Finn is really sick! please pray for him...

so upset...

have been out with him all day, and he was fine... came back in for maybe an hour, went out to feed and saw him rolling a little thought that was ok... brought them both inside and he just rolled constantly! would not stop!!! of course I got very scared rang my good friend Karen and Renee (Anyssa Park) and got the vet straight out!

HR was 180!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

we got him on glucose fluids, gave him a shot of finnadine/ Bannamine vet has given me more just in case (thank goodness!!)

gums were very tacky! and NO sound from gut at all!!

he got the catheder out after 150mm

would have liked him to have more... but every little bit helps... after an hour we checked his HR again had gone down to 98 Thank Goodness!!!!

gums had pinkened a little bit but still a little pale

sorry will continue later just rang vet back with a report she wants us to take him into the vets...

My thoughts are with you, Finn and Suzie. I hope the vets will find out what is wrong and will help him back to his normal good health very quickly.

Not good news

xrays n ultrasound confirmed he has a large intestine full of gas!! Praying that he passes it with a big fart n poop over night... If not I have to make the decision!! Surgery will cost 3-5000!! N it's not guaranteed n things can go wrong during n after surgery please pray for a miracle but if it comes to it that I male the right decision for Finn n suzie!!! Thankyou for all your love n support!! Worst day ever!! Can I restart please!????? Night all will let you know if I hear any news... If I do though I doubt it will be good as the vet said no news is good news... Xxx
 
He is strong and healthy so i am sure he will pull through but I have been in your position so I know just how you feel Cassie.

Hugs Renee
 
Seriously praying for Finn, Cassie

Thank you for the updates and I am thinking about you (((HUGS)))
 
Poor little Finn, his tummy must be soooooo painful, bless him. At lest the vets can help him with that. He is a very strong little fella Cassie - all due to your care and attention - so remember that as you send him your love in your prayers.

Come on little Finn, listen to all the prayers coming to you from accross the World. We need you and your Momma safely back home with your loving family.
