Further update - 8:45pm. Vet just called with an update. Lillianis getting fluids through a tube in her ear and she's not really doing syringe feeding well. She's presenting as stressed - hardly a surprise, as she will be missing the familiarity of our home and of course Henry - who is also looking a bit sad tonight - in all of this I suspect he is wondering where Lillian is and what is happening.
The vet did say that Lillian is passing blood in her urine - although she did explain that this was likely to be because the stone was attached to the bladder wall, removing it disrupts the bladder and an element of blood will be expected. It is not felt that the passing of blood is related to any complications. The wound itself is very small, the vet is delighted with that, and the wound is clean and healthy - again, all extremely positive at this stage.
They will allow Lillian home once she is eating independantly - and the nurse tonight will monitor Lillian and she has one guinea pig for company so it will be quiet except for the occasional wheek from her new companion.
We are getting an update in the morning and planning around Lillian coming home so I've got some work to do on the bedding and toiliet area.
Thank you all so much again for following and supporting Lillian through this.
