Lisa, I'm so glad that Vetpet forum was able to get you the number for a specialist so fast! The beauty of the internet!

I agree that waiting is absurd, and I'm so happy to know Halo is being checked out Friday.

I know you'll keep us posted.

Keeping faws and pingers crossed.

Let's hear some good news!

Blessings,
M

not our dear halo!

great! I was going to advise you getting a second opinion from cardiologist. but you got it, (a specialist to be seen) and it's this friday! hooray! (what specialist, may I ask?)

reading your posts a couple of times again, I'm not sure if I understand how have you found her misery? was not able to "spring" her legs the only problem she has right now? the reason?

sorry your princess halo is heartbreaking you, but glad things got to be planned in advance already! good luck, you both! have us posted still please.

sweet halo, please keep playing and steal more corks until this friday! you've only got two and half more days left. you did good and keep your muzzle up!

Gina ~ Halo will be seeing Dr. Nelson Priddy who was recommended as a specialist in liver tumors as well as heart problems. Although Halo doesn't appear to have any heart problems, the enzyme that is sky high in her blood CAN be the result of a heart attack. Halo hasn't had a heart attack as far as anyone can tell. But does indicate muscles problems and since the heart is a muscle....

Halo's always been very careful when she runs and jumps. She was always having to "muscle it out" when she jumped up somewhere high. She'd jump as far as she could, catch the top with her front paws and pull herself the rest of the way up. We were originally told that this could be the result of her having kittens when she was so small. She walks with her back legs spread apart and kind of waddles. She also hops like a bunny with her back legs. We always thought these quirks were cute, but they may indicate muscle problems.

Halo's tumor was found during a routine exam. To investigate further, her vet ordered the blood tests. When the very high numbers came in he ordered the x-rays. That's when the tumor was found and the "thickening" of the lower intestines.

I'm away for work but checked in with Bobcat this morning. Halo is doing fine. Not feeling sick at all. She played all night with her wine/champagne corks, raced him down the stairs this morning hoping to go outside when he got the newspaper and is currently playing with her ribbons.

Halo has been obsessed with her ribbons since we first brought them home. All they are is shoe strings tied to a loop on a wire. She runs with them in her mouth, she plays with them all the times and she'll drag them to you when she's bored. Most times you can find her sleeping on them just in case they decide to wiggle on their own. I can't count the number of shoe strings and wires we've worn out over the last 3.5 years. She just never gets tired of them.

Tomorrow is her appointment with the new vet. I'll post whenever I know something. We did get all the records over to the new guy so he shouldn't have to sedate Halo to take more x-rays. And I wrote him a letter introducing Halo and letting him know that she won't bite or scratch him but she will pee when she's frightened. Figured I'd better warn him so he wouldn't be unpleasantly surprised.

Keep those thoughts and prayers coming. This sweet girl needs a miracle.
Thanks, Lisa (and Bobcat)

Good to hear that Halo is happy- the most important thing.

Keeping fingers crossed for tomorrow.

**QueenScoopalot** · 08-25-2005, 02:02 PM

Fingers & paws (and that's a LOT) crossed for Halo's appointment bringing you good news.

Is he doing an ultrasound to determine what's going on from another angle?

I'm very happy she doesn't have to wait another week to be seen.

**Killearn Kitties** · 08-25-2005, 02:17 PM

I'll be praying for a miracle for sweet Halo tomorrow!

**jenluckenbach** · 08-25-2005, 02:26 PM

I am glad Halo is playing. I will be waiting for any news.

**sandragonfly** · 08-25-2005, 03:34 PM

I'm soo glad things are still well! I'll be thinking of you (especially halo) tomorrow!!

A special candle will be lit tonight for Halo and you all. I'm glad she's holding her own. Here's for a good report....
