"Let me out" says Daisy as she gets picked up from the MVS hospital after a 3 day ordeal of waiting for her Neutrophils (most abundant type of the white blood cells) to rise from "zero" to normal levels. She had to be in the ICU as dogs are susceptible to infectious disease when Neutrophils are low:
Immediately upon her return home she went straight to her toy chest, began crying (whimpering) and searched frantically for that special toy to cuddle up with (seems to be a pattern). She did this the last time she returned home from a long stay at MVS. She seems to miss her pink toys the most:
Daisy has always favored her pink toys....is this because she is such a girly girl maybe??....a cute coincidence is that Neutrophils are also "pink" when viewed under the microscope (other white blood cell types stain as blue, red etc).
