Like 6 times in the matter of a minute. Yea, panic by now had set in. and by this time, her face was so swollen I could barely stare at her.....
....we ran down the stairs to the car, and i tripped in the process pulling my hamstring (which is not in serious pain). I drove in hysterics to the vet which thankfully was just down the street. I walked in a freakin wreck. Sophia's face was so swollen that her eyes were pretty much shut. Her entire body was on fire with hives, and everything was itching and swollen....not just her face.
I was such a mess, they had to take her to the back because I was working myself up and in the process making sophia more stressed.
after a few hours, the doctor finally came in and told me she was going to be okay. A pretty penny and a few shots later, she was ready to go home. The poor thing. I hope I never see her like that again....my poor baby.
And tonight we leave for our glorious trip to buffalo. we are so excited! minus the flight of course.
