Stable night until 5:30 a.m., when her breathing quickened.
After an aspiration, we called in the physiotherapist and then the doctor. It seems to be bronchospasm again.
Treated with Atrovent, then increased with Precedex, Gabriel calmed down.
Why does he do these episodes?
A chest X-ray showed improvement in his atelectasis: a good sign.
The day was stable.
Our little champion is as handsome as ever.
This evening, Gabriel gave me another scare: all of a sudden, his saturation dropped to 90, for no apparent reason.
I call the physiotherapist: she gives him a massage… Nothing, then suction… nothing, then increase oxygen to 3. Nothing…
We call the doctor. Meanwhile, the physiotherapist checked the tube at the back of his head. It had bent: the oxygen was no longer getting through.
Phew, that’s all it was!
Back to normal now. Time for a good night’s sleep!
PS: I think this time a solution has been found for our pompom cat, she should stay in a little corner of paradise in Tatajuba.
