Can it get any worse? Day 60

Lucky is bigger than ever so I ask about reducing the fluid. I have been researching again. Dr. M says, we will if we have to but we shouldn't not otherwise because there is a risk of infection.

Lucky's labs are worse. His albumin is down to 1.3, it was 1.8 a week ago. Dr. M advises me that if it gets to .8 or if Lucky has trouble breathing he will have to have a plasma transfusion to save him temporarily.

We have another talk about how much is too much. He talks I listen.

I make Lucky turkey burgers. He likes them today but will he like them tomorrow.
