SO happy to hear you've had some ups again- praying he's stable long
enough
for the meds to work their miracles for Jelly!

Bob, I am right there with you trying not to get my hopes up when
things go
well for awhile but I'm SO happy that you had those good moments with
Jelly
today! I love how much you love your animals, I'm the same, mine are
all my
kids, I have a real soft spot for special needs animals.
I thought I'd ask since I'm dealing with this with Mo, have you
checked
Jelly's mouth for sores? Mo has a bunch on his palate that the vet
compared
to canker sores and said it makes swallowing painful. I've been giving
Mo
tiny syringes of Buprenorphine 2-3 times a day to help him eat. I just
thought I'd throw it out there in case Jelly could be helped with
something
like that too?
I hope you both are having a good evening and I'm willing the meds to
work
for Jelly from here!

the
little creatures that so many others overlook...

Been there and done that. You don't know which way to go, afraid if
you do euthanize him orher it will be a wrong decision and yet you do
not want them to suffer I would rather suffer great pain my self.
Right now, Annie is recovering from an upper respiratory infection and
since she is positive, it has me worried. I asked my vet about
Winstrol and Doxy and she is willing to try it. Thank you Lord. She
is eating, drinking and although she has lost a little weight, seems
to be doing well. Main thing now is she goes about the house meaowing
all the time. driving me nuts. She wants me to eight sit with her or
go to b ed so she can lay on my chest. I don't know she will do when
I go in hospital for a valve repalacement, will be gone for a week.
When I went in 4 days for broken arm, they all sat on me, grabbed hold
with ther claws as though trying to force me to stay home. They are
just recovering from that. Annie is quiet now, sitting on desk in
front of me. Hope your baby gets well, will keep you both in my
prayers.

Bob, I am thrilled you have seen a bit of improvement, though I get
your cautiousness as well. It could be something, it could be nothing,
but any improvement lifts the spirits a bit. Also, based on the lab
results I saw, it will take a long while to correct the abnormalities
there, so anticipate a long slow battle. Hopefully, you continue to
see bright-spots, and that those bright-spots increase in frequency
and duration.
Keep up the patient, kind work for little Jelly.
Amani
