Hi Wendy,
I'm guessing that a persistent low white blood cell count leaves
Ember (or any other animal in that boat) open to infection from
otherwise harmless germs.
Please pray that I'll be guided in the right treatment of Ember to
bring her wbc levels back up... that this isn't a precursor to her
immune system failing completely, and that, in the meantime, she
won't come into contact with anything in her seclusion that could
give her a secondary illness.
I appreciate your thoughts and prayers,
Lance
