These words are, touching and beautiful and eloquently written

Keeping faith, love and hope alive for you, for me, for everyone

May your day be filled with blessings
Like the sun that lights the sky,
And may you always have the courage
To spread your wings and fly!

Niece Update from mah Big Sister:

"She sat up in a chair for about 4 hours, the Physical Therapist came by

to help her back to bed...but not before getting her to walk 7 feet first!

Lots of difficulty lifting and moving her feet but she did it and promptly

passed out once back in bed. Doc just passed through very pleased

with how she is doing and said getting

this far...is nothing short of a Miracle.

Like I didn't know this, but it was awesome to hear!"

May you have -
Walls for the wind
And a roof for the rain,
And drinks bedside the fire
Laughter to cheer you
And those you love near you,
And all that your heart may desire

For her mom;

For her family and friends; and

For the doctors and all medical staff.

Hi there folks!! I wanted to update you all on Ivan's status and what's been happening. I've been working and haven't had time to make a lengthy post until now. I'm happy to give you all a very upbeat report.

Ivan's been doing much, much better!!! I think I told you all that I took Ivan to the vet last Wednesday for xrays and a tube feeding. He was looking a little better then, but I was still holding my breath because the vet told me that he was still trapping some barium and wasn't out of the woods yet. Anyway, at that time, she gave me some more Baytril (topical antibiotic) to put on his back and some calcium solution to mix with some warm water for Ivan to soak in and absorb. Well, I wasn't sure how this all would go, because I knew I was coming up on a long weekend at work and I'm always rushed and pushed for time when I work 3 12-hour shifts in a row. At any rate, I just figured I'd do the best I could for him, even if it meant losing some sleep, myself. Myra and Ivan are like my own children, since I don't have any, and when you have "kids", this is what you do to take care of them, especially when they're sick. So, Ivan was pretty cooperative with the whole thing, allowing me to apply the Baytril to his back, and he patiently sat in the little water dish with the calcium solution for an hour. He was so very good about all this...I was pleasantly surprised!! The only thing that really concerned me was the fact that I couldn't tell if he was eating any crickets. I was worried that he might not have the energy to try and hunt.

I took both Ivan and Myra to the vet this morning. I wanted the doctor to meet Myra and get some baseline numbers on her, particularly her weight, which is really good, as she's always been so healthy and seems to consciously take good care of herself. Ivan's a little more "catch as catch can", but I've been told "he's a boy"!!! Anyway, I got a very, very good report on Ivan!!! The doctor took an xray and it revealed that all of the barium given to Ivan last week has passed through and it appears that he has also probably passed his blockage, too!!! He's no longer bloated and distressed and he has also maintained his weight, neither losing nor gaining since he was last weighed last week. We can only surmise that he must be eating!!! He's still sitting with his little mouth open, from time to time, but he's not sitting and gasping like he was. The only thing we can think of is that he may have had some worms migrate to his lungs, so the doctor gave him a little injection to kill any lung worms he might have. She also gave him another tube feeding and gave both Myra and Ivan another dose of Panacur, which is a medication for intestinal parasites.

Right now, both babies are back in the Big Frog House resting comfortably!! Both frogs turned dark brown during the trip, which means that they were both stressed, but they're now both slowly changing back to a lovely (and healthy) teal green. I'm just trying to keep the house quiet and peaceful so they can sleep.

So, once again, thank you all for all of your kindness, thoughtfulness, prayers, healing light, support and love. I really think that that is what got us all through this. The doctor says that Ivan is still recovering, as these kind of frogs (White's Tree Frogs) do everything slowly. The important thing is, it now looks like we're on the upswing and getting better!!! Every day a little bigger step in the right direction, I guess!!!

Oh, and Ivan's back to singing!!!! He sang at least twice last night, at least, that I heard!!

I posted a very nice picture I took of Myra, the other day, in my gallery. She was sitting on the big ledge all pretty-like and I couldn't resist!!

~Theo, Myra and Ivan~
