I may not be on PT as often as I would like, but believe me when I say that you and Killi are in my heart, prayers and thoughts every day. That poor, sweet boy going through so much. I wish I had the magic power to hug all his problems away. Bless you too, I feel your anxiety and pain. It's torture. Cody and I love you and Killi and Shiloh dearly and send you hugs and kisses.

Sue, Killi has the heart of a lion, he has been through so much, but like everyone has said, he is a fighter and so are you and I pray that you both get through this, he is a model of courage for all of us. Our prayers and positive thoughts are going to both of you.
Jackie, Perry and Miss Daisy

Thank you, Angels, for all your encouragement and kind words!! It really helps me to go on.

Well, it looks like Killian is not getting any worse. It seems that we've stopped it in it's tracks. His nasal passages are better (thank goodness) but his nose tip is still raw. I haven't found any new crusty patches either. So far, I don't see any liver distress. (whew) On Saturday, we go down to half dosage. Hopefully less will still work. So we are seeing some progress! Prayers do work!!!

Thank you, everyone!!

Killi sends wags and slurps (Shiloh, too!)

Not a day goes by that I'm not thinking of you and Killian, Sue. I may not always post it, but just thought I'd let you know. I'm so glad you are seeing some improvement!!! Lots of prayers and good wishes coming your way!!

I just breathed the BIGGEST sigh of relief!! I'm so glad to read the positive update, Sue. Little steps forward, little miracles, we'll take them all! Killian and Sue, you both never cease to amaze me with your courage, strength and determination. HUGE hugs to you dear Killian!! We love you!!

(Star is chomping on a big marrow bone as I type and she wants me to tell you Killian, that she'd like nothing better than to share it with YOU. And believe me, those selfless words don't come easy for my little Star***Shine!

Love, Aunt Sandra, Cody and Star!!

I'm so sorry I've missed this until now, but I'm very glad to hear he's not doing any worse. This sounds like good news. You will both be in my prayers & thoughts. Please take care, both of you & keep us up to date on his progress

{{{Hugs}}} to both of you!

As Shiloh says, refering to Killi's food grabbing tactics: Killi would do the classic "snatch and run" maneuver, then stop, put his paw on it and do his "Alien" impression, all teeth (well, what's left of them LOL) and gums and a low rumbling growl. Then he would proceed to sit with the bone under his paw and never even touch it. After he gets bored, Shiloh will pull the snatch and run and eat it in minutes flat!! Some people say that Killian looks downright scary when he does that!!!

Thank you for the offer, Star***. Killi would love to share a bone with you. You're not like his pesty, food grabbing sister, Shiloh. Killi said he'll bring some salmon to munch on, too!!!! LOL hahaha

so very glad to hear that he is not getting worse. Please keep us updated. Keeping Killi and you in our prayers here.

Sue, you mention salmon.......could it be you're remembering one of my first posts...The Case of the Captured Salmon?? Star pulled a 5lb. salmon fillet out of the bottom shelf of the fridge in a split second. I wrestled her to the floor and fought furiously. I tried, but....guess who won??

Ah yes, it was definitley a sign of things to come. 2 yrs. later, she hasn't changed. But I have bought a new frig. ONE WITH THE FREEZER DRAWER ON THE BOTTOM!

**Sudilar** · 03-24-2003, 05:48 PM

LOL Sandra, I can picture it now!!! Sandra and Star***Shine fighting over a salmon!!! hahahahaha

Whenever I go to the fridge or a kitchen cabinet, there are always two extra large heads in the way with me, but they never have done the "snatch and run" from right out of the fridge!!

Now, if something falls on the floor, it's fair game!!! Hahaha
