(((( Hugs and lotsa hope and good thoughts for Lucy ))))

Wish, I'll be thinking of you and Lucy today.

you and Lucy are in my thoughts and prayers today

I have great news. Lucy's scores have gone down alot! The vet is excited and as long as they continue going down she should be able to come home. I was so scared they hadn't changed, but they did. She looked great- the workers were telling me how different she looked today, like a whole different dog. We were able to walk her around outside and she was trying to climb out of her cage and onto my lap.

Her scores went from (3/30/07) BUN 161 and CRE 6.4 to (4/2/07) BUN 120 and CRE 5.2. Her phosphorus levels changed from (3/30) 15.8 to (4/2) 8.8! (which explains why she is looking so much better--- she is not feeling sick and nauseous anymore)

I can't believe how low they went. Thanks so much for thinking of her. I made a promise that if she was ok I would go to church on Sunday (lol) so I guess I will be going.
.


I was hoping to take her home today but her levels are still way too high and hopefully in a few days she can come home and will only need 1 shot per day until (if) they go back to normal. Normally they should be BUN 7-27, CRE .5-1.8, and PHOS 2.5-6.8. Her scores in October were in that range, I hope they can get back in it.

I will post pictures later in the week to show you everything she has gone through.

wish, i'm so happy for you and Lucy.... I"ll continue to say a prayer for her

oh Wish! this is such good news
.






ps
Do remember to get all your vet bills and hopefully also a covering letter from your vet re her treatment etc and get it filed with Menu Foods ASAP as they have stated they are reimbursing vet fees for animals who have been dx with kidney probs after eating any of the recalled foods. Also file with the company whose brand is on the food!

Sitting here in my office with tears trickling down my face. ((((Wish)))) I can't begin to tell you how this touches my heart. Positive thoughts and prayers will still continue for Lucy to keep getting better.

I haven't heard such good news in a really long time!

And yes, please remember about the vet bills and don't forget that the last pet site I posted has links to where you report your pets affected by this attrocious disaster.

((((((Lucy))))))

Oh my, goodness!! ((((((Wish))))))!!

I told you that we all can create miracles together here
.


I'm still praying that your sweet fur-baby gets back to even better than before.

I'm glad that Lucy's not suffering. AND, I'm really impressed that the vet is excited about Lucy's progress

BIG HUGS.
