Cyst rupture..

[Regina and Hurley]

I woke up this morning and saw that Hurley had bleeding and oozing come from his cyst again. My heart dropped into my stomach. I called Dr. G. I took Hurley in. He cleaned it and took another culture. He thinks the MRSA has returned or it's may be now another infection. :(

We will get the results in a couple of days. I feel so bad for him. He has got to be tired of doctors poking and cleaning these. He is now on a new antibotic called Doxycycline 100 mg. I am worried about all these antibotics my dog has been out on. This is exhausting...i feel horrible for him. He doesn't understand. He still wags his tail and licks the doctors as they work on him. I can't wait for the day that Hurley can run with other dogs and be healthy....

I wrote the other day in his blog that God put him with me because he knew all the problems Hurley was going to have. God knew that I would fight for him...I wouldn't give up...

It feels like a never ending circle...rupture, clear up, rupture, clear up....infection after infection. We can't do the surgery until his platelet count gets higher...

Thank you all for being there for me when I start ranting....my heart breaks for Hurley...what a year he has had...

Thank you,

Regina and Hurley

I'm so sorry to hear this Regina. Keeping you both in thoughts and prayers.

[Jarka, Monty & Auggie]

Oh no! So sorry to read this, Regina. Poor baby Hurley. But you are completely right: there is a reason why Hurley is with you. Please stay strong for him. Thankfully, he is not in pain, so let's hope it will get better very soon and he can have his surgery. Hugs to you and Hurley.

[Martha & Cooper]

Sorry to hear about Hurley's setback.   Luckily, they do tend to take things in stride and just trust us, don't they?    I had Cooper back into see his Vet today and as long as I was near, he was calm as could be.  Just like Hurley, full of kisses.  It's really a good sign that Hurley is licking and kissing the Vet as they work on the cyst.  Believe me, if it really hurt, he wouldn't be doing that.   Hugs to you both and lets pray that the surgery proceeds as scheduled.

I'm sorry this has been such a rocky road for you and Hurley but I agree that he is certainly in the right home because it is easy to see how much you love him and care about him.  I'll continue to keep sending positive thoughts your way.

[Linda, Webber and Seda]

Well how frustrating.  I am sorry you and Hurley are delayed in getting the surgery.  MRSA is a tough one..I hope this culture comes back negative and you can get on with the cyst removal.  Hang in there.  You are remarkable.

[Donna K & Quincy]

Regina, I am sorry this has happened, hopefully he will get his surgery soon and everything can get back to normal.

[Nancy, Ned, Clancy, and Charlie]

My heart is breaking for you, Regina. I know Hurley appreciates how hard you are working to make him well.  I hope Hurley's platelet count rises soon and he can have his first surgery.

[Christine & Camus]

So sorry to hear this.  Try to keep your spirits up, hopefully this will turn out to be just a minor setback.

[Pam & Trixie]

Im so sorry to hear this.

I hope these new Anitbiotics do the trick!

His Cultures come back clean, His blood count goes back up

And he gets that surgery in soon so he can get rid of the cysts for good!
