Puppy

Named for his strange barking meow, Puppy was a big ole cat wrho played like a wee little pup. He and Tooie loved to play together with paper bags and milk rings; a total goofball.

Tooie's fever spiked and has since gone down, but he remains fully on the respirator. He still has no response to stimuli. The doc on call is a cardiologist and wanted a neurologist to read the results of the EEG. Unfortunately, the neurologist won' do so until after 5pm. there seems to be a general concensus that this is a physical decline in conjunction with a vegetative state. They won't let us make the final decision to take him off of all life supporrting measures until the final word from the neurologist.

This will have to be short as i think that blogspot is blocked on the hospital internet and i'm typing this on my phone. I will update again whenwe hear from the neurologist.

much love,

Jenn

  1. Thanks, Jenn. Sounds like everyone is being strong. Hard to play the waiting game, I know, and very hard when it's not a clear-cut situation.
    Hang in there,
