A little bump in the road...

[Regina and Hurley]

Hurleys surgeon called. Hurleys platelet count is too low. They think it's the antibotics that he is on. They are going to take him off of those antibotics and put him on new ones. We are going to have to wait until May 15th for a recheck to see if his platelet count is higher.

I am going now to pick up Hurley and bring him home...I just want to get these cysts off his head.

I think I made the right decision by not going through with the surgery. It was up to me and I didn't want to take the chance of him bleeding out or having a hard time healing because of the low platelet count.

Thank you all for keeping y our thoughts with Hurley..I will keep you posted..

That makes sense...

I had a Shiba Inu once who needed low doses of prednisilone all his life because he had a mold allergy that nothing else would help. His quality of life was very good and he lived to the ripe age of 14.

I'm sorry for this "bump", it has to be hard on your nerves. Hoping the new antibiotics help and Hurley's surgery can happen soon.

[Amy, Cubbie & Ollie]

Oh no, I'm sorry you have to wait again, but I think I would've done the same thing.  Better safe than sorry, especially after you have come this far. 

[Pam & Trixie]

Im sorry to hear this.  I hope his platelets come up soon

[Kaytlin and Cooper]

Sorry to hear the surgery was cancelled, but i think you did the right thing. Waiting a little longer will not matter

[Ricki and Tara (doodle)]

Oh, what a disappointment! But it's nice to hear the doctor is taking every precaution to ensure that Hurley is safe!  Hope you are back on track soon!

[Linda, Charlie Brown and Beau]

I am so glad you made the choice to wait.  It seems to me you are making all the right choices Regina.  Hang in there!

[Jane, Rooney & Stuart]

You are the BEST doodle mom EVER!!!!  I'm sorry for this delay, agonizing I'm sure, but you always put Hurley's well being first.  We'll cross our paws that all is a go in a couple of weeks!

[Sequoia & Dudley]

So sorry, Regina. My heart goes out to you and Hurley. If it isn't one thing, it's another, and sometimes back to the same thing. I sure have you in my heart, and Dudley says to hang in there.

[Lisa, Daisy & Dexter]

It's just a delay, it will get better and then off with those nasty things.

[Jennifer,Chloe & Myla]

Bummer, he was probably relieved to be picked up though, keep us posted!
