just checking in quickly...
just talked to the overnite vet...Talus is still stable...he was on oxygen, but they took it off cause he was breathing well on his own for now....
he is still in intensive care but seems more alert and responsive....
it was very sudden, and I wish I could have told all of you sooner...the vets diagnosed him with "Chylothorax" (see pet place.com for the best description)...
basically it is lymph fluid draining into his chest cavity...
probably a rupture in his small vessels...this is where the surgery might come in...
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH for praying for Talus....
It's working, so keep praying...it's almost midnight here and I have to get back to check on the "little" guy...as soon as I have more of an update i will let you know....
again, thank you all for your support....I feel like I have a few extra hearts praying for him tonight...I thank you all for your caring words....
