I am not up to talking about it. This scenario other than losing my father in 1992 is the worst thing I have ever witnessed in my life. As I handed Bleu to the doctors I was asking IS HE IS HE I thought he was GONE!

I cant do this but with God all things are possible and I am nothing without him and his grace is sufficient. He will make a way where there seems to be no way. Someone Somewhere will learn from this experience. I will be able to be a witness and advocate for 2-3 pound yorkies their health and AAI /AAS

God I ask you to touch my Bleu Boy heal him as only you can . Wrap your arms around him and protect him. He is in the very palm of your hand. Guide the physicians surgeons and anyone that comes in contact with Bleu. Lord let my light shine as I go through one of the darkest times of my life. You made Bleu God and you can touch him in a instant and I have faith 100% faith you will do it again. I know you did not give me Bleu to take him from me. He is too young and has not got to live a full life yet. Curse the very root of any disease and inflamation swelling hacking coughing not breathing right now in the name of JESUS! I pray for him to have sweet rest drink and eat well as he is already doing and for every medicine to be blessed. The medicines that are going into his little body God I ask you to make sure and go before the doctor before the meds hit his mouth and coordinate it with his body so he can reap the benefits. Protect my boy Lord Keep him rested so he can heal in your time. He is in your hands.. I want to praise you in advance right now because our miracle is on the way and I accept it. I claim his healing and I claim long healthy years for BLEU BOY! I pray for this site father and all the users and their furbabies. Pour out multiple blessings for them and richly bless them in every area of their life. If anyone not be saved and know you as their personal saviour I ask you Lord to open that door as well. In Jesus name I pray AMEN!

He was diagnosed with Tonsilitis yesterday and started on antibiotics and he was supposed to go home today. Dr. Butler and a 4th year vet student took Vicki back to a room and went to go get him, and when they started to get him out he had one of his episodes where he couldn't breathe. It was the worst that they had seen so far. So they came and talked to Vicki about what happened and to talk about options and where to go from here. She said she felt confident in bringing him home and that she would keep him in his kennel and calm until the swelling in his tonsils went down. So they went to get him and brought him back up and handed him to her and he had a terrible episode...the worst that Vicki or the doctors had seen. And I witnesses it this time as well. He had his mouth wide open and was trying to breathe in and couldn't. He tried several times to breathe in and the air just wasn't going in. They checked his gums and they were blue so they took him back to put him on oxygen. They got him calmed down and to where he could breathe again.

Many vets, surgeons, and specialists have looked at him and they just aren't sure what is going on right now. They feel like there might be more going on than just the tonsilitis. They think he could have nerve damage from his neck surgery or scar tissue that is interfering with him breathing correctly. So far as the tonsilitis - it still could be what is causing this or it may not. He may have the nerve damage or scar tissue that is the main issue and the tonsilitis is making it worse, or the tonsilitis could just be a coincidence. They just don't have any definite answers right now.

So the plan for right now is for him to stay at A&M for a few more days where they will keep him calm and on his medicines. They'll be giving him antibiotics and steroids to try to get the swelling and inflammation down in his tonsils. If the swelling doesnt go down they may look into removing them. Hopefully once the tonsils are better, he'll be better as well. If he's still having issues once the swelling goes down, it's most likely some kind of problem with his larynx...he might have nerve damage as a result of his AAI surgery, and he has scar tissue from the surgery that could be giving him problems as well. So really we just don't know right now. They've got a lot of educated guesses and ideas to what it could be, but they just can't give any definitive answers right now.

Vicki has been so upset and worried, and seeing Bleu Boy's episode tonight was really aweful for her. She's so worried she may lose him, but I know we're not at that point right now. They're taking good care of him at A&M and are able to keep him calm. and he's supervised 24/7 and care is right there if needed. Oh, and they said he's eating and drinking well on his own. There are still many things to watch and look into. I think if he continues to have trouble breathing, last resort and worst-case scenerio so far as treatment would be a tracheotomy, where they would cut a window in his trachea so that he'll breathe through his throat instead of his mouth...that would bypass the areas causing him trouble breathing. But hopefully it won't come to that. We're staying positive and hopefully it is the tonsilitis and once swelling goes down, he'll be able to breathe better. They will give it a few days for swelling to go down and probably do a laryngeal exam again.

If everyone could just please pray for Vicki, her family, and Bleu Boy. Pray that the tonsils will heal and that he will be able to breathe better and that it is nothing more serious. Pray that he'll be able to go home soon and live a normal life. And pray for Vicki as she is so worried and upset over all of this. I can't imagine how hard it is to be 2 hours away from her baby. I know everyone's prayers and thoughts mean so much to her. She may or may not be online...she appreciates you all so much but said she just doesn't know if she feels up to talking or posting right now. I just wanted to give you an update on Bleu Boy's situation.

Here are pictures that Vicki took of Bleu Boy in his oxygen cage before she left.

Thank you so much for the update. I was thinking late yesterday afternoon that Vicki had her little boy back in her arms at home. This is so upsetting. It sounds as if they are looking at every possible cause right now. Keeping a very close eye on him. Knowing someone is right there with him 24/7 has to be some comfort. I feel Vicki has him in the best place possible with very skilled Doctor's. We will continue to keep Vicki, Bleu Boy, and the Doctor's in our thoughts and prayers.

[Ichabob]

prayers coming your way for bleu and your family.

[BLEU BOY BARBER]

A&M just called and stated Bleu had a good night in ICU said he did not have any episodes and they will be monitoring him all day. He said that he will be given his meds like clock work. They are letting him outside to go potty and he has not had any accidents at all .. They are amazed at him being so well behaved and potty trained and all I say to that is

THATS MAMAS BLEU BOY!!!

[RoxyJosMom]

Aww, bless Bleu's little heart - he is trying so very hard to beat this. Many prayers are on their way, Vicki, to you and your little man. I would be a basket case by now. What a horrible roller coaster ride you've been on. It sounds like it's the excitement that brings on the episodes. Can dogs get Asthma? I'm glad he had a good nite. I'll keep praying for you both. God Bless.

[nmbgirl]

Vickie, I'm am so sorry Bleu is having so many health issues. I was so touched by your prayer, I will keep Bleu, you and your family in my prayers. Stay strong
lots of kisses to Bleu Boy...Lena

[Betty'sMom]

I am so sad for that sweet baby. He has been through so much. Please God, heal him. Let him enjoy his life and his wonderful family.
