Deanna, I want to personally thank you and quite a few others here, including, but not limited to Waxnrope, JustLovelyJenn, the ever kind and lovely Lady Pamela, NYCfemmebbw, Spirit Dancer, Tommi, my friend Wolfy and Jesse, Durrrrr, just to name a few....for all of the support, love, thoughts, prayers and healing energies sent to my little Ivan, Myra and myself during this horrid time that Ivan's been sick.
![]() ![]() I've never felt alone, during this entire time, thanks to you all standing stalwartly behind me, every step of the way. I thought I was going to lose Ivan, more than once, and that tends to make someone feel very alone and sad. I've felt you all, in my heart, and I've felt the strength coming through in giant waves from you all, especially during those times when I'd be standing helplessly by, watching my precious Ivan as he gasped and grimaced from pain. I don't know as I would have ever had the strength or courage...or faith....to push on and to take a chance that Ivan would pull through, but I did, and Ivan did....with YOUR help. It's funny that I can do the job I do and manage to detach myself from the emotional part of it, even when humans are concerned, yet when faced with watching the suffering of my little frog and possibly losing him, I have just turned to a puddle of tears. Ivan's just a little frog, and I've seen some people here in r/t roll their eyes and tell me "That's a $20 frog...go get another one.", but he's MY IVAN and he's got a huge personality and a strong will to fight. He wants to live and he's determined to stick it out until he's well. I feel that from him, like he's saying "Don't count me out and by G-d, don't give up on me!!". Well, we haven't and won't give up on him. I know I couldn't do this without you all behind me, sending that strength and energy. I thank you all for that, one and all. Deanna, I especially thank you for all the encouragement and support. You are such a kind and wonderful woman. I think you must be one of G-d's angels, sent down to us, that we hear about in faith circles, etc. I'm not religious, in any way, but I consider myself to be very spiritual. I have a strong distaste for organized religion, though I was raised Southern Baptist. My faith is strong, though, because after nearly 22 years in health care, I know there is a power higher than ourselves. I believe in G-d. Oh, and Ivan is resting comfortably here at home today. He's in The Big Frog House with Myra now, chilling out on the floor, behind the waterfall, sleeping. I'm leaving him alone, keeping things quiet and peaceful, and allowing him to get used to being home again. Tonight he'll be back up sitting in the waterfall, beside Myra, and everything will be right in "frogland" again. Ivan still has a blockage going on, but it looks like things are moving through a little at a time, very slowly. That's okay. I have a couple of antibiotics to give to him and I'll be having him soak in a nice warm calcium bath in the evenings. I'm going to make sure that little guy has the very best of care and the very best chance possible to survive this the rest of the way. More than anything, he's going to know that he is loved and supported by not only his dad, but by many, many friendly supporters who are cheering him on!! ![]() ![]() ![]() Thank you all so much. ![]() ~Theo~ ![]()

![]() I leave this candle for faith... for hope... for the strength of love.
I leave my faith in this light that love never fades. I leave my hope in this light that love is no longer taken for granted. I leave my strength in this light that love rebuilds. When faith cries, when hope seems lost, when my strength fades to black.... When I swear I can't go on, or scream out of spite, and cry because I am dying inside- Know that I do love, and know that love does matter. ![]()

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~ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()
