Hello,
I am the RMSF/Hypothyroidism topic person and I wanted to send a request out for prayers for my baby girl. To update, I have taken her back to the vet and her anemia is better, but that's it. We are increasing the Thyroid medicine and doubling the Prednisone and the Vet said she should show some difference good or bad in the next week. I have his pager # if we have any problems. Unfortunately, she is feeling worse, has fallen a couple of times in the last few days. My Wonder-Vet (and I )am starting to fear that the RMSF has done so much damage that we may never catch up.
Her name is Jersey, she is 5 years old, and she is a Border Collie / St. Bernard Mix. I adopted her from the pound on her last day(of course), she had been abused and was afraid of everything and everyone. She is the best tempered and best mannered dog I have ever owned...and I've had a few. She is calm, and sweet and loving. Everyone always comments on how well she is trained, and I have to explain that she's never had a lick of training and is just excellent on her own. Anyway...we are not even close to giving up...I'm just having a hard time watching her have a hard day.
Anyway, please remember Jersey in your prayers...I would be very thankful
