I had to come and check this thread first thing today. I have only been awake for 5 minutes but you were the first person I thought of this morning. Your posts make me cry because it is so evident how much you love your boy and how worried you are. I wish we could all be with you to help you get through this, but thank God for the computer. I know that lots of PTers are praying (plenty from my end too) and I feel that Andy will pull through. I know exactly how you feel when you say that you don't deserve him. That would be something that I would say and of course it is not true. At times like this we tend to be extremely hard on ourselves and the "what ifs" could drive you crazy. More ((((hugs))))

P.S. Before you install that door..... I think it might just be easier to do a "sweep" of the inside of the dryer before you turn it on. I don't know about your cats, but mine (especially Trevor) have scooted through a door without my knowledge. I can't tell you how many times Trevor got himself locked in a closet because of how sneakily he scooted through a door when I wasn't looking. The door could give you a false sense of confidence. Just a thought...
