    Thank you everybody for the prayers...they mean a lot. Reading your kind words brought tears to my eyes...all I seem to do lately is cry when I think about how sick Scruff is.

    We woke up this morning to more diarrhea. Scruff looked so sad, as I am sure he is embarrassed by this. He is so insistent on going outside. Even when he ate 4ft of wire mesh a few year back and he had to throw up - he would stand by the door and whine, holding it in the whole time. Once he was outside, he would let it out. I know his accidents are upsetting him.

    pomtzu - I will definitely ask my vet on Monday to check for a GI bleed. They did do a fecal but don't think they checked for that. He did have a little blood in his stool a few weeks ago, and that is why the vets did the fecal. He has been on Flagyl and it did nothing for him.

    Daisy and Delilah said it best, my heart is breaking. It is so hard to watch him like this. When is it too much? When do I know what to do?

    I will update everybody on his progress as things change. I know I have a habit of disappearing, but this time my internet is here to stay for some time.

    Thank you for the prayers and kind words again.

    Just another thought..........

    I'm no doc, but that shot of Reglan that Myndi got, stopped the diarrhea dead in it's tracks.

    Hoping that something can help Scruff to feel better soon.

    I'm so sorry to hear about Scruff being so sick. I am praying for his healing as well as peace for the rest of your household. Stay encouraged and love on him. You know they are so sensitive to us and in spite of feeling bad he probably also feels your distress so try to be as calm as possible ( I know much easier to say than to do).

    Thank you again everybody.

    pomtzu - I will mention that to the vet on Monday - thank you for the advice.

    wanwan1007 - I am trying to stay calm, but it is so hard. Every time I look at him I tear up.....my poor boy is fading, and I just don't know how to make him better.
