It was a week ago, 3rd March 2012, when I was allowed to pay a visit to the vet where Hayley was treated. All these while, I sometimes cried out loud, I sometimes cried silently and sometimes, I even have no tears to drop. Never in my life I feel such pain when seeing Hayley undergone seizure... When she was sent to the vet, I could imagine her left abandon in a cage and being isolated; people around me would comfort me by saying things might not be the way I pictured. Indeed, I felt slightly better when I heard those comfy words but deep inside, I trust no one... No one would take good care of Hayley as we take care of her.. Regardless how professional they promised the vet could be.. Reality is still reality and it is no way near the scenes shown in drama series... And yes, my imagination was right... When my dear and I went through the troubles in finding the clinic, what appeared in our eyes was a stray looking pup, dirty, not energetic at all and discharge was all over the eyes... Jesus Christ, it was not the same Hayley I sent to the pet shop weeks ago... She can barely walk.. All she could react when she saw us was to struggle to stand up and used her very limited energy to wag her tail... My poor girl.. How could I still have the heart to let you undergo the treatment again?

Entered the consultation room, the vet explained her situation to us saying that if it was distemper that attacked her, she would have died within 20 days but she has already exceeded the critical period so would not be distemper attack. Still, she is having slight cough.. Seeing her condition, I felt so painful as she was not in a healthy condition at all.. That triggered me so much until my dear asked the vet whether we could take her home and take care of her by ourself. The vet immediately agreed and all my pain turned to joy!

We took her to our vet and the vet said she was very weak... She prescribed some medicine and said hope her immune system would win the war... Yes, I do pray the same too. Immediately when we reached home, I gave Hayley a deep wash and she was still weak but as soon as I dried her, she started to be playful. She even responded when we called her name! She still know her name!! After cleaning her, I then prepared food for her and she ate like never been eating before... Poor Hayley... After her meal, she regained her energy and started to play around, biting our hands to ease her gum itchiness and chasing Hugo for his tail. That;s the Hayley I wanted to see.

Today, 10th March, she is finally healthy enough to be vaccinated! And her body temperature is absolutely normal! I do not know how long she can fight for her disease. All I know is, as long as she  never give up, neither will I... That is the promise I could made for her.
