(crossposting to get all the positive thoughts and good vibes we can!)
Maggie got hit by a car tonight.
She was chasing a rabbit, ran under a fence, and was hit and rolled by a car. The car stopped long enough to let her run out from under, but then continued on!!!!!
Luckily some good samaritans stopped and took Maggie and I to the vet. She was started on fluids to combat shock and xrayed. They thought there might be a possible diaphramatic hernia, so we were sent to the Purdue small animal clinic.
They re-examined her, did an EKG, and checked the xrays. They think she escaped major injury (they doubt there's a hernia), but will keep her overnight for observation. She is currently stable and under great care, but not out of the woods yet. The next 24 hours are critical!
I'll talk to the vet student in charge of her case tomorrow and find out when I can visit/take her home.
Keep her in your thoughts everyone - she's a special girl. I'll update as I can.
