    Thanks for the update Aggie.

    Please whisper to her, that people the other side of the world are sending her lots of love and good wishes.

    Am thinking of you too.

    that's so crap you all have to go through this (including Maggie, of course!)

    So many of us here have gone through similar things and obviously have so much empathy for you.

    I know no words made me feel better when my puppy died. It hurts like hell, and will for a very long time afterwards, but know that if/when Maggie needs to go and you've had time to grieve, your heart will open for another Maggie who needs you!

    I wonder if you could do fluid injections at home? Sometimes that's a possibility (and not something animals mind too much). Just a thought.

    Just wanted to say you're in my thoughts. I grew up with schnauzers (and actually had one named Maggie, in fact) - they're great little dogs!

    Coming from a veterinary perspective - I work part-time as a vet tech while in grad school, and we have A LOT of clients who give subcutaneous fluids to their pets at home. It really isn't hard to do, or a big deal, but it helps the animals a lot.

    Hooray!

    Well as you all said our little guys and gals can be their own miracle workers. The vet called this morning and said her numbers improved "significantly" and she needs to go home then come back next week to pull a blood panel again. They are still guarded on her condition and how long she could go before relapsing but think she may have bought herself more time. I am headed to go get my little bear!
