To My Dear Friends: Blessed1, Jeffers, and Rev Ray, and all other Genesis Forum advisors, I want to apologize for not responding to you and all your wonderful messages., but let me tell you that they have meant the world to me. You have all given me the strength and encouragement that I need to keep trying. I truly wish I could hug you all in person! First, let me say, that I still DO HAVE Woofie at this point! God Love Him, he is still fighting- although, I am sure it is more for me than him. I took him off the MMS last w/e as I said I would due to his poor condition. As of Sunday night, he was in pretty bad shape. On awakening Monday a.m., he seemed to be even worse. I decided that it was time and that Monday evening I was going to have to let him go. I went to work and had an awful day of depression and sadness. During the day I got a call that my ill mother had to be rushed to ER, which meant I had to go be with her ( 2 hours away). I went home gathered up Woofie and my MMS and went to be with my mom, which meant putting my dreaded decision on hold for Woofie. After making sure my mom was stable as Hosp, we went and stayed at her house that night. Her little Doxy and Woofie have always loved each other and when Woofie saw Penny he seemed to perk up a bit. He ate a little for me and the next morning I started him back on the MMS- not the CDH this time. I used the info that you Jeffers and Blessed1 had sent me on dosing and started back at point A. Due to my erratic schedule, I do not seem to be able to get it in him more than 3 to 4 times in a row though (couple times in a.m. B4 work then maybe 4 times in evening). I wish I could say that he has miraculously improved, but. he is still having problems. I do not think he is as bad as last weekend, but still having trouble walking, breathing, and is bloating again today. I stopped all antibiotics and steroids and also am not giving any other supplements for now. I want to just use the MMS so that I know if it is working. The bloating has me puzzled because it seems to get worse after multiple hourly doses of the MMS. It was not as bad after he was off of it for a few days? I am using the one drop of Sod chlorite to one drop of 50% citric acid and diluting with I ounce of water and administering 3 ml of this hourly. Today is Saturday, so I am administering it hourly today and will be able to get it in him much more. Due to the bloating already today, not sure how it will go. But will keep trying. Thinking of giving him some GasX and see if it would help with bloating? He has a large pouch on the side of his belly which is dark colored like bruising and it seems to be fluid filled. I think it may be blood filled from a hematoma. I would like to aspirate it, but would probably only stess him more. He is not very active today and not interested in food as of yet. We will see how today and tomorrow go............ Please know that even though I have not been good at responding, I read and appreciate all your comments, suggestions, and well wishes for Woofie and I. Your kind words have touched me more than I can express. I truly feel blessed for finding this site and meeting all of you. You are very special people. Please keep up the prayers for the guidance I need to get through this difficult time. Will post updates as I am able. Thank you!
Your forever grateful friend, Bonnie.
P.S. Thank God, my mother is home and doing better.. Cannot handle any more stress at this point!
