Another restless night, but not as troubled as Friday and Saturday. His eyes and gums are very yellow from the jaundice, he's finding it painful to move but his temperature is now set below 40. At the risk of tempting fate it looks as though the cortisone is kicking in. This morning he's had some tiny slivers of roast chicken and liver and he is sitting at the front door on a plumped up pillow keeping an eye on Wilf. There is a hint of mischief in his attitude.
Thank you again for all your comments of support and advice - they have certainly cheered us up. For the first time in four days we are looking on the bright side.
Off to the vets for a check up and a hydration drip as some of you suggested. Will post later.
Paws and fingers crossed. Eating is a good sign, huh?
ReplyDeleteXXXOOO Daisy, Kendra & Bella
Oh Angus. Once again, I couldn't sleep from worry, and have padded down the hall to turn on the computer and check on the boy. This is so hopeful. I will head back to bed now with another prayer on my lips.
ReplyDeleteOh - oh! Digby - we DO so hope you're on the homeward stretch with this - we're keeping all our paws crossed for you. Hang in there buddy - everyone out here is rooting for you. Schnauzer snuggles - JD and Max.
ReplyDeleteDear Angus, the Font, Wilf and dear Digby!

We came sniffing over from Max's blog, and have done some backtracking here to catch up with what has been happening. It is so hard when rough times come like this, but there is always hope and prayers, and we are adding ours to the mix. You have a lot of people that care holding you up and praying for the best for all of you.
ReplyDeleteIt is so good to hear that there is a bit of good news in this last post. We all have our paws crossed here in Corgi Country, for Digby and the rest of you that love him so much, and like we mentioned, Grammy is praying...
