I think Cassie is dying - Page 21 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

What a mix of ups and down emotions. I am so sorry about this recent diagnosis

Keep your chin up and continue to have faith. Please remember how lucky Cassie is to have you be her advocate and mommy. If it weren't for you she would already not be with us.

I'll continue praying for her. Again, I'm really sorry you have to go through this.

This is just terrible. Hoping that the Viagara works for this baby girl.

MauiGirl · 09-17-2013, 03:04 PM

So sorry for this unfortunate turn, but you can count on prayers to continue from all of us, and help from the holistic vet.

You and Cassie have been in my thoughts every day these last few weeks. Through all the highs & lows I care about what is going on in your lives. It's so sad to hear the latest news, but also I have hopes you may have another good year or two together.
Cassie has a lot of fans rooting for her health. I for one really appreciate your keeping us up to date on her progress. Thank you, & please give Cassie a hug from me.

I'm fairly new around here except for researching, but tonite I ran across your thread and read every post. I can't tell you how very much I feel for you and your baby Cassie. I would also like to add my prayers to the list & wish you both the very best for a happy ending. God bless you & yours.

bchgirl · 09-17-2013, 04:04 PM

I am so sorry. Keeping you both in my thoughts and prayers.

Well this wasn't exactly what I wanted to read when I logged on tonight, but I am an optimist and I believe Cassie will survive this. Viagra huh? Interesting concept, it does make sense. Put your faith in your holistic vet though, get her started as soon as you possibly can. Please believe me when I say how very much I care, I'll pray hard for her...we will see you through this, you are not and will never be alone. Wipe away those tears, be strong for her...we've come too far to give up now. I'm sure she knows how much you love her, she has to feel the power of that love, she's got the spirit...she will win. My thoughts and prayers will continue, you can bet on that.

I am with your Holistic Vet Chin up and YT prayers up! You just never know in life what is going to happen. A positive attitude can work wonders. Sending YT prayers and hugs.

Doodlebug · 09-17-2013, 06:10 PM

I am still praying for Cassie and for you. Hugs.

lillymae · 09-17-2013, 07:45 PM

I too am with your holistic vet & am Praying for you both.

MomtoJasper · 09-17-2013, 09:36 PM

Continuing to pray for Cassie. And don't give up now. Miracles happen every day. Praying hard for the Lord to give both strength and guidance.

YazminD · 09-18-2013, 04:52 AM

I'm so sorry to hear Cassie's recent diagnosis. Although it's hard, keep your chin up and continue to have faith in your Holistic Vet that she will shine! You're a wonderful Mommy to Cassie and she's depending on you to keep your strength and courage going strong.
Sending (((Hugs))) and keeping you both in my thoughts and prayers.

EarthAngel · 09-18-2013, 08:38 AM

Shellie, I am praying your Holistic Vet will do wonders for Cassie.

LanaHamilton · 09-18-2013, 08:46 AM

Oh damn, I didn't want to hear that for Cassie or you!!!!! I too believe your holistic vet will get Cassie thru this, like she said, this is where she shines. All our prayers will keep coming for you!!!! Keep strong, both of you! ~hugs~

broodizt · 09-18-2013, 11:16 AM

I did research on the internet and found a similar situation from two years ago-a five year old Yorkie Male diagnosed with severe right sided pulmonary hypertension, Normal is 20 and this Yorkie was 97, Cassie is 96. Cardiologist also says to treat with Viagra. This pup also has Cushing Disease. States cannot undo the damage to the heart, but can possibly contain the damage by starting the Viagra. The compounding pharmacy called today-the prescription is ready so I will go to pick up. Cassie very lethargic and poor eating. Not saying she wont' take a lick or two, but I have yet to see much of an appetite. She is supposed to eat at least two ounces of food a day, she only took a couple of clicks this morning of berbers baby food chicken, and a little canned salmon, maybe two licks, and a tiny bit of lf string cheese. Seems weak and lethargic. I go see Tamera (my holistic Vet) tomorrow. Trying to be brave!!! The homeopathic meds she gave me for stress and PTSD seems to be working. Will keep you posted.
