healing light, energy, prayers for Algiers please [View all]
I've been unable to be here much lately due to broken pc in repair shop. Am posting this from a library.
Some of you have followed the ups and downs of my various critters, including Algiers, my coming 27 year old arabian gelding whom I rescued from starvation some 22 years ago.
He started showing signs of some problems a couple weeks ago. It was on again, off again. Then last Saturday, didn't eat his breakfast. He's been in steady decline since then. I called the vet Monday when normal emergency treatment didn't fix the problem. Vet was out Wednesday, dentist yesterday and vet again today. The vet was insisting he wasn't colicking, but finally decided to give colic treatment today as a "palliative," along with taking blood to check his chemistries.
The bottom line is either he was colicky and that stopped him from eating and drinking, getting him dehydrated and more colicky... or he is going into major organ shutdown.
Please help send energy for my boy to either recover or to have a peaceful passage. Energy please to me to have the strength to be there for him if I have to put him down....
