    Little Alba is having one of her toughest days today. It’s been very up and down and some little set backs. Her body is just under extreme pressure. It’s not all bad news and I’m still hopeful. She could do with your prayers / thoughts or whatever you do 🙏… (1/6) 🧵

    She started the day well and to be honest I’m still amazed she is alive in some way. He 4th sunrise since she arrived (2/6)

    It was a small thing but we decided to clip her nails. They were horrific and she could barely walk with. She was a little angle when doing this although I’m sure it’s because she is exhausted as well (3/6)

    Alba slowed right down on her food. She is now on stronger medicines to try kill the blood parasites. She would only take a few small bits of beloved salmon. (4/6)

    We got the vet to come and put her on a small drip. She’s struggling to stay hydrated. Her little body is just trying to fight off so many things at once. Shes absolutely not giving up but it’s tough on her (5/6)

    Anybody who has been very sick knows there are some little set backs and harder days. Our plan is a big sleep and then up for Sunset number 5 tomorrow. We didn’t know if we’d make it this far but here she is. Keep those 🤞💜 (6/6)
