Laura,
It breaks my heart to hear about Ziggy's retest being positive. He's
one lucky kitty to have found you. It may not always feel like it with
everything you are going through, (we all know how heart wrenching it
can be), but you are so very fortunate as well. Keep telling him that,
love him and BE with him. Never stop believing in miracles. Where
there is life, there is hope.

Poor Ziggy! About 6 months ago I told all of you that Ziggy's second
feline leukemia test came back negative and he was ok and cured. Well
I was wrong. He was losing weight and just not acting like himself
(he was hiding and not playing with the other kitties). So i took him
to the vet last night for an emergency appointment. They restested
him and he was positive. On top of that he has an ear infection and
his blood work came back really low. His red cell count was
horrible. So they kept him over night and ran tests. They put an IV
in and gave him a blood tansfusion. Today they are going to do a bone
marrow aspiration to see if his bone marrow is producing and blood
cells. So the vet said that the long term prognosis is poor at best
but i'm hoping he can make it through this to come home for a bit. So
I should be writing back soon to keep you updated on Ziggy's
condition. Thank you,
Laura
