Prayer request for Pete's dog Max

Wishing all the best for a quick recovery for Max.
{{hugs}} for Pete as well.
 
I'm very sorry to hear this, and wish Max and Pete all the best. Such sad, sad news.
 

Sending thoughts and prayers. I lost my 12 year old baby girl in my avatar two weeks ago.
 
I hope Max is doing better this morning, and that Pete and Walter have their prayers answered today.
 
Hi everyone,

Just wanted to give everyone not on Facebook an update on Max's condition. He made it through the night, which was not expected to happen - so that's good news. He's listed in critical but stable condition at the moment. The big issue right now is sepsis. They are trying to get the infection under control, but its an uphill battle. I'm trying to take solace in the fact that AVS (Affiliated Veterinary Specialists) in Maitland are considered among the best facilities in the state. They seem competent and are not sugar coating anything. Walter and I had to make a decision yesterday on whether to put him down and we chose to allow a second surgery just to exhaust all options. We do have a DNR order in place though - I don't want to prolong his pain unless theres a light at the end of the tunnel.

This is all being complicated by the myriad of other issues Max has - Cushings disease, early stage kidney disease, thyroid issues and heart issues. Fortunately, all of these things have been well managed over the last several months, so his regular vet is a bit more optimistic than the surgeons have been.

Thanks again for all the prayers and well wishes. I'll keep you posted on how things are going.

Pete
 
OMG, that is one sick dog. Signing the DNR must have been difficult. I'm so sorry.

I hope he pulls through.

Fingers crossed.
 
Pete and Walter, I will continue to keep Max in my prayers. It's very difficult when you have a sick dog. They can't tell you what's going on....I'm in the same situation with my little girl....she's starting to go blind, and has trouble walking..she's not in pain so that's a good thing. Hugs and kisses to all of you.
 
Pete, thanks for the update. I have been thinking of you and your family all morning. I hope Max pulls though.
 
Thanks for the update, Pete. I'm keeping your Max & you & Walter in my thoughts & prayers.

Sayhello
 
You, Walter, and Max the dog are still in our thoughts and prayers. Hope Max gets better.
