Jack's back home again :)

This amazing dog of ours has done it again - somehow beaten the odds and fought his way back from death's door. The rollercoaster of ME has been harder on us than him I think! He handles everything so well. He hated the nasal oxygen tube and was so glad to get it out. He's now resting comfortably and we took a short walk this morning. His right lung is pretty ravaged by AP and he has a long way to go, but he had a good meal this morning and took all 5 pills in dogfood meatballs (the first one, chased by many others). So far, so good. We'll beat this thing yet. :)
Thank you for all of the support... it means a lot.

Comment by Lara Kretler on September 13, 2009 at 10:06am: Devon, do you mean Jack's symptoms when intially diagnosed with ME and then MG, or Jack's symtoms when he came down with AP? AP symptoms to watch for include difficulty breathing, extreme discomfort/pain, inability to lie down or get comfortable. Those were Jack's symptoms anyway! Scary stuff. :(
