Fed up/ need advice

My sweet little 4 year old Archie has chronic pancreatitis. It’s under control now and he is on a prescription low fat diet. However he ALSO experiences bilious vomiting that is a precursor for his pancreatitis flare ups.

He is the PICKIEST eater on the planet. I’ve tried everything within what is allowed and low fat. I’ve added toppers, broths, played games with him, done nothing at all and “let him get hungry” but he is DEFIANT. I know gold standard is put the food down if he doesn’t eat pick it up, eventually he’ll get hungry. But I can’t do that because it causes his bilious vomiting and then it causes his pancreatitis flare ups. I’ve been dealing with this for 2.5 years. He is so so defiant that sometimes he’ll go a whole day and a half and not eat and then I obviously cave and add something new to his meals.

I just need some advice on what to do and how to manage this because honestly it has taken over my life. I feel so scared when he protests because I know what is coming next. We feed him twice a day on time everyday. Walk him. Build his appetite. Do it all.

Anyone?! Someone?! Please help!

Camp dog

We went car camping this weekend. So glad we brought a guard dog to watch over us! He took his job very seriously.

My 4 year old Booboo turned blind

I am on holiday myself for the next 3 weeks (really far away) and she’s with my ex whom she known since birth. I’ve always had suspicion and had a feeling her sight was quite bad, but whenever a drawn dog in let’s say an anime would fill the tv screen she’d immediatly start barking (horses too, on tv!) so I thought it can’t be that bad. I got her eyes checked 3 times since she’s on this earth.

It’s 02:00am here right now and I just got of the phone with my ex because she can’t see anymore, at least one eye is gone the other will be soon. Probably SARDS. She is happy, playful, cuddly and basically herself except for being a lot more insecure about jumping and stares into the distance sometimea (his words).

there is nothing we can do, she’s in the best hands and I am on the other side of the world. I am sobbing because I feel like I am not there for her and I cant explain what’s happening to her. I know smell is the way they see but I’m still sad that she probably wont see my face ever again when I put it close to hers for a kiss.

Any tips and words of encouragement welcome 🤍
