Updates on Mas.

[Leanne]

I would imagine it’s as often as me checking my phone to see if the vets have rung .

Currently sitting at sons piano lesson - you try explaining to the piano teacher how in the space of a week you have lost one dog and had one hospitalised without losing the plot entirely.

 

[Jacqui-S]

If you managed without crying I would be surprised

 

[Leanne]

Didn’t cry.
Still totally numb.
It’s very odd if I’m honest. I can only compare it to when my mum died and I spent a week wandering around totally normally. I suspect the panic re Mas has just locked the grief into a box until I can actually deal with it.
OH on the other hand is a wreck. He’s been crying almost constantly all morning.

I’m aware I’m upset, it’s just like there is a short circuit regarding it all. I can talk about it but like it’s a film I’ve watched. Very detached.

What an absolutely horrid time you’ve been having. I’m so sorry about Mas and all his stomach problems, these dogs really do worry us when they look so dreadfully ill. So so pleased that it looks like he’s going to get better and be your happy loving dog again. I’ve been following very closely although I haven’t posted as I’ve been so admiring of you and your decision to have one last Xmas with Leo.
Sending you lots of love and hugs for you and your dog.

So pleased Mas is improving You have done so well coping with everything Leo, Mas and your hubby.. plus keeping the rest of family going. Your time to let go will come, be kind to yourself I hope you feel the love and support from all of us at the forum and it gives you some comfort Xx

You guys have been utterly amazing xxx

That's what we're here for! I don't know how you've coped. You're amazing too.

I don't know how you've coped. You're amazing too.

I second that.

 

[Ashley]

What a relief! Glad that Mas is on the mend and surgery was avoided!

 

[Cath]

The best place for Mas is home

Has he not had that poo yet? I've been thinking about Mas and his poo all day.

 

[Loraseal]

Just caught up on the good news and pending pooh status! Hopefully he will be home soon.

 

[Leanne]

Still no poo

The drugs being pumped into him are supposed to ‘be able to empty a hippo’ apparently so it’s very much a waiting game apparently. Depends on what they have had to break up food wise really.

Puts a whole new spin on the ‘eat till you burst at christmas’

 

[Lisa]

Oh man just catching up. So glad he is nearly there...hope the little package arrives soon

 

[Candy]

Oh Leanne, only just catching up with all this. What can I say? Nothing, I suspect that hasn't already been said by everyone else. What a terrible, horrible, sad, worrying time for you all. You're being incredibly brave. I suspect your numb feeling is a mixture of having to hold it all together for the rest of the family and it being just too much awfulness for you to process all at once. Loads of love, hugs, positive thoughts, best wishes, good Karma and all other manner of supportive stuff coming your way from little Joy and me. This of course includes Poo Dances!

 

[MellowYellow]

I’ve been on the road this afternoon and just this minute checked in to my hotel - practically the first thing I did was check if Mas is ok! Never has a poo been so eagerly anticipated by so many.

 

[Leanne]

Just been for a visit.

Sadly no improvement, he is now having severe watery diahrea which is bright yellow - having to remain on fluids and no sign of a even slightly solid poo.

They are now giving him until tomorrow and will be transferring him to the animal hospital in Solihull for specialist care

 

[SteffiS]

Oh Leanne I’m sorry to hear that, hope he improves and manages a decent poo overnight.

 

[Granca]

Hope you have better news soon.
