Mary made another night. She looks no better, but she doesnt look any worse either. The Iv bag still has 3500 in the bag, and the drip started running slower then it should during the night, i fixed it now and now hopefully we'll start seeing some improvement

Aww, glad you fixed the bag. And also glad to see she is hanging on! Hope to see some improvements for her, too. :fl

Now that the bag is dripping at the right pace it's close to empty. and i have noticed improvement! It's very small, but its something. It would appear that the sight is coming back in her eye. She's blinking now (She wouldn't at all before) and if i move my hand in front of it, she will flinch. The eye is still mostly clouded over however. Oh! and she is salivated much less then before.

Was her temperature low? Because with all that wool and not being able to get up, she may be too hot. Is that an electric blanket on her and a space heater? That might be overkill unless the vet recommended it. I understand you want to keep her comfortable, but seriously, with the wool that may be too warm. Just my two cents.

Yes her temperature was low :) The blanket isn't electric, its just a normal blanket! :) And the two heaters aren't plugged in at the moment as i'm afraid they'll start a fire. They're just there in case she gets too cold. And I'm constantly checking her skin to make sure she's not too hot.
