    Update-

    Andy went to the vets today, and the vet said that his ear needs to be removed. It was not a hematoma ( I figured it wasnt),, but the skin was scorched, and it caused the circulation to stop, leading to dead tissue/infection. So he will be at the vets again on Tuesday at 7am.

    Also, his temp was up, so we put him on metacam, to help ease the pain, and get the temp normal again. I believe it was 103.



    PS- My grandmother is in the ICU, the ambulance had to get her this morning, and she had a stroke along with Pneumonia(thanks Richard, I was thinking cat Pee, dont know where my brain in lately)

    They said she needs to be on oxygen, and they dont think she will pull through, but I hope she does, she is the only grandma I have ever had.. This has been the worst week of my life. The only good is that Andy is ok...

    I have to go back to the hospital in about 15 minutes, but I will update about Andy again tonight If I can.

    Thank you all so much again. I could not have gotten through this without you all.

    Poor ANDY.

    Thinking of you and your G-ma. Pneumonia (I took medical terminology and still have to look it up) and strokes are more treatable now, than they were before.

    Sending you out good vibes.

    I am not going to climb into the dryer at the local laundromat. With my luck the ugliest fireMEN will come to get me out!

    Oh Katie, I am in tears for you again. I am so sorry about your grandma.

    I am glad Andy was okay, but sorry he must lose the ear. He will be much better after that, I'm sure.

    Thinking of you. HUGS!!!
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
