[Dailydrool] Brudder Elwood is worse

[BasetSavr5 at aol.com]

Momma again-or what is left of me--Elwood has stopped vomiting, but now is  
in so much pain and is running a fever. We have been with him since 7 am, hubby 
 stuck in his hand and rubbed him and was very promptly bit. Elwood has a set 
of  choppers and he sure used them. At least yesterday he was his big goofy 
self--so  we have repeated all the tests, done a barium x-ray, more tests than 
I could  list, and nothing is clear cut. I have even taken samples of plants, 
we have a  claim with poison control, we are covering all bases, and it looks 
like they  might do exploratory surgery yet today. They have him heavily 
sedated now and  Doc told us to go home--we are looking a bit ruff, frayed, and I 
know  we  are getting in the way. The worst part is not knowing--and all the 
others are  fine. Doc said that sometimes you have to go with your gut, even 
when the test  appear to be okay--they are just a tool, and looking at the dog 
tells him more.  I ask myself if we missed something yesterday, but no, I don't 
think so--he was  a different dog yesterday, and whatever this is, I just 
happed to be there  within seconds, and hauled him off to the vet.
So that is all I know--even Elder Clara is looking for him--the house is so  
quiet without him.
So if you have anymore drool we can sure use it--
The wonderful e-mails have been about all that have me holding it  together--
Thanks to my wonderful drool family.
