Nurse treating Phoenix: 'She will have known love'

This just came in to Unleashed from Laura, a nurse who says she works at the hospital where Phoenix is being treated:

Hi all, I am a senior veterinary nurse at Metropolitan Veterinary Associates where Phoenix is being treated. She has been my patient for the last 2 days and I just wanted everyone to know that we are not out of the woods, but she is a strong little girl.
I have put my heart, soul and care into her and I wanted all to know that no matter what the outcome is, she will have known love and caring.
Thank you all for your support and keep her in your thoughts.
I promise to do my best for her. The doctors that are treating her are amazing and she is getting the upmost care and support

Comments

thank you so much! I know hard emotionally hard this work can be. I hope she gets to know love (and snuggles and kisses and walks and treats) for years to come.

Thank you, Laura, for the update and for putting everything into helping this poor little girl! I'm following Phoenix's story closely and hope that she makes it and that they find the monster who did this to her.

About Jill Rosen

Jill Rosen is a reporter at The Baltimore Sun. During her nearly 20 years in journalism, she has covered news and features — including a surprising number of stories that involved animals. There were the dog Christmas carolers in State College, Pa. There were the hounds who toured with a production of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. The story of a preschool teacher at Baltimore’s Father Kolbe School who had to replace her class guinea pig, who died over the winter holiday. A harrowing tale of what it was like to make homemade pet food ...

Though her clean freak of a mother refused to allow her to get a dog, she has had a number of pets through the years, including goldfish named Bob and Fingle, a betta fish named Ichabod, a wild rat terrier named Wendel, who she shared with a roommate, and, currently, sweet, sweet kitties named Leo Sesame and Milo Pumpkin and a little rescued pup named Teddy Bean. She, Leo, Pumpkin and Teddy Bean live in Baltimore.
