Hideyo, You know how much I love you and admire you, I hope you keep that in mind while I speak frankly...  You need to get a grip on your emotions and stop stressing Naomi and yourself out so much.  You got the blood drawn finally, at least you've now had a second educated opinion that it is not FIP.  PLEASE stop sending Naomi signals that you expect her to deteriorate and pass.  That may be what happens, but you will only make matters worse with your energy being so frantic and pessimistic.  You need to breathe, girl.  You need to step back and realize that life and death are NOT in your control and stop blaming yourself before the fact for anything that might go wrong, or any weakness that Naomi might have come into this world with.  Not everyone born is meant to live a long, healthy life, some beings are only here for a short time.  Concentrate on making the time you have with her full of appreciation and acceptance.  Stop sending her the message that she is not 'good enough' the way she is.  She is telling you loud and clear that being stressed over and rushed to vets is not the way she wants to live her life.  Peace, love and harmony, while it may sound trite, can and does work miracles.  Start changing the energy you surround yourself and your loved ones with.  Know, as everyone of us already do, that whatever you do, it is out of love and concern and no matter what the outcome, it is enough.  It is all there is.

I felt so badly..) and they when they picked up she stopped breathing for a second,,, and looks like she was going to pass.. and the vet freaked out and so did I .. and she did mouth to mouth to her and brought her back.. did not know exactly what happened.. and took a while but she started breathing okay.. she thinks that since she is so stuffed out.. and couldn’t breath with stress she just went through.. oh my gosh,, you guys,, I would have regretted for the rest of my life if she passed away… I got so scared…   This vet does not think she has FIP.. but she is showing some unexplainable neurogical signs (tilting head and sort of wobbling head) and I am so scared.. her PCV was 20 and TP was 8 which is higher than I want it to be.. we will find out tomorrow from IDEXX regarding the total body function.. please please pray that she does not have FIP and there is a way that we can treat her and make her feel better.. she is just so precious…   Hideyo
