GreytHurleyDawg Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I'm so happy to hear that Charlie is home and hoping it is a one time occurrence! I got lots of good info from this topic and your original one. My heart dog Hurley had an exciting life of traumatic incidents every other year and his first was aspiration pneumonia which was a breathing/ gagging issue as well, no idea how he got it. Let's hope Charlie has an uneventful year.....uneventful is soooooo nice! Be well, Charlie!

CharlieRhea Posted February 23, 2015 Author Share Posted February 23, 2015 I’m heartbroken. I had to take Charlie to Tufts again last night. He had fluid build up around his heart. I was going to have non invasive surgery to stop that. I am sad to say he has fluid in 2 other places. His Lungs and abdomen. I am waiting to hear from the vet whether I can take him home and have a little time with him. I write this through my tears and will try to remember that he was so much loved these past 3 yrs. I may not be back to this forum although you have all been so wonderful. Hoping i can have a week with him here at home or maybe more. He is only 5yrs old. :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharlieRhea Posted February 23, 2015 Author Share Posted February 23, 2015 This mornings Doctor just called: Charlie will have an echocardiogram tomorrow which should tell them if there is a mass and a sonogram on his abdomen. So maybe? he will be ok? His red cell count is dropping but he ate well. He will stay overnight to be monitored. Prayers please. Maybe it isn't over- will know more tomorrow. I won't let him suffer though, that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
