March 2 2019 A Sad Day

It is with heavy heart that I post this last post. Our sweet amazing miracle girl Maggy has crossed the rainbow bridge as of March 2nd, 2019. She died from cancer. I'm without words and my heart is so heavy. I pray I will see her loving face again.

You have taught me so much, life and love are worth fighting for! I am sorry I could not save you.

Maggie is doing great!

So hard to believe how much time has passed since this sweet puppy fell in front of my car. I could not believe that 200+ ticks and red mange could be so bad, then parvo (she is quite a fighter) and then the bowel inception. She is our baby! 

Our Girl is still going strong and loving believe it or not her little friend...Mattie was very gentle and under adult supervision while sitting on Maggy. She loves him so and was not hurt or upset.

We almost lost our Girl!

Maggy had an inception of her intestine. She had to have emergency surgery. Thank God that the area turned pink after the vet untangled it. They said it was miraculous that her intestine was not severely damaged and that she would be fine. They can't promise me that it won't happen again but I watch her like a hawk.

Alas Maggy is Sick again!

Maggy is again fighting the red manage. I will just post

Maggy is looking so good!

She will celebrate her first year with us on May 28. She is finally looking good and feeling good too!
What a journey what a year!

Update on Maggy

She is doing well. Her hair has grown in and other than periodic stress she is coping with her mange. It comes and goes.
Thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers,
Debi and Maggy

Day 105

Maggy has really changed. She started liquid ivermectin and the changes were instant. After her first dose of ivermectin, within 45 minutes, she was playing like she had never played before. We think that first dose reduced her itching somewhat and she was able to feel a slight bit better and she could focus her energy on the important stuff playing. With in the first week she was a new dog. We had no idea she would have the energy and playfulness that she has. I truly believe she is still a pup or at least been ill all of her life and now has discovered that she can play. Like a baby she laid on her back (unbelievable as she hated that before) and put her big feet up and stared at them and playfully bit at them. She still has hair issues but she is wonderful.

day 36

Maggy is doing so well, however her glands are still swollen and the vet is suggesting a maglignate lymph disease...We will see.

Day 44

Maggy is really coming along. She still has swollen lymph glands and running fever. We are praying that she make it.

Day 30

Maggy is doing great and hopefully parvo is a thing of the past. I had to go away for several days and Maggy is in the good hands of her daddy. He sent her photos and she is depressed cause I am gone. I can't wait to get home again. I miss my family.

Day 26

I think she is going to make it!!!

Day 20-Parvo

Maggy is holding her own. She still isn't eating but is drinking and is able to hold her bowels but it is still water when she goes. I am so scared but she is full of energy when I take her out but sleeps most of the time.Thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers,
Debi

Day 19

Terrible News - Maggy has Parvo!!! Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers, Thank you so,
debi and Maggy

Day 18

Maggy is doing great but has several issues. She tripped and hurt her foot yesterday and then wouldn't eat til today. She dehydrated herself as she wouldn't eat or drink till this afternoon. She is a doll and usually will stay with me outside but she is following JC our neighbor car chaser. I am so concerned and have had to leash her to prevent her running away.

Day 11

Maggy continues to improve. She scared me to tears tonight. She is a great pup and is well behaves. We don't have to leash her to walk her to our fenced backyard. Tonight on her bathroom walk (it was very dark) a strange dog passed our drive and she took off chasing him away. I didn't know that she was that strong I started to cry as I knew I would never see her again. I ran into the house for a flash light. As I turned to the open dorr, there she was looking at me like I was crazy. i love that girl.

Day 10

More great progress...She has now gotten to the Ottoman..

Day 9

Maggy is really improving daily. The only thing is that her skin is so dry from the dips. She is crusty..but I love her so!

Day 8

Maggy is doing great...I didn't take any day photos of her. This is her this evening groggy from sleep. I don't know why her hair has all gone. The only thing is that I have had to dip her in a Lime Sulphur dip for her mange. Her skin is no longer oozy or sticky. She has dry skin and it has scabs on it. She is always trying to rub herself on pants legs or the ground or what ever. We try so hard to keep her from. I am praying that she starts growing her hair back.

This is Maggy's big sister our sweet Carlee! Maggy loves her and Carlee isn't sure about Maggy yet! It is amazing Carlee treats Maggy very gently like she knows that Maggy isn't well, she isn't scared of her but just very gentle.
