I finally got to talk to the vet about 45 minutes ago. Harri did survive te night, and she is breathing more easily thanks to massive doses of antibiotics and steroids.

He has referred us to a specialist in Orange County. I was out in Orange County when he called me, so I'm going to be putting in a lot of miles today (it's about a 3 hour round trip). I stopped at home just long enough for a bathroom break and to update everyone. As soon as I hit the "Send" button I'll be hopping in the car, going to pick up Nancy at work, and picking up Harri at the vet and making a high-speed run to Orange County. I'm glad Nancy is coming, since I'm going to want to hold Harri and I got no sleep last night so my reaction time is kind of slow. After the specialist looks at Harri's x-rays and lab results he should be able to tell us if Harri has a reasonable chance to survive. For the rest of today your purrs and prayers would be more welcome than ever before. With a little luck, by 3:30 or 4:00 Pacific time I'll be learning if my little sweet baby will live or die. In addition to purrs for Harri's health, we could also use financial purrs. That Nancy's idiot boss will release her to her new job (that pays 30% more than her current one), that I'll find a job, that the insurance company will pay off on my totaled pickup quickly, and that the specialist will take payments.

Please keep us updated. We will all hope for the best when you talk to the specialist. MaryL |

Poor Dan & Nancy, poor Harri. Lots of purrs and prayers for everything you need to get through this. Don't let money be an issue if her treatment is expensive, go ahead and okay it. The money or the means to pay it will come from somewhere, mine always did even when things seemed a bit hopeless. If you mail me your address I will send you a bit to help, you can decide yourself whether to put it towards the vet or the specialist bill. Bad luck often seems to feed on itself somehow things always happen when you can least take it, or afford it, one disaster on top of the other. It's happening to Ginger-lyn, to me, and now you. This is a powerful group. I am sure we all feel like we know you and sweet little Harri, I know I do. I am also sure that we can as a group, help you out financially at this time towards Harri's urgent medical care even though it looks like the expense might be scary. lots of hugs Tweed, KFC & BF (sweltering in a heatwave in the UK) "Dan M" wrote in message ...
