Chester is home but we are going to UC Davis this Thursday
Submitted by Bernata and Ang... on April 20, 2010 - 11:38pmhis condition is worsening, no seizures today, he is carefully watched with a syringe full of valium nearby if attack happens. His white cell count is increasing and red blood cell count steady at low level so we need to see specialist to see what is going on. We expect he may get MRI if they suspect brain tumor, he will get full battery of tests, ultrasound and X-rays, whatever necessary...this is a great place and I hope we get some answers. I hate the idea of him having to stay overnight if he has to get MRI, he is such a baby now and misses his mom, but I cannot do anything about it. I will try to see if they let me take him overnight to a hotel and bring him back in the morning if he has to get MRI. I also worry about anesthesia in his current state (severe anemia and seizures, you name it). I think my vet is shipping me off to Davis not only to get him figured out but also to get me off their hands as I am so neurotic about my babies, LOL. Despite me putting many of their offspring through Harvard this year, I am not an easy client; I obsess about everything and require explanation and extra care for my babies. I feel they want to sedate me together with my dog every time I show up. But I am beyond shame when it comes to the well being of my babies. THEY matter, not what others think about my OCD.
If you can, please send my babies some good thoughts and prayers, they both desperately need them.
Hugs to all your beautiful bullies and other four legged babies.
be as ocd as possible.....
listen be a pain in the butt as much as possible...i was a vet tech for a very long time...and you know what the people that were a pain in the butt got more out of their visit...understood more of what was going on...than the people who just nodded and walked away not understanding....i was the er tech...and i always got a phone call an hr latter from people saying what i didnt know that....
so be as ocd as possible...
my vet puts me last appt of the nite now...and gives me two appointments....becasue i dont go with the flow...i want what i am paying for....above average vet care for my pet....
and dont let the university push you either....stand up for your rights....their open 24hr so if you want chester with you...tell them...they will explain fully any reason he should stay...some times they like to adminster meds at a certain time...especially since he is aving seizures...
good luck,,,,and no alot of prayers are going your way....

Sending big time prayers!
Bernata, we are all heartsick for you and your babies. You are
taking him to a wonderful center, so I hope you will remain hopeful. We are so far from anything like UC Davis. I will continue to think of you and your babies. I hope you feel the hugs from everyone here on the board. You certainly need lots of them right now.

Bernata, many heartfelt prayers for you, Chester, Lily...
and your husband. I can't imagine all you must be feeling, but am here to lean on should you ever need. Hugs to you and your babies.
Amy and Sophia
Praying they get you some answers and some relief for
poor Chester. I know what you mean about being neurotic. I leave a page long list of instructions when Hooch goes to vet! But it's our job to be their advocate...if the vets don't like it, tough!
I'm so sorry to hear this...
will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers!
much bully love~Christine, Dupree, Marley and Savannah
