Midas is being so brave and so strong, despite everything. We thought we were losing him on Tuesday.....
The photo at the country park was taken Monday Morning and he was so happy.
The photo on the sofa was Monday evening when he started to go down hill a bit.
It was that night, well the early hours of Tuesday morning to be exact that he'd deteriorated and we took him to the emergency vet. Rather than PTS which was the probable outcome of taking him he was given another chance to buy him a little more time as he wasn't quite ready to go just yet. Even if it was only a few days or a weeks it was worth a try.
The extra intra muscular injectable diuretics to help clear fluid that was collecting in his lungs and the bronchodilator to aid his breathing helped and he was able to come home Tuesday afternoon.
His time now is very short, but he is still home clinging onto the love given to him. Licking my chin and still having the odd belly rub when he's in the mood for it. He touches everyone who gets the pleasure to meet him. The Vet who signed him out gave him a big kiss and cuddle as we left and said what a Wonderfull dog he is.
My deepest thanks to everyone who's helped keep him alive and Stephen and SHAK for giving me such a precious friend.

Such amazing spirit from a wonderful dog that is just so determined to hang on to the life that he was deprived of for so long. Thank you to the vets who were very kind and didnt charge an out of hours fee or for a scan. However, we still now have a bill to pay. If anybody would like to contribute towards it please do so via:
PayPal:
