I'm so sorry you're going through this & pray your baby will pull through okay... I'm in So. Maryland and glad to have you and your baby with us where you'll get plenty of support. |
Thanks for all the get well wishes again! I called the vet to check on him. I guess his red blood cells had dropped to 16,000 as of noon, and so they started him on a blood transfusion. The good thing about them being so small is that one pint of blood can give them several transfusions if needed. I guess also his coagulation time was prolonged (meaning the blood is having trouble clotting) and that has continued to get worse as well. They gave him a medicine that is supposed to help bind up the zinc in his system so he can try to get rid of it easier. I guess it takes 24-48 hours for that to start working. So, things are not going very well. But, the vet said the good news is that he's still very alert and he's not showing signs of internal bleeding yet. I'm supposed to call back between 4pm and 5pm to find out how he is. I will update again then. |
Saying prayers that he gets well! |
This is so scary. Who would of thought swallowing a penny could be so dangerous. We are all praying for your little boy. |
omg I just saw this!!! I hope your baby is Better!!! Im saying a prayer for you and your baby!!! Gracie and I are sending lots of hugs love and yorkie kisses!!! GET BETTER SOON LITTLE BOY!!! |
So sorry for you and your furbaby! I wish there was something I could do, but will def. will be praying for your puppy. They are so much like little babies. Anything that isn't nailed down will go into their mouths. Our little girl who is now a year and a half tried to swallow a piece of plastic Sat. and got it stuck in her throat. I could feel it, but couldn't retrieve it and while I was trying to look, she was thrashing around. Finally, we had to take her to the ER vet because I didn't want to stick tweezers down her throat and couldn't see anyway. The minute she out of her carrier, and the tech opened her mouth it popped out, thank heavens! I have no idea where she found it. We are so careful about keeping things picked up off the floor, but they find stuff you'd never see. Will be checking for updates, I hope everything goes well. |
oh my goodness, how awful for something like this to happen..poor baby ... sending hugs to you and many prayers too, and welcome to YT... |
Oh my, I am so sorry the update is a bit concerning. Prayers from our house to yours. This hits so close to home for all of us because it could happen to any of us. I will check in again to see how you're all doing. And you hang in there too. I know how emotionally draining this is. So the prayers are for all of you! ~hugs~ |
