I'd like to ask you guys to say a prayer for my dog, Cash. I fear the end is near for him. He's only 4.5 years old and we've had him since he was a puppy. He's been a great and close companion to me since the beginning.
The last couple of weeks he's not been his usual self, and, yesterday, after a couple of days of shallow breathing, started coughing up blood. The vet visit has been inconclusive, but we discovered that his lung have a lot of fluid in them and his blood counts are really off. His white blood cells are really high, but his red are low and his platelet count is dangerously low.
The vet didn't know what is wrong, but it could be a cancer, an immune system disease, or even a tick borne disease. He's definitely got some type of lung infection. We've put him on some type of antibiotic and a medicine for congestive heart failure.
We're going to see if the meds help him improve over the weekend. I'm just trying to make sure he's as comfortable as possible and staying near him. It tears me up to see him struggling for breath. He has been able to sleep, but if he rolls over, he breathing is obstructed and he gets a panicked look in his eyes. The toughest part is that he looks at me as if pleading for me to help him.
I guess I'd like to ask for you to pray for comfort for him, and strength for me and my wife.
