PT prayers still needed. Update post 137

[krazyaboutkatz]

Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent to you and Bob. Try to hang in there. Things will get better. Take care. (((HUGS)))

Oh My. I'm so sorry you have to struggle so much. My mom had COPD, so I can sympathize with your situation.

I know how difficult it is to rely on others. Been there. That's why I try never to turn anyone away, friends, relatives, who need a lift.

I hope Bobby's cone will stop him from licking his wound. Sure wish I could help you and Bobby. It'd OK if he pooped in my car.

Chris, and mine too.

I am so sorry you are disheartened. Bob sure does know how to work us up, doesn't he!!!?
Thinking of you ....

You know, here in Australia, they have Pet Cabs - so if you don't have a car, and need to get somewhere with your dog, you can book them. Anything like that there?

Oh Chris, I'm so sorry about this turn. To me, it looks like it needed a few more stitches to begin with.

For now, he will simply have to wear the cone, and I know that's no fun. Can you get him a tranquiizer to calm him down a bit so he sleeps more? 5 mg. of Valium works for Fister. I have a few times given him that at New Years eve.

I know how it is to have to dpend on others driving for you, I have the same problem. However, I have got hold of a pram my neighbors left, that I can put Fister's box in and walk him over to the vet. Perhaps you could do something similar? Borrow one from your neighbors?

Hope Bob will heal and get better soon!

Here's a picture of it:

Many thanks to you all my friends for your good thoughts, prayers and ideas. Very much appreciated. {{hugs}}

Yes, there are pet taxi services available in the UK but unfortunately none in my area.

Randi, yes, I too think perhaps it needed more stitches in the first place. As for wearing the cone etc he seems to have resigned himself to it and is being pretty good, in fact he was very good indeed whilst I was bathing it. Bless him.
A pram, trouble is that even if I found one to borrow I don't think I could manage pushing it up the hills, it's hard enough just walking. Good idea though, might work for a lighter load such as Ebby.

By the way, about the picture, I love that you took Fister to visit John. {{hugs}}

That goes for me, too (((HUGS)))

I'm so sorry to hear about Bob and you, too. I hope that Bob gets better soon and things work out.

[wolf_Q]

I'm still keeping you and Bob in my thoughts. That has to be really hard not having easy transportation. That hole looks pretty painful too! I hope Bob will recover from all this soon and your life will be back to normal!

[ChrisH]

Thank you all, much appreciated.

Gosh Chris, I can imagine how disheartening it is to deal with all of this.

Many hugs to both you and Bob ((((HUGS))))

Thanks, Anna.
