BraveHeart (disappointing UPDATE 3-17-08, page 7)

While I agree, he might be giving up, I am not 100% ready to. At this point, I believe his anemia is dragging him down. If this medicine does not work fast enough, I am going to ask about a blood transfusion.

I am not a believer of "saving a life at ALL costs", but I think he needs more time. So I continue the syringe feeding and I'll talk to the vet tomorrow morning (the emergency vet, today, IF necessary).

With all the experience that you've had w/cats and rescue, if ever there was a person that I would tell to trust her instincts, it's you, Jen. You're being guided to know what to do and, should the time come that you have to help Braveheart to the Bridge, you'll know. In the meantime, keep the faith. We all know how many miracles we've experienced here on PT and elsewhere. We're praying for Braveheart and you. He doesn't have that name for nothin', y'know.

I am sad to read that Brave Heart is not responding to his new medication. If you go with the blood transfusion, I REALLY hopes that helps!!! Prayers and a little cheque heading out to One by One...Sandra

Awe Jen! This breaks my heart! I have such high hopes for that boy. I saw this yesterday and I was so upset I couldn't respond and I have LES now. I am just SO drawn to him, he has stolen my heart for some reason. I love him, care for him in such a way that it baffels me but that is just how it is. I would try that blood transfusion and I hope it makes him bounce right back. His energy is gone and he probably has none left to fight with, a transfusion could give him that energy back and give him a chance.. PLEASE keep us posted as I know you will without asking anyway. I really, really care about this boy so much! Praying really hard for that beautiful sweet soul!

Oh Jen, I am so sorry that precious Braveheart isn't doing too well.

Big time prayers on the way that he starts to eat on his own in hopes that the medication kicks in.

Come on sweetheart, you can do it, please don't give up.
