C'mon, Killi, you can do it! Mom will make you all your favorite people foods! Please, please Killi for all our sakes, PLEASE get better soon! We've all been so sad lately and you bein sick, just makes all your pals even sadder! You don't want that do you? :( We love you, you and mom are a part of our family! Cody and I are sending you kisses, hugs, puppy rubs and prayers for you to feel better soon and fast!
I have to agree with Jackie. You and Killian are so brave and fighting so valently. Killian is lucky to have such a dear Mom like you. Please know that you all are in our thoughts and prayers. We are lighting our candles tonight for all our ailing fur friends.
Kylie here, I have to post on the dog board since my sister Shai became an angel last week. I am taking care of momma, licking her tears away and snuggling with her. I know she misses the big goof something fierce.
Mom has been worried about Killi since Shai crossed to the bridge. For some reason he was on her mind. Killi boy, I know you don't know me but my big sis had a crush on you and I know she is worried about you now too. You gotz ta eat!! You are causing your mom way tooooo much stress!! I hope ya start to feel better
Thank you, Kylie, and Everybody,
I sure am sorry about Shai. Me and Shiloh will miss her, too. She's your Mom's Little Angel now. It sure does hurt when you lose one of "the Family."
I'm just not hungry too much anymore. Sometimes I eat a little just so I have some energy. Mom is taking me to see the Lady Doc this week for some more testing (I'm gettin' tired of all this). She's in Wednesday-Saturday. Mom says I'm gonna hafta go see a specialist. Do I have to go meet another Doc? Oh well, maybe I'll go eat a piece of chicken that Mom made me. Thanks for carin' everybody. Mom will let you know what the Lady White Coat says. Goodnite for now!
Killi
Killian,
I hope the lady doctor will be able to give your mom some answers and that you will feel better real soon. You just have to eat, Killi,so you'll have the strength to heal.
Sue, I think of you constantly. This is horrible for you to watch, and you must feel so helpless. :(
We will continue to pray for a miracle for Killian.

Killian update:
We visited the vet today. We spent an hour with her. We seem to think that this recent "episode" may be mouth related and not liver related directly. Killian's liver can't remove the poisons from his bloodstream so it seems that the bacteria in his mouth (caused by the gingivitis) just seems to multiply causing havoc in his mouth. (A vicious cycle)! :( He is having another tooth removed tomorrow!! (Like I said before, how scary is a large toothless GSD?) The vet went through her drug book and checked to see what antibiotic is processed through his kidneys instead of his liver and also what anesthetics can be used on him that will not cause his liver any more damage. Luckily she found two which will be used tomorrow. Amoxicillin (Clavamox) is the antibiotic he is on. The liver enzyme test could not be done because the results would be high anyway because of his abcess. The ammonia test is no longer done by a blood test so she will have to research how to do one some other way. I also have a new diet for him that I will have to cook for him everyday. We will fight this til the end. Wish Killi luck on the tooth removal and that he does not react to the meds again. Thank you, Everyone, very much.
Sue and Killi

Sue,
I am wishing Killian every success tomorrow

& only GOOD results !!!!
Will wait to hear how everything goes.
Killian has TONS of fur-buddies wishing him
All The Best !!!!!
Hey Killian, it could be worse, sweetie! I am glad you got no really bad news. Keep that furry chin up and get well soon! Good luck tomorrow.
Thank you Everyone! I'm hoping removing that tooth will cure his loss of appetite this time!!
Sue and Killi, your story is a great example of how we can help our fur babies by never giving up. Asking lots of questions, getting another opinion, pushing the doctors to think - that is the right stuff!
I'm so proud of you both, and I hope that the new plans will be a big help. A doggie without a bite does seem strange, but we'll care about sweetie Killian no matter what.
Best wishes from me and my kitty Murf, who has tooth trouble too! He wants to know when I am going to start cooking special food for him.... :eek:
Oh Killi Man...Having a toofie pulled is icky!! But if it helps my hero, one a my bestest pals, feel better and helps ya to wolf down yer dinner, I'm gonna be real glad fer you and my aunt Sue. I know you'll be real brave. But let us know asap how yer doin. Love, your pals, Star and Cody
Killian, this is Graham. best of luck on your toofie removal. i hope you get better and are reel hungry when you get home and you eat all of that yummy stuff your mamma cooks for you. i am thinking about you, buddy, and i sure do hope everything will go good.
your friend,
Graham
Dear Killi, I hope it went OK at the vet today and that having your tooth pulled will help you eat. Please let us all know how you're doing since we are all thinking of you. Lots and lots of kisses. Love Gio
PS Maya and Prema told me to tell you that they would send you somthing yummy from over here if that would make you eat (Maya has plenty of ideas but she is so greedy and so it does not surprise me one bit)
So sorry Sue & Killi for missing this thread yesterday..I hope all goes ok today! My Cody told me to tell you that you guys can do a toofless smile contest! Cody is missing 2 on the side, but his big ole tongue covers it and he's still so beautiful. I'm glad the vet took the time to do research beforehand! And I will be praying for you both all day that this helps eliminates Killi's suffering. Love to you from K9 and Cody! xoxo
