Nelson Udate August 11th

Hello friends,

Nelson had his second treatment on the 9th and 10th.  This one was pretty tough on him...he received a shot on Tuesday and had to stay overnight.  He received another shot yesterday.  He vomited some while at the clinic and wouldn't eat but he did drink.  I picked him up yesterday at 5:00 PM...I was SO happy to see him.

As my dad would say, "He feels poorly." The good news is that he is eating a little bit and he hasn't vomited any since we brought him home.  As I understand it, Saturday or Sunday may be a bad day for him.  Two weeks after the treatment is a critical time too.  Apparently that is when the majority of the worms start to die and his body has to "process" them. 

Please continue to pray for this sweet boy.

  1. Poor thing. He really is having a tough time. But it is almost finished. Hoping Saturday and Sunday are easy on Nelson.
