Please keep your fingers crossed - colic surgery

The vet has just phoned through his morning update and it seems there may have been a small improvement over night. He is still refluxing but the amount they have got out of him has gone down a little. They are going to scan him later today and will then decide if we give him a little more time or if we follow our original plan for today. I've been told not to get my hopes up as the vet says horses like him tend to yoyo, but please, please everyone keep praying for a miracle. My boy is fighting so hard but is getting weak now.
 
Sending you enormous vibes. I hope he manages to find the strength from somewhere to over come this.

But if not, he's so lucky to have you giving him every chance to get better. I hope its the outcome you want, I'm so sad he hasn't picked up yet :(

Sending you the hugest, last the longest, loving-est vibes and double for George xxxxx
 
Have like so many of us on here, been following your story and praying hard.

I will be thinking of you and your boy today. I hope it goes as well as it can, which seems very inadequate to say but we are with you too. Be strong for your boy just like you have been.

I've been following George's treatment and hoping that the news would get better.

I think we can all understand what a horrible situation you are in and sympathise massively.

It is so hard to watch a horse (or any animal) suffer and not be able to help. All you can do is take the vet's advice. I hope you have some friends with you.

Sending lots of vibes for George and you.
 
This is a heartbreaking thread. Your boy sounds as if he is a fighter. Be strong for him whatever happens, you are doing him proud honey. We have all our fingers, paws and hooves crossed for him here.
 
I'm absolutely delighted George has made a slight improvement. I know he's not out of the woods yet but he's a fighter and he's getting the best of care. I've got everything crossed for you both.

((((hugs)))) for you and George
 
The vets have suggested we give him another day. His scan this morning was bad, nothing moving at all, but there have been some other small signs of improvement. We've been told not to get our hopes up as things could go very badly wrong very quickly. I don't know whether I'm coming or going, but for now he is still with us and fighting like anything. Please keep praying for our miracle.
 
Been following this thread with various degrees of 'blubbiness'

Come on George xx

How do I explain to OH that I'm blubbing over a horse that I've never even met :(
