I'm glad we only budgeted a day and a half there. Even with taking a several-hour detour out to Devin castle, we had way more time than we needed to see the city. It is, however, really really cheap.

Getting two phone calls (from a number I didn't recognize) followed by a text message from my vet,letting me know that Isis has ketones in her urine, starting at midnight, then continuing well past 2 am and finally resolving at 6 am (local; midnight EDT) when little Sarah got her all checked in to the vet school.

So, naturally, I got about 3 hours of sleep, if that, which meant I spent half the day feeling sick to my stomach. Then I got all dehydrated and stuff. And I didn't get my morning coffee.

So anyway, we're in Budapest now, and we've had palacinky (crepes, aka palatschinken in Austria), and I got a coffee a bit ago, which did wonders for my headache. My brain no longer feels like it's being squeezed.

I heard from Sarah that internal medicine is taking Isis' case now, which is probably good news, if it's anything like people hospitals. She's out of the ER, anyway, and into general medicine. I don't appear to have made any notes regarding the exact progress the first time at the vet school in my DW. I don't know if she was admitted to the ICU at all; we can't get any info from the vet school. Sarah's kindly being our go-between, but she hasn't heard any further details.

Hopefully since they were checking urine ketones every 12 hours at the vet clinic (where she's being boarded while we're gone), they caught it early enough that it'll be easy to treat and she can go back to the clinic tomorrow afternoon/evening. And not have another sleepless night for us while they play text message tag.
