Denim update

I didn't sleep well last night. I was thinking about Denim all night. Elijah and I talked and we both agreed that we would put him to sleep if there was no improvement today. Well, when I went to visit him this morning, he lifted his head when he heard my voice. I spent an hour with him this morning. The vet told us that he would receive a blood transfusion today and hopefully he would be a little better this afternoon. (I actually met the blood donor.)

The afternoon visit was much better. When I went in to see him the staff said that he must be feeling better because he growled when they tried to draw blood or mess with his iv. When he heard my voice he tried to stand up, but he was too weak, so he just rested his head on my leg. I hung out with him for an hour and then I left.

I am so grateful for all of the support that I have received from my friends and family. I really do appreciate all of the text messages. We are taking this one day at a time, and I really appreciate your support during this difficult journey.
