Tragedy at the Layne household... VIDEO ADDED POST 177!

[Felicia's Mom]

Keeping Andy and you in my prayers.

[Freedom]

Katie, OMGosh, HUGS to you, and loads of prayers for health and a full recovery to sweet Andy!

"I am a bit over emotional just now" - hey, you have EVERY RIGHT to be just now. What a horror, but it sounds like you caught on to the situation and got Andy out and to the ER in time.

I too was sick just reading this. Poor sweet boy. How scary for both of you. He WILL recover and be home with his mommy soon.

Just an idea for some folks: I had to keep the water squirt bottle near the oven for a while when Tommy and Tuppence first arrived back in January. They were too curious for their own good; and for my sanity. Now they give the oven a wide berth as they pass it. I still have to keep watch, I know, but a bit of training may help too.

Katie,

I didn't post last night but I was praying hard for Andy. It wasn't your fault. Accidents do happen and since I live an apartment I've never had to experience checking dryers or washers.

But I know to keep that in mind for the day my husband and I get a house. I'm sure Andy knows how sorry you are and it sounds like he is getting better. I'm still going to continue to pray hard that everything goes well and that you will be able to bring him home.

Take care and Hugs to Andy,
Melissa

Ok. Quick update. I called for a update (yes, another one) and this is what was said. I asked to speak directly to the evet. He got on and I requested that he do another exam, I wanted updated vitals/temps and heart rate.

He told me that vitals are ok, not bad not great. Temp is down to 103 now. Heart rate still elevated, in the 200s, but not as bad as it was. That his ear is scorched, and is now starting to show signs of a hematoma(filling with blood). He is still not eating, but he is still taking his ivs, and pain meds every 30 or so minutes.

He expects him to pull through, but that since he went through heat stroke, that I might need xrays and full blood work (liver failure is a issue). I told him that whatever he thinks is best. I would rather be safe than sorry. I dont think I could handle any more sorry right now.

So that is the up to the minute news. Please still pray hard for my boy. I wanted to bring him home today, but am now doubting that. Still hoping I can though.

Thank you all so much, and I am so grateful for my PT friends. Also, hubby woke up this morning and was alot nicer to me about this whole horrible thing. He says he is praying for Andy (he is VERY religious) and that he does feel terrible for him, as he would any animal that went through that. He was just mad at me.

*HUGS* to all of my PT friends!

Hey,
I hope the little bugger is okay.

I too just read this and I cannot imagine what your heart is feeling.

Sending your house prayers and good thoughts.
