[history]
My beloved dog, Daisy, is critically ill. She has Immune Mediated Hemolytic Anemia, a disorder that causes her body to attack and kill healthy red blood cells. Her blood levels are well below the normal/low range and her vet now has her in 'critical'. She will have surgery in the next 48 to remove a foreign object she ate- not sure its related to the IMHA at this point. 
Sad update:
After a valiant fight against Immune Mediated Hemolytic Anemia, Daisy succumbed to her illness this morning. While her mind and spirit were willing, her body could no longer fight. I was with her when she passed, and she passed very peacefully. She is now reunited with her feline buddy, Whammy, and is surely chasing squirrels in Heaven, as she waits for me at the Rainbow Bridge. She was the most incredible dog I've every owned. She was my best friend.
  Thank you to all who have offered their kind words and prayers during this difficult few weeks. 
Daisy: Nov. 2nd, 1998 - March 28th, 2008

    Daisy will also begin injections (at $100 a shot, three times a week) to stimulate her bone marrow to produce new red blood cells. I want to give her every chance to fight this and win, even if the vet isn't sure she'll pull through. For almost 10 years, Daisy has been there for me, through all my trials and triumphs. I couldn't even think of not being here for her now- regardless of the cost. 
Please say a prayer for my beloved Daisy.

    What a beautiful dog! I will pray for your dog. I lost my dear companion Adina in 2005. It was like someone had cut off my right arm.

    Your darling Daisy sure has all of my prayers. I know very well how hard it is to go through what is happening to you and Daisy right now, but rest assured, whatever the outcome for Daisy, know that her life with you is the best she could have had. And for that you are to be commended. Some day another one will come along that you can love and care for too. How lucky that dog will be.
