What a Fighter!!!

Anya Update: She's still with us! What a little fighter! She took quite a bad turn for the worst yesterday and things were looking very bleak by the end of the day. She is gratefully still holding on. She's still extremely critical--just teetering on the edge--but this girl sure wants to live! I get to go see her in a couple hours and I am so happy about that. I hope it will lift her spirits to know we still are fighting for her too.

I had a long conversation with the vet this morning. His big concern right now is that the two ends of her intestines that were resected after removing the dead portion are not knitting and healing--that maybe there is not good blood flow. Her white blood cell count is still very high as well. He continues to give her IV fluids and antibiotics. We will just continue to wait, monitor, and pray.

The fact that she's held on this long is quite the miracle. We continue to pray for her recovery and healing. We again express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who continues to pray for our Anya girl. We are so humbled and grateful at the love we feel from you for this little doggie who is such an loved and important member of our family. Thank you, thank you! And, please keep praying!!!
