Please Prayers and Healing Thoughts for Patcheeno!
He's at the Emergency Vet. He very suddenly became ill last night. I had to leave him there after being at the vet a few hrs. It is horrible to be away from my little man and not be there to show him I care.
Patcheeno had all types of tests, x-rays, and ultrasounds last night prior to the surgical procedure.
He had emergency surgery which was finished somewhere around 4am, and then had to have a blood transfusion which we thought might be necessary since his red blood cells went very low before the surgery which was why we couldn't wait for the specialist. Right now he is stable and his temp has come back up (it had been very low). They are monitoring him closely.
The vet and staff are wonderful. One of the desk girls owns a Rescued AmStaff. They love him and all they could do was talk about how good and adorable he is.. So that at least made me feel better. I have never been to this place.
I will be able to go and see him later on, I have to wait for him to recover more and for their visiting hrs.
I will keep you updated on his status.
For those who don't know him, I've had him since he was 5 weeks old and he is going to be 10 on May 18th. He is my baby.
I'm a huge mess right now. I'll try and post more tomorrow.
Thanks for taking the time to think of him.
