Hi Stacy sorry to hear that Scotty got beamed up.
I've had pairs of rescued baby rabbits twice, years ago. Sweet little critters.
For months I was telling my brother that my stars looked bad and that I thought someone I know was going to die. The Leo eclipse was at my Mars Saturn midpoint.
About a week after the eclipse my 16 year old cat Batman started to get sick. I sent him to the vet who said he was dying . They wanted to euthanize him, but he was in and out of coma so had him brought home where a few hours later he passed on. He will reincarnate like your pal Scotty. No one stays dead.
So the eclipse did kill someone close to me.
I use to tell people he was the best dang dog a man ever had and he didn't bark much neither.
For Iron uptake natural Vitamin C can help the iron. Raw citrus {not packaged juice} or raw rose hips is a good source of C.
Sometimes Magnesium can help relieve pain. Magnesium Taurate might be good.
Hops is good for pain.
Consider seeing a naturapath in your area they may help you greatly.
Chlorophyll helps build blood so green drinks a couple a day may help you. Blend your own fresh and raw, Green lettuce ,algae, beet greens , celery, dandelion leaves, Kale with real apple cider is nice, add some raw Red beet too.
Beets are a good safe absorbable form of iron, Brazil nuts too, toss it all in your blender.
There are herbs and vitamins that can target the blood and make it work better. For micro trace -minerals Pink Himalayan salt or Celtic salt are excellent. Supermarket salt is very poor for nutrients, it has none. Organs , bones and joints need genuine salt. For B vitamins Brewers yeast and Nutritional Yeast are the best, both are recommended because they are a bit different.
I hope your health improves.
