It's definitely a good sign. Yesterday she was perkier than she's been since she was in the hospital and looked good enough to come home. I'm not sure if their criteria for releasing her includes eating as well as bloodwork.
I feel a bit less overwhelmed by the amount of work she'll need when she gets home. I spoke to a friend last night, and that helped me think about it differently. I am so afraid of messing up and killing her. But no matter what happens when she gets home, if I don't try she will die. So I need to think in terms of this being nothing but added time for her, and as long as it's a reasonably good quality of life for her, I shouldn't feel guilty.
I'm glad it worked out with your foster pup. It's a wonderful thing you do with them.
