 Bleu Boy Update!
Bleu Boy and Vicki are on their way home. They should be home between 7:15 and 7:30. Bleu Boy did great when they brought him out to go home. He was still sleepy and calm from the sedatives so that will be good for the ride home. When his throat was examined, they said his tonsils were still very swollent. The left one is actually more swollen than the right one now. He will stay on his medications to continue to try and get the swelling down and heal his throat. He sounds hoarse when he barks so I'm sure his whole throat is pretty raw and irritated right now.
He did have an episode this morning that started out pretty bad but he was able to calm himself down and did fine after that. We took a video of the whole thing, and Vicki has that. We also took a lot of pictures and Vicki has those two. I have two on my camera that I took right before Bleu Boy left to go home and I'll post those here. So good news is that he's doing better and is going home. But bad news is that we still don't have any definite answers just yet and he's not completely out of the woods. Prayers are definitely needed for Bleu Boy to continue to heal and for him to be able to stay calm at home and not have any major breathing episodes. It is risky taking him home because it is possible he could stop breathing completely, but hopefully it won't get that bad. The main thing is keeping him as calm as possible.
A&M is supposed to be calling to check on him every day this week to see how he's doing. And depending on how it goes, I guess we'll see what needs to be done after this. If tonsils don't go down, they may have to be removed. And there is still the possibility that it could be more than the tonsils. So one day at a time right now I guess...we'll just pray that his tonsils will heal and that he will stop having his breathing episodes and all will get better.
Vicki and Bleu Boy were so happy to see each other. He's such a sweet boy and gave us all kisses! Here are the two pictures I took on my camera right before Bleu Boy ad Vicki left to go home
