    Please pray for Willow tonight

    She is doing well--really well, much stronger over the last two weeks.  She even put her paws up on my bed to wake me up from a nap.  I haven't even been sleeping in bed all summer because she couldn't do that to wake me until just this week.  And, she's walking a little more too.  So, overall she seems OK.

    She had her blood test today and we'll know tomorrow if she can lower her Prednisone again.  If we can she might be on just one pill a day now--still a pretty high dose but a big difference compared to the four daily that we began at.

    So, if possible to include Willow in a little prayer tonight we'd really appreciate it.  I feel funny to keep asking but I also feel like I've done it every time and she's done well and if I don't (superstition is taking over) something might change!

    Thanks!

    Lori and Willow Chow

    Lori - I had no idea. I knew she was ill, but I didn't think it was that bad. I'm so sorry. I will definitely keep you and Willow in my thoughts and prayers. I will be looking for a post tomorrow with some good news.

    Thank you very much everyone, you too pan YELL, LOL!

    I'm having some trouble sleeping as I do every time we are waiting for these results.  I just sit up most of the night just counting the hours until the vet calls.

    Yes, she was pretty sick and still does have a ways to go.  But, overall doing quite well considering the medication, her age and what the illness actually was. 

    THANK YOU ALL!!

    Thank you so much everybody!

    I heard back and the results were good!!!  So, she's down to one pill and in AM and 1/2 pill in the evening!!  In total she's down from the original dose of 80mg of Prednisone to 30mg.  The weaning off process is very slow. 

    THANKS AGAIN!!
