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 sorry to read this Regina. I can only imagine how hard it is. I hope the platelet count rises soon and he can get his first surgery done soon. (((HUG)))

This is so sad to hear. Praying he gets better-thinking of you xoxo

Regina, I am so sorry to hear this. Bless his heart, it sounds like he is a real trooper. I am praying that you both will have all of this behind you real soon!! Hang in there and please know that we are keeping you in our thoughts.

[Regina and Hurley]

Thank you..

It's almost like Hurley knew it ruptured...he was acting funny this morning. Like he knew he had to go in to the vet and get his cyst poked at again...

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

Regina, It is going to get better. I am so sorry for this setback. Hang in there!!!

[Regina and Hurley]

Thank you Fudge and Vern...yes it's a setback..if II had a magic wand I would make those cysts go away, rewind 6 months back and start all over again!! I feel like Hurley has missed out on a lot..

[Laurie, Fudge, and Vern]

Regina, He has a loving home with people willing to fight for him. I would say Hurley is a pretty lucky Dood. I think he needs an ice cream cone. Ice cream can work wonders :)

[Allyson, Peri & Taquito]

I hate to heat this. Hoping he gets better soon so he can have the surgery. Thinking of you.

[Jane, Guinness and Murphy]

I'm so sorry for Hurley.  I know you were really worried that this would happen.  Here's hoping that platelet count improves quickly so you can move ahead with the surgery.

You are a wonderful doodle mom. Keep your chin up. I hope he is better soon.

[Ricki and Tara (doodle)]

I'm so sorry to hear this Regina! Shoot! Bless his little heart and yours too! You know we are all standing with you and praying that Hurley will get beyond all this soon!  It must be so frustrating for you right now! :(

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

I'm sorry for this setback and really hope the culture comes back negative.

I know how hard it is to have a sick dog who is constantly being poked at by vets, and I can tell you it's much harder on you than it is on Hurley. Our dogs have a way of knowing that people are trying to help them. Hurley is going to be fine, in fact better than fine. No matter what life throws at him, he'll be able to take it in stride.

Hang in there.
