Hi Folks,

I am so upset right now. We have gotten very bad news about our Queenie. Tonight she is very quiet, and I am concerned.

I talked with my vet at length today. The other culture came back.

It seems that beyond the pneumonia, Queenie is allergic to the bacteria that is in her system, which explains, why the antibiotics are not working.

To counter the allergic reation, she needs to have steroids admitted. My vet says, it would kill her at this point. I am so very sad right now.

She is very quiet tonight, and coughing alot. We cannot attempt any procedure until the coughing and pnuemonia subside. The problem is, her body is fighting itself. She has been on alot of powerful meds, but due to the allergic reaction, nothing is working.

We are calling in a specialist that will see her come Monday, with my vet. I just again spoke to her.

I am so glad we did the sweep for her culture, I feel badly that I held off due to the cost. I at this point am hoping for a miracle, Lucy had one, maybe Queenie will too.

This is very serious, and Queenie, as tough as she is, needs a miracle right now. They want to do the steroid treatment asap, but cannot until there is no sign of the pneumonia.

Please guys, you have been here through this whole thing, give her blessings now, and send those prayers.


Andrea

I am , I cannot even express how I feel right now.

We are sending all the rayz and prayers we can to Queenie. I just lost my first foster, Pablo, this afternoon due to complications from the second heartworm treatment and am worried about Kibby. I can't stand any more bad news right now. Both of you Take care, Rena

Andrea,

Please don't feel guilty about not doing the test sooner. Second guessing our past decisions can never help and can only increase the stress we place on ourselves. I know if I'm not careful I find myself blaming myself for Aggie not surviving if only I had call the vet back that first night and not waited the additional 12 hours would that time have saved her? I'll never know but I do know if I dwell on the what if's it tears me up. With all the stress you are under right now that is the last thing you need to be doing to yourself.

We are all pulling for Queenie. At least now you know why things have not been working. Hopefully little Queenie keeps her reputation of being one tough little girl and the specialist on Monday will have some new ideas.

Our thoughts are with you,

Tom and the boys (Frank and Tanner)

Hi Guys,

As always, what would I do without all of you?

Rena, I am so so very sorry, I am sending you prayers for a change.

Queenie had another tough night. She woke up sputtering. I don't know if it is my imagination, because I now know what is going on, but I think she is worse.

I may call Tufts or Angell Memorial today, they are huge teaching hospitals in Boston. My vets are off today, they left me the emergency number, but I am not comfortable with that.

I will keep you posted.

Thanks so much for being there, you are all so very wonderful.

Hugs

Andrea and the Queen

May you both feel some comfort at this time and comfort each other as well. No matter what happens, Queenie is part of us now and she'll continue to inspire us. <FONT COLOR="Red">If</FONT c> she's not going to get well, I don't even know what to wish for - that she has a little longer with you or that it's quick. How tormenting to have to wait but what else can you do? Thanks for posting and our thoughts and prayers are with you both.

10-28-2000, 08:01 AM
Andrea, I do so hope that today brings good news and that the teaching hospitals can help. I want so badly to help... I am waiting to call on Kibby this morning, but the 3 kids who slept me last night think that the angel bear could help magnify rayz! More prayers and rayz coming your way from Texas. Rena, Stinker, Tess, Lucy, and yes, Kibby.

Andrea, I am heartsick for you. I hope this little girl makes it. As everyone says don't try to second guess yourself. You've done what you can do and you've given her more love in the short time she's been with you than in the whole rest of her life. My thoughts and prayers are with you both. Lanie

Dear Andrea,
I'm soooo sad about Queenie. You both deserve to make this work. I also feel like Queenie's ups and downs are part of my day.

Wish there was something I could do: wave a magic dachsie wand and make her well! It's the worst feeling when our babies are hurting and all we can do is cuddle them- but remember, Queenie IS in a place where she is much loved right now. So, whatever the outcome, this little fighter girl will have had the most important thing all creatures crave to be whole: unconditional Love.

Chin up, Sonja

Hi My Friends

It's late, I am emotional

I am at a loss

I canno tget our girl better,,and it so hurts. She is sleeping right now, but her breathing is labored.

I pray, I wish, she could just be a normal pup , and run outside without coughing, but our Queenie cannot.

I am so very upset tonight, I and my husband are going to do our first stint as Euchurist Ministers tomorrow, and maybe He will take pity on the Queen.

Folks, I need all of you to send healing rays to her, we cannot lose her

Sorry. I guess I am just down right now

You are the most wonderful people I have never met, and Queenie and I thank you!

Dottie wants to go back to the DWD. I have told Agent PEST, that we will soon.

Huge hugs

Andrea

Andrea, I am so very sorry that Queenie is in this shape. It's upsetting to all of us here, as we have grown attatched to her, even though we don't know her. If Queenie wants to continue this battle, she will. If it's meant for her to give up, she will. Of course I hope she makes it. I do believe in miracles and Guardian Angels. You never know, but I think it's time to just accept whatever happens.

Andrea,

Remember, Queenie has felt true love. She is experiencing true love right now. You know as we all do on this board that you have done your very best. Now it just may be time to say good bye. It is sad for us, but because Queenie has experienced such love, she will be ready and if it comes to that, it will be peaceful. As she has experienced love, let her too have peace if she is ready to have such peace and sleep. I pray with all my might that she may have a turn around tomorrow, but if not, she will have peace and love. What more could a pupper ask for.

Andrea, we love you and your Queen.

peace to you also,

Sandi

Hi all,

I just want to tell you all how proud I am to know all of you! I really wish I had the strength you have to do this kind of thing, but alas, I do not! I do read this forum several times daily and please know that even though I don't post much . . . I am so rooting for you. I just not built of the stuff to do this, I guess. I admire & respect you all and am proud to call you friends.

That said . . . please hang in there Andrea! You have given Queenie the greatest gift of love a furkid could ask for - and if she does go to the Bridge . . . it's YOU she'll be watching for. Oh hell, now I've got myself crying again. Rayz & prayers to you and Queenie . . .

I love you all,

Mark

PS - 00K9 said she'll cover for Pest while on this very special assignment.

Andrea,

My thoughts and prayers have been with you and the Queen every day. I wish only peace for both of you. I agree with all who have said that Queenie has known nothing but pure and honest love from you. That is the greatest gift you could ever have given to her. If it is time to let her go, she will tell you, Andrea. She knows you love her, never doubt that, no matter the decision you and she make.

You and Queenie have all my love and respect.

Still with you in spirit - you know, unless there's a reasonable chance for her, why don't you keep her at home? See what those vets have to say tomorrow. Hoping she makes it through another day.

Just remember, regardless of which way this heartbreak goes, that each day is one more day Queenie has been able to receive and return the love you and the family have given her.That is the greatest gift of all.

Andrea,

Thank you for keeping us updated. I have to believe little Queenie would be long gone if she had not found someone to love and be loved by. If she doesn't pull through at least she will have had some quality days of knowing she is loved. Sometimes knowing unconditional love can be more important than all the toys and play time. I hope she will have the opportunity to play with you in this world but if not she will be running and playing so hard at the bridge with a mouth full of shiny bright teeth that at first you will wonder who that little girl is running towards you leading the pack of dachshunds rushing to jump into your arms.

Best wishes and healing thoughts,

Tom and the Boys (Frank and Tanner)

Andrea,

I am so sad to hear the latest update. I haven't been able to log in since Friday and just logged in to check on Pablo and on Queenie. But they were both in my thoughts. Now, I type through tears...

Please don't second guess yourself. You have given this little girl so much, especially love. I agree with Tom, that your love is the main reason that she is still with you. I'm hoping that she keeps on fighting and can still beat this...

I am sending more love, hugs, prayers, rays and anything else I can think of.

I hope that the vet comes up with some answers. Please keep up posted.

I'm so sorry Queenie is still not feeling well. Everyone had already taken the words out my mouth, you have shown Queenie a love that she may never have know and that is the best gift she could have ever gotten.

Wienergal
10-29-2000, 09:34 PM
Andrea, Sonja took the words right out of my mouth: Whatever the outcome, the important thing is that Queenie has had a chance to be loved and to love a human. She never had that before she came to you.

Along with everyone else on the board, I am pulling for the two of you every single day.

Andrea,
Josie and I are sending special thoughts and healing rayz to you and Queenie. We pray long and hard for this little girl to recover. She has a special candle beside my Punkin's and I light it for her every night as I kiss my Punkin's picture and pray. Queenie must be a strong little fighter. we all must believe that she is going to pull through this. Keep positive so Queenie will feel good vibrations. And I ditto what everyone else has said...at least Queenie now knows what it is like to feel loved and cherished. I feel with my whole heart that you and Queenie will keep each other strong. Bless you Andrea. Each night as I pray I ask Punkin's spirit to be with Queenie to help her fight.
Love, Tanya

Andrea,

I'm afraid we'll really have to bring out the "bigger" rays for Queenie. Willi seems to think that the super-large-economy-bulk-Sam's Club size wasn't enough... http://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/um.gif

So here goes......

<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm30.gif" border=0> <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm30.gif" border=0> Super-duper-extra-large-mega-quadruple-sized rays coming your way Queenie<IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm30.gif" border=0> <IMG SRC="http://dachsie.org/ubb/cwmsmilies/cwm30.gif" border=0>

And now, since being a dachshund is such hard work, time for a nap, Willi sez http://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/snooze.gif

Andrea,

I'm very happy and relieved that Queenie is STILL hangin in there!http://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/smile.gif Did her labored breathing last long? This is just amazing how she's fighting this. Listen, would it be possible to start a fresh thread on Queenie? There are 2 pages, maybe you could start a new one labled 'Queenie' or something?
Wow, that Fed Ex donation is touching, isn't it? What a wonderful person!http://dachsie.org/ubb/smilies/smile.gif

Took me a while to figure out that the latest Queenie news is in the older thread, but I am so glad she is still eating well, though coughing, and I think it is good news that an angel wing is missing. Sounds like some dachsie action to me. More rayz and hugs to both of you. Rena and the girls
