    Bassett needs prayers again :(

    Last night I noticed that she wasn't breathing very well.. very laboured and fast. Then this morning, there was a little bit of open mouth breathing. I took her to the vet first thing this morning.

    Last time she went to the vet, she had some of that bloody syrus type fluid in there, and they weren't able to get it all out. I'm praying that whatever is there now, is more of that stuff and not chyle. Either way, nothing is supposed to be there but chyle means we're REALLY hooped; the other stuff means we might be able to fix it. They are also taking a blood test because they said her gums look pale, so she might be anemic (which would make sense if she was leaking bloody fluid) and she was also anemic right after surgery.

    Please say some prayers for my baby. It worked before - I just can't see God not listening a second time. I really need her in my life.. I'm not ready to let go and I'm terrified right now. It doesn't help that I got almost no sleep last night, either

    I have to go to work (but oh how I don't want to) so I won't have internet all day, but I can see if Nate can give periodic updates as I get calls from my vet. I also don't know if I'll have internet over the weekend, but maybe I can find a cafe or something.

    I'll keep you posted. Please pray for her. She needs it

    I'm so sorry Naomi! Here I was thinking that no news is good news and Bassett was continuing to do well. Prayers on the way. I know they will work a second time.

    Nate: I'll be looking for updates all day.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    ....

    As Naomi said, I'll keep you posted. She'll be phoning me and I will update you all as we progress though this rough time. As Naomi said, prayers would be more than welcome during this time. My hope is that it is just some of this Syrus fluid that was there before. I'll keep you posted as the telephone calls come.

    Nate and Naomi,

    I'm so sorry about Bassett. I will be saying prayers for her tonight. I hope it's something that is fixable after all you (and she) have been through.

    Tell Naomi I'm thinking about her and if wants to call me, I'll be home all weekend. She has my number.

    God, PLEASE!!! get Bassett through this and make her well.

    Love and (((((((hugs))))))))
