I don't know how much longer I can take!

Prayers and hugs coming your way. Would the vet let you go and just hold and cuddle him for awhile every day? That would probably make you both feel better.

Well friends, today is Franklin's fifth day at the vet. I called to check up on him earlier this morning. He did not vomit during the night, so the vet gave him a little bit of water. Well.. he drank it... and promptly threw it back up. (When I told the boyfriend this, he laughed and said "that's my boy!" ) She gave him some medicine to help with the nausea and said that they would try and give him some water again tonight. It will most likely be tomorrow before they try feeding him... if he doesn't throw up again.

I think at this point, I'm confident that he is stable enough to survive but we're still a little on edge. He just needs to start keeping down food and water. I'll be calling to check up on him later tonight and will keep you all updated as promised.

PS. I called to see if we would be able to come visit him as I think some cuddle time would do us both some good. Unfortunately, because Parvo is such a highly contagious disease, he is in an isolation ward and I am not able to go see him.

I am glad he is stablizing. That has to be so hard to be away from him. Praying he comes home soon.

I sure hope your little baby gets to come home soon. I dont know how I would do it. Im sure hes going to be coming home soon though. Maybe you could go out and get him a little present for when he gets home.

oh sweetie I know all too well your pain... I lost my maddy 2 yrs ago to this horrible disease and I tell you what if they would of let me sleep there on the floor I WOULD HAVE! I hope your baby gets better soon.....

[Wylie's Mom]

My heart sure goes out to you...I don't know how I would handle it either. Lots of hugs...

[Tiger's Mom]

OH I am so sorry to hear about your baby's condition . . . .I will pray he will be able to fight it and come home soon to full recovery.

[charly]

I really pray for a full and healthy recovery of your furbaby. Its hard knowing you can't physically be there for him. Your love and care is showing through your words. Praying for you and your furbaby.

I am so sorry. This is my first time every hearing about this. I know exactly what your going through. 8 months ago I had a chihuahua that had to be on IVs for 1week before we had to put her to sleep because she was getting worse (they thought she would only make it a couple more days and I wanted to end her misery). I only had her for 4 days before she started showing symptoms... I knew her for less than 2wks but I loved her.

SORRY, AGAIN! You are in my thoughts and prayers.

[janelles]

So sorry you are going through this. i know how nerve shattering it can be. I think I wore a hole in our rug pacing back and forth until I felt as though I could call and check on her once more, without being a pest.
When I finally got Tootsie home, I put a fleece blanket around her, and sat and rocked her all night. Pretty soon you'll be able to do the same with Franklin. Thinking about you, and hoping all will be well real soon.
