Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy- Good Bye Flynny We will miss you

happy to read flynn is doing well and enjoyed his time with his grandparents :)... hope you are having a quiet nights sleep !!! patty(milo)meka xoxox

OMG! As is my habbit with longer threads I haven't looked at before, I tend to read the last couple of pages to catch up with what is going on. There was mention of multiple surgeries and swab? I've now just finished reading the last 25 pages and OMG! WTH?? What you and poor Flynn have gone through! But I am very glad to hear that things are now going well and the metaphorical sun is now shining!

As for the real sun, I get that! Heat and more heat is what we seem to have here, with a predicted 39.5C again by the end of the week (that's 103F to most of you). And strange as it may seem to many, I've never even seen snow!

I went to NZ a couple of years ago, North island from Bay of Islands only down as far as Taupo, but what beautiful country! Very green and so different to the bushland here (though I hear Tasmania is similar) Anyone planning a visit, I highly recommend it! Yummy Ice-cream too! (Just watch out for the smell of Rotorua! You get used to it after a couple of days though :p)

Your all welcome, come on down... I will put up a tent in the back yard and take you on a tour to the lotr places Leslie! Not that there are any near me :D:D

Thx for your post Soggydoggy and your crikey your temps would kill me. We get Australia temps regularly on our news and of course updates on the awful bush fires. Just so horrible for those that happen to be in their path. Yuck. I am coming over to Melbourne in April so looking forward to that. Yes we do have good ice cream, I would like one right now but noooo back on healthy eating, so maybe a yoghurt haha. Yes, poor Flynn has been through it, but fingers crossed he is starting to come right :)

Flynn is pretty good, still hard to get him settled on a diet. He had another episode of loose poop tonight, associated with the smelly toots, I think it is the mince he has had recently. I will swap him to chicken again for a while, I mix it with the GI food that he really does not like. But other than that, pretty good! But he is due a vet visit so I must book him in... he is so enjoying the break from visiting them that I hesitate to rock the boat :rolleyes:

Love to all
Trish xx

Haha my new avatar a bit small on it! But it is a pic of Flynn walking up the beach the night before we went down for adrenalectomy, I was taking photos of him and bawling that they may be his last. But nope... he still here YAY!!

Flynn said "no way am I giving up my walks on the beach".

Trish, you have done an amazing job and I know Flynn is taking his cues from you, so keep that positive half full glasss attitude you have going, it truly helps Flynnie. My IMS said Zoe "feeds" off me which is why she waited until after the Zoe's stim was complete to discuss her vulva owie. Her statement hit home like no other. We have to utilize every tool we can:D:D:D:D:D:D

You go girl:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

yay Flynn... Of course he is still here. What a tough cookie he has proven to be.

you know Shysie had issues as well with diet. Would go angry potties to puke alternating. I gave up on ALL processed foods. Soft, kibble, all of it. and cookies too. I home cook her meals, make 2-4 weeks at a time and then add supplements to each serving. We consulted with Nutritionist during all this, and I am thrilled with all results with home cook meals. She does so much better (knock on wood) and has for a good year now.
I am glad he is getting back more and more to perfect health. sweet sweet little guy. :)

Flynn is the little that just keeps on going. I can't imagine anything else for him. You are the brave soul who always is looking at the positive with a heart of gold. That's how I always think of you two. :)
arggh, maybe he was having sympathy poops with molly the other day, cause she started to get loose and I gave her some carrot, that seemed to do the trick. I never know what is going on with those poops.

hugs,
Sharlene and Molly Muffin

Hi Trish,

Just checking in on you and Flynn. I hope he is continuing to do well and is getting stronger every day. I love the new avatar, brave little Flynny! Thanks so much for your encouraging words about Jasper. I tend to get really down on myself, your post really helped cheer me up a bit. :)

Love and hugs from me and Jasper

Hi everyone, thanks for all your lovely messages! Flynn stayed at Mum and Dad's last night as I went out to a party for my friends birthday and was home late. I think he is doing good, but it is definitely time for a trip to vet. I rang to make appt yesterday but he needs BP done and he wants him to stay for a while to calm down, but only my vet was in yesterday and he was booked solid so it will have to be later this week now.

I am trying to get him off the Previcox, especially with his high ALP. So he has not had it since yesterday will see how he goes till we see vet later this week. Not sure what else to give him, he is not in real bad pain with his arthritis but he has been better taking it, hope there is something else not to strong he can have. Panting still, trembling still.. those symptoms have not gone with the surgery unfortunately.

Bowels still tricky. But our problems seem pretty minor to others on here, I feel silly reporting them :rolleyes: I am not calm Tina, I worry just as much as you and just hoping to have a calm patch for a while as we all are but I get down when I see some of the things in Flynn I thought would have disappeared by now and my mind keeps thinking there is still something else wrong with him that we have not managed to discover yet :( But we do have more good days now and we all keep trucking along hoping for the best :o

We have just been for a lovely walk up the beach this evening, just a beautiful night, blue skies, warm but not too hot :D

Have a good week everyone... xx
