Building Families Through The Miracle Of Adoption

Sep 23, 2008

We want to come home...but more than anything, we want GABBY to come back home!!!

Poor Gabby is back in the hospital at Carolina Vet. Services in Charlotte. She somehow got into Jason's overnight bag and ate a bar of hotel soap!!! She starting throwing up and Jason took her to the vet hospital immediately based on her pre-existing medical conditions! OH, I AM SICK TO MY STOMACH AND A BALL OF NERVES! Please say a prayer for Gabby. I have called the vet office through the day (night for you) and she is doing well. They don't want her to eat anything based on the irritation of the soap so she is on IV fluids. The vet tech. told me that once Dr. Jaeger comes in they will re-check her numbers and try to feed her...if she keeps it down, she can go back home! PLEASE LORD be with Gabby!

SAD in Vietnam,

Shannon

Gabby will be alright. She needs all the rest and fluids so she can handle this little firecracker that is about to come into Gabby's life. Shannon said that I have spoiled her but she is so precious and I have prayed for her to come into our lives for so long, well yes I am GUILTY as charged. I just want all of you to soon get home so she can really she all the people that love her and waiting to meet her. I can't stand the thought of leaving her. I hope Jason can come back and bring his family home.

Poor Gabby. I hope she feels better soon. when you have a chance someday, I'd like to compare notes on blind dogs. :)

It sounds trivial, but I worry so much about my puppies when I'm in Vietnam - we have to board them and the place is wonderful but still...no one will take care of them like we do...

Now Shannon you know Gabby ate that bar of soap b/c she was missing her friends and her condo in Charlotte. I'm sure she is getting all the attention in the world. Those ladies just love her at the Doggy Hospital. She is going to be o.k and I will be glad to go by and check on her. Just let me know if there is anything we can do, and it will be done. I know it's got to be stressful but soon you and Halle-Grace will be home and Gabby will be feeling better.

Dana,
Jason said the same thing!!! He said Gabby thought, "hey, mom & Halle-Grace are in an expensive high-rise so I need to see my condo" Thanks for the laugh! OH, please pray she just had some bad breath and needed some fresh breath with the soap!!! POOR THING! You know how much we love Gabby Girl!!!

Kris Ann,
I know the feeling! My mother-in-law took AMAZING care of Gabby while Jason was here. She ate the soap out of Jason's travel bag. She is one more mess! You will be in VN soon and then back home so at least the four legged babies will only be boarded for a short time! As my mom said, they will need lots of rest to get ready for the babies!!!!

MISS MY HENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
