I'm sorry I'm just now seeing this. I do hope that Joey is going to be alright. It sounds like you have a wonderful vet who is willing to do whatever needs to be done.
Glad that Bob is letting you cuddle (if he wants to or not ) I'm sure it makes you feel somewhat better.
Please let us know when you hear something. Until then we'll be keeping you all in our thoughts and prayers.
