I've been frosted!!
Diana I'm so sorry you're having to go threw this. I will be praying for your boy.
I had to take Snoopy into the vets last night. The fluid is starting to build up again around his stomach. And he is eating less again which only makes sense with that big bulge of fluid pushing on his stomach. Since it doesn't seem to be affecting his breathing and because it would just build back up again quickly, Dr. James decided not to drain it. She and I talked some more about "when" and she said she thinks Snoopy is uncomfortable right now but not in pain and there was still a few things we could do to help his liver heal and give him more time - but she also said that anytime we decided financially, emotionally, physically we felt we couldn't handle it, they wouldn't say no to our letting him go. And obviously when we thought Snoopy had had enough.
Anyway she prescribed a new medicine which is basically a diuretic. They were holding off because he already drinks a lot of water and pees a lot. This will probably increase that but it could really give the liver more of a chance to heal. Keep those prayers acoming!

I'm keeping you and Snoopy in my thoughts. {{Hugs}}
My heart is breaking for you. I am so saddend to see you/your family and Snoopy go through this. I know your hearts must be torn apart right now. But I will pray that when it is time for you to let Snoopy go God will give you the strength to do the right thing. Just remember you will see him again some day and he will be healthy and happy waiting to shower your with love. Sending healing prayers to Snoopy and you. Please give that lovely spotted boy some giant hugs and kisses from me, ((hugs)) to you and your family too.

On occasion I have been know to speak Chopperese.
(((Hugs))) to you and Snoopy and the whole family. This is the worst part of loving an animal. I hope the diuretics will help some and that the vet continues to feel that he is not suffering any pain.
I am so sorry. I agree with Pam. It's the hardest part, seeing them sick and being helpless to do much. I hope Snoopy will not have pain with all the other things he has to deal with. Please give him huge amounts of love from us all. I hope our healing thoughts and prayers reach you.

I did the right thing by setting you free
But the pain is very deep.
If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
I miss you
I hear you whimper in your sleep
I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.
Fur as dark as the night.
Join me on this flight.
Paws of love that follow me.
In my heart you'll forever be.

How I wish I could hold you near.
Turn back time to make it so.
Hug you close and never let go.

Knowing when....such a gut-wrenching decision. One I am, unfortunately, very familiar with.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your handsome boy. My heart aches for you both.
Some of us have contributed to other FurKid Funds in the past ... I'd like to think that
a few of us will find it possible to chip in a buck or two towards Snoopy's Vet Bills.
No hard sell here; no threats that "he's gonnna die if you don't contribute" ...
just a heartfelt request that you Help with a donation IF YOU CAN.
It's pretty easy to get your donation to where it's needed ...
SORRY - but the Clinic is NOT staffed to where they can accept PayPal contributions ...
BUT they will gladly accept USA Checks, Money Orders, "Checks by Phone",
and Credit/Debit Cards over the phone.
(Non-USA CHECKS will be a problem - it's very costly for them to deposit Canadian or European checks. Please PM daughter Amy ( Cincy'sMom ) for non-USA donations - she
can accept foreign donations via PayPal.)
