Marqus has been re admitted to the hospital.
His wounds are the biggest reason for these repeated episodes. This time the good news is getting blood cultures early for his temp 99 to 100 made the difference!!
He had chills after the wound debridement.
Also hindsight is 20/20 when his blood count drops and doesn't recover we have trouble.
What is amazing is how his service dog in training
Stays right with him Chewy will sniff him head to toe
If something is different.
This is the 3rd time he has done this and then we noticed the wound change and a crises.
Smells were not apparent to our noses and I'm the queen of smell.
This time we listened went straight into the doctor . The wound was taken care of and then off to get labs , blood and the push for blood cultures.
It worked !! He was admitted BEFORE he crashed!!!
He has never had back to back sepsis . I was terrified.
Even if a new type of bandage is placed or he is using a new device they know it's different. They also do not sleep unless he does.
They knew he was sick followed me around to get him ready and it was as if they lined up to get their collars on to go to doggy school.
Service dog training is a wonderful journey and it's worth it no matter how much time or cost!!!
I think Chewy can come to the hospital now I have to check that out.
Thousands of hours these pups teach me something everyday.
It's funny they know our very old Happy dog is senile and rickety they are very gentle with him. Lol.
I told Marqus to keep his spirits UP we are going to get this under control!!!
LOL now all I need is a body double one if me to care for Marqus and another to do an extreme house make over.
Oh yeah and one more to go to work and try not to go completely broke.
Thank goodness a call for my husband came in.
We are getting kinda of old to be working 7 12 hr shifts but bills don't pay themselves and we have to keep pushing.
Thanks for everyone's prayers we need them!!!
