Big, big, BIG prayers needed for Allie- UPDATE on #148

[Medusa]

Well, that certainly sounds encouraging to me. I think you're right; the tide is turning. Better and better......

[krazyaboutkatz]

This is a very encouraging update and I do believe that she's slowly getting better. Lots more prayers and positive thoughts are being sent her way.

That's great news. Keep it up Allie.

Like I said in Myndi's thread - hope springs eternal.

What a great update!! I would have been crying with joy!!

Keep up the great efforts, Allie!!

HUGS to you, Johanna!

[Karen]

Awww, good job, Miss Alabama! Keep it up and you'll feel better even quicker.

[Laura's Babies]

It has been heart wrenching reading this but it is sounding better and better. Poor Allie for having to go through all this and poor Mom for having to go through it too! You must be emotionally exhausted.

[lizbud]

Sounds encouraging. I hope tonight's feeding goes well too. It's good
to hear the Allie's acting more alert.

[Grace]

Progress is made in small steps - not moon shots. This sounds very promising

[Catty1]

Keep inching forward, Allie...atta girl!

[Nomilynn]

I have only just seen this thread now. I will keep your girl in my prayers!

I lurk at least a couple times and day but don't often get the chance to post. Johanna, I'm sending out big prayers to you and Allie.

Come on - eat Allie eat - eat Allie eat.... **chanting**

Still keeping Allie in my thoughts and prayers. I hope to hear a great update about her soon.

Today is one week from the date of surgery, and Allie still won't eat or drink on her own. She had more fluids administered today, and the holes in her skin from the other times of fluids and injections haven't healed. This allowed fluids to run back out of her. She will have a second B12 shot on Friday, and I still give her the transfer factor every day.

I have a date on Monday, July 19th to have Allie re-checked and the staples removed. I have made the decision that if Allie isn't eating and drinking on her own by that time, I will help her to the Bridge. It just isn't fair to her. My will for Allie to live must be equal to Allie's will to live. I pray this isn't the case, but for Allie's sake, it is the way it must be.

This is such sad news, Johanna. We'll pump up the volume for Allie to eat and drink on her own. Keep the faythe.

I'm so sorry - I was hoping you would have better news about Allie. No matter what the outcome, just know in your heart, that you did all you could for her.

All to often, pet parents hold on and on, and it's for their own "selfish" reasons. Selfish in the sense that we love them so much, that we just can't bear to let them go, even when we know it's time. I've been down that road, and I have promised myself and furkids, that it would never happen again.

Hopefully, by some miracle, Allie will turn it around. Our thoughts and prayers are still going out to Allie, you, and Jonah.
