Prayer request for Killian again

[Sudilar]

Again, we need your special PT prayers for Killian. He is having an episode of Hepatic Encephalopathy. He won't eat, his eyes are glassy, he is unsteady on his feet, he is vomiting and can't hold down his meds. In the past your prayers have pulled him through some pretty scary stuff, so again I ask for help. I know that soon he will be called to RB, but I'm not ready yet and neither is Shiloh. She spent the night by his side, watching over him.
Thanks in advance for your help.

[Logan]

Oh, Sue, I have hesitated to ask about the precious boy, Killian, in hopes that everything has been going ok, and I assume it has been up until now. Thank you for letting us know that our Pet Talk prayers are needed in earnest for your sweet boy and for his best buddy, Shiloh, and of course, his mom. We'll have to step those prayers up a notch to help pull our favorite GSD boy through this mess.

Please know that you all are in my thoughts and prayers, and if you need ANYTHING, I'm a PM or an email away.

We love you, Killian, Sue and Shiloh. A LOT!!!!!! :)

Logan

[Sudilar]

Thank you, Logan. Just the other day I was looking at Killian and thinking...wow, he's 10.5 now and he is doing well....then this happens. Well, I do believe in the miracle of PT prayers, so I am asking. Thanks, Friends!!!

[robinh]

I was also wondering the other day how he was, but I was afraid to ask. He's been doing so well.

Heartfelt prayers for Killian, Shiloh and for you. Having a pup with on-going health problems is hard on all of you.

Prayers on the way for Killian and Shiloh and you!
(((HUGS)))

[Cincy'sMom]

Poor Killian..he is such a fighter!! We will pray that he agains pulls through.

[tatsxxx11]

I can hardly type for the tears:(:(:( Killian, you have to rally for your Mom, for sister Shiloh and for all of us. C'mon Killi Man...fight, fight, fight. We're all going to do our part, sending you all our love and praying for your recovery. Me and Cody and Star love you so much Killi. I can't bear to think of you not eating, unable to walk. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of you, Killi. Remember your cheer, sweet boy??? "Killi, Killi he's our man. He can do it, we know he can!!!" Try your best sweet boy. I know, you've battled so valiantly and so long. I'm hoping you can yet again, pull out another miracle. We love you so much. Sue, I'm keeping you, Killi and Shiloh in my heart and in my prayers. We need a mriacle here and that's what I'm hoping for. Please don't leave us Killi. We love you. Aunt Sandra, Star***Shiine and Cutie Cody.

[slick]

Prayers on the way for Killian. They have worked in the past and I just know that all these PT prayers will work another miracle.

[GoldenRetrieverLover_01]

I will keep him in mind and of course pray for him. I'm sorry this happened. Good luck and hope you get better! Keep us posted.:(

[KYS]

(((((Hugs Killian))))

Many good thoughts.

[Karen]

Prayers on the way for Killian.

[lizbud]

Sue,

This is disturbing news about Killian,:( I will pray with all my
might for a turn around for your sweet, brave boy. Maybe there
is something else the Vet could try to get him eating again. I
pray this happens. Please keep us updated.

[Corinna]

Its been a long while of fair health for our adorable Killi . We here at the Brubaker crew send our prayers along too.

[chocolatepuppy]

Prayers headed your way Killian.

[shais_mom]

I was just wondering how Killian was today. :(
Killian and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

[tatsxxx11]

I woke up so many times last night, thinking of Killian. How is he today? Hoping for a little good news. We love you Killi.

[Pam]

Sue I'm so sorry to read this. (((Hugs))) to you and Killian as well.

[Rachel]

I've lost track how many times Killian has persevered and came through another crisis for the Love of his mom and sister. I think there must be some kitties running around with less than nine lives because they've lent several to Killian. Killian, I know if there is any way you can pull through another time, you will.

In the meantime, I think the Prayer Pups have articulated what is in my heart (those are some smartee pups, aren't they?) I can't do any better than repeat their plea, so I shall do just that, with all my love and sincerity.

Hannah and Tucker said for their buddy, Killian, to get better real quick. They can't stand to think of him being so sick.

[LorraineO]

you can count on prayers from our house... please keep us posted.....

HUGS!!!

[pitc9]

Sierra, Buddy and I have all three of you in our prayers, in our thoughts and in our hearts.

[Sudilar]

I want to send everyone my heartfelt thanks for your prayers. I know they work because I have seen it here so many times!

Saturday update:
Things are looking up! Killi ate a tad bit of braunschweiger (in which I hid his prednisone.....which should reactivate his appetite very soon)! I upped his lactulose dosage too. His eyes look a little less glassy and he only stumbled once this morning. His urine is back to a lighter yellow (it was dark dark yellow the last few days....afraid it would be turning orange)!

Thank you so much for your prayers!!! I know they have pulled Killian through so very much. As the vet says.....Killian would have been gone a long time ago. I believe it is PT prayers that keep him here! Hugs to all!!!!!

I will update later to let you know if the pred kicks in and he eats a little more!

Thank you, thank you!!!!!

[LorraineO]

Fantastic news indeed!!!!

[ChrisH]

:) Sue, thanks for the heartening update.

Keeping those prayers going.

Hugs and love to all especially sweet Killi.
Chris

[tatsxxx11]

Oh, what a relief to hear you're doing a little better, sweetheart:) Killi, Sue, you two are amazing! I know you loved that braunschweiger, Killian:D The prayers and good thoiughts continue...:) Love, Sandra, Cody and Star:)

[lovemyshiba]

Glad to hear the good news this morning.
Of course you all will remain in my prayers, I want dear Killian to pull through and be healthy again for his mommy and dear sister Shiloh.

[Rachel]

Just checking in on Killian and was rewarded with the good news that things are looking up a bit. Each day with Killian is precious.

[anna_66]

Oh Sue, I am so glad to hear that Killian is doing better. I've been thinking about you all quite a bit lately.
There are so many things I'd like to say right now, but I can't for the tears.
Big hugs for all of you.

[lizbud]

I'm, so happy the news is better today.:D Hang in there big
guy Killian. Your momma & sister Shiloh need you to get better
and better(and so do we:) ) We'll be thinking of you sweetie
& keep you in our prayers.

[pitc9]

:D

Glad yur feelin a bit better, Killian!! :)

"Braunschweiger" soundz gud...
Have anudder byte! ;)

Hey God ~ *THANKS*!!
..

[K9karen]

Oh Sue, I always shutter when I see you start a topic in Dog Health.....
I'm glad a day has passed since I got around to catching up, since Killi boy is doing better! Words unspoken, I always pray for that marvellous, incredible boy! I hope that I can have that tenacity, strength, courage and will to live when the day comes. He is such an inspiration to pet and human alike. He is so special. Please please give him (and Shiloh) big hugs and kisses from their Aunt Karen and Cousin Logan!

[wolf_Q]

Glad to hear he's doing better! I will keep him in my thoughts!

[Sudilar]

Thank you all, again!!

Sunday update:
Killi ate a little yesterday and was actually moving around a bit more. His eyes are brighter (no longer that blank dark stare) and wants to go out in the yard for a little sniffing. The other day he would go out and stand in the middle of the yard and just stare into space, not moving. He was up at 4 this morning with diarrhea from the food he ate, but at least he held it down that long. This morning, he ate more food and so far, it is staying in him.
I just wanted to let you all know why I get so worried about these episodes (especially one of HE). With HE, the dog either pulls out of it or goes into complete coma and usually dies all within a short time. The episode last year was when he was very close to being in a complete coma, actually he was in stage IV of HE (out of IV stages), being almost comatose (he was able to respond very slightly at some times), so now you can see why I get so worried. I believe that your prayers do help him, so I will always ask for help.
Thank you again!!!!
{{{{HUGS}}}}
PS I think those Prayer Pups have a hotline straight to God!!!!

[GoldenRetrLuver]

I'm SOOOO glad he's feeling better, Sue! Sorry I missed this thread when you first started it.

{{hugs}} to you and Killian! :)

[slick]

So glad that Killian is feeling better. Those PT prayers really do make a difference. Hugs to you Sue and smoochie kisses to Killian.

[anna_66]

I'm glad to hear that Killian is still doing alright this morning. I couldn't be happier for you:)
I hope he continues to get better as the days go on.
Come on Killian boy, we're rooting for you big boy!

Many, many more hugs for you!

[Corinna]

Glad to hear hes better again. Thank you God for hearing our pleas. Killian sure has a strong will to keep living and beating these episodes.

[chocolatepuppy]

Glad Killian is feeling better, it is so nerve racking when one of your babies is sick! :)

[tatsxxx11]

Oh Sue. You don't have to explain to us why you're worried. We all know how very serious Killian's illness is and how brave and courageous he's been through all his episodes. I know he couldn't have gotten through them without you by his side and the strength and courage you've shown us, is beyond inspirational. I hope and pray that Killi is keeping his food down today. It was so good to hear that he's improving slowly but surely. My heart ached when I read your description of him staring off into space. That's what my Jing used to do periodically when she was battling liver cancer. We are all keeping you and Killian and sister Shiloh in our thoughts and prayers. Killi, Star***Shine and Cutie Cody send their bestest pal lots of slurpy licks and say, "Get better friend!" And give him a big hug and kiss from me too:) Love, Sandra

[Pam]

Sue thank you for updating us. I know the uneasiness you feel, even though he seems to be better. Killian was one of the first pups I "met" when I joined here. He has sure been a very special part of PT and we have all come to love and admire you and him as well for the fight he is putting up and the way you are helping him through all of this. I hope he will be around for quite some time to come. Continued prayers and (((hugs))) to you and your special boy.

[*LabLoverKEB*]

Oh, Sue, I hope that Killian, get's better. I knowmthis is very hard for you and Shiloh. Poor boy. I know you love him, and we do to. I wish I cold just make him better somehow. I will keep Killian in my thoughts and in my prayers. (((HUGS))))

[captain]

Hey Killi - hope you get better darlin boy.

Sue - {{{hugs}}} to you .... and the ever beautiful Shiloh

[delidog]

Oh Sue & Killian,
Of course you are in our Thoughts & Prayers.....

All Paws are Prayin' for You Killian,
Get Better Soon!!!

[Sudilar]

Pet Talk prayers have worked again!!!!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!

Monday update:
Killi was looking for food this morning!! He ate his full amount of food, his eyes look clear and there was a short tug of war over a stuffy this morning!!!!!! Back to normal!! Woohoo!

Hugs to you all and thanks for your prayers. Gotta go let him out now....

[Pam]

Killian you are better than the Energizer bunny. You don't run on batteries - you run on prayers! Sue I know how happy this rebound has made you because it has certainly had the same effect on us! :)

[Sudilar]

Pam, I am sure that PT prayers work. How else can he keep pulling through all these ailments??

He is looking good again! I can't thank you all enough!!

[Logan]

What a wonderful boy, Sue!!!! :) He's letting you know that he may get "down", but he's not ready to go anywhere!!!! :D

[tatsxxx11]

What a wonderful way to start the day!!! Sue, eveyone here is doing a BIG happy dance in Killi's honor! Oh, what great news! Keep up the good work, big guy! The prayers continue:) Love, Sandra, Cody and Star
