Good news....or as good as it can be now.

I'm going to be picking up little Ivan from the froggie hospital this afternoon, around 4. I talked to his doctor twice this morning and she tells me that he does have a blockage in his digestive tract, but she doesn't think it's in his stomach. She thinks it is in his colon now, which means that there is a strong possibility that he may pass/poop it, eventually. She doesn't think that he's in a lot of pain, but he is probably having some definite discomfort. She will be giving me some anti inflammatory medication for that, along with some topical antibiotics for Ivan. Even better news is that Ivan is not really doing any mouth breathing now, so maybe any potential respiratory complications are not anything to worry about anymore.

The doctor instructed me to set up the little frog house for Ivan to stay in, until he passes/poops the problem out. I'm going to be busy this afternoon doing just that and getting it nice and comfy for him to come home to. I'm going to be setting it up right beside the big frog house so that Ivan and Myra will be able to see each other. I plan to put Ivan in the big frog house with Myra when he first returns, so they can see each other and Myra will know that Ivan is back home and all right. Ivan will also be able to see Myra and visit with her a bit. I think that might lift his spirits, too, and if he wants to nap on her back, well, that'd be just fine, too. Bottom line is, Ivan will, undoubtedly, feel better when he gets home to his Myra and his loving, devoted Dad.

I will feel much better having him home, too, and at this point, we'll just hope and pray that Ivan can pass/poop his problem out and that he'll be just fine soon.

I have been absolutely worried out of my mind about Ivan, all during these holidays. I have prayed and prayed that G-d, the Great Healer, will step in and make my little fellow all better. You all have been such a bastian of support and love, too. I so appreciate everyone here and all of the support, prayers and healing light given to both Ivan and myself. This is why you all are my chosen family and are so very dear to me. Thank you all again, for being there.....for everything.

Ivan, Myra and I are so very thankful.
