Prayers For Ivy Options

[Nemo's Mommy]

Please say prayers for my little kitty Ivy. She went into congestive heart failure late Friday afternoon. They gave her a shot of lasix and some pills for her to take with me.

I didn't think this would happen so soon. I have been monitoring her heart condition and she takes meds and supplements daily. I just lost my kitty Ren to to heart disease (HCM) in August '08, which makes this even more painful.

Ivy is only 3 years old. I have an echocardiogram scheduled for Tuesday morning, I will know more on her heart condition then. But please, please, please say a prayer for Ivy and sending healing/positive thoughts her way. I know there is hope, I know cats can live several years after this happens. Without hope, I would fall apart.

Thank you, Thank you for any prayers, healing thoughts, you can send to my little girl.

Thank you Beth so much for sending your prayers and thoughts for my Ivy. She is just the sweetest little thing. You're right, miracles do happen and I believe in Ivy. She is a strong and very determined little girl. She is my little sunshine.

Thanks again, and my Ivy thanks you too! May positive energy surround her tonight.

Hugs~

She is a strong and very determined little girl. She is my little sunshine.

About 5 months after Goliath passed away, we discovered a tumor in my Gidget's face, right below her ear. Since she had a cancerous tumor (grade 3) removed the previous summer from her tail, of course we got plenty worried. The vet had told us that if it was the same type of cancer, that this would not be good. Before this occurred, much of the deep pain I had been feeling as a result of Goliath passing away had subsided. The thought of Gidget passing away terrified me.... and much of my unresolved grief about Goliath came right to the surface. That deep thud and dread made my heart pound so hard with anxiety that I could barely stand it until we finally got the results we were all praying for. I couldn't have dealt with losing Gidget as I had barely survived the roller coaster of emotions that about killed me when Goliath left this world.

Gidget has always been a fighter and been through more than her share of troubles all of her life. It seems each time something goes wrong with her.........angels stand near by and protect her. Each day I spend with her, I give thanks because I don't know when something else may happen. There may not be a tomorrow, so I am going to love her with everything I have in me like mad today!

Praying for you and your little sunshine girl. May each and every day you have together be full of happiness and joy.

Love and hugs from my heart to yours,
Beth

I couldn't have put it better. This is exactly what is happening to me. Because I lost Zorro and then a month and 1/2 later lost Ren, my fear of losing another is so great and overpowering it terrifies me. When you said, the deep thud and dread, and anxiety, that's EXACTLY how my heart feels (and definitely how it was feeling last night). The fear is like a fist closing in over my heart, and then I feel like I can't even breathe, or speak, or move. It's so hard to control. I'm actually pretty emotionally exhausted tonight.

I think my angel babies did watch over Ivy (and Nubis!) today, and always will. I think the positive healing thoughts and prayers really made a difference in Ivy. I am in such a better place tonight than I was last night.

I am sure that had to be so scary when that happened to Gidget so soon after losing Goliath. I am so glad she is doing well now, and I am sure Goliath watches over her, too! And you are so right, we have to be grateful for every single day we have with them.

Thank you so much for you kind words, they are comforting.

Hi Nemos's Mommy,

First let me tell you I am elated to hear that Ivy is doing well. I love it when I come here and read some happy news. Now that clutch catching hold on your heart can relax awhile. Looks like Ivy really is the determined kind of girl you said she was. I'll continue to keep you and Ivy in my thoughts and prayers.

May the sun that shines in your heart be yours forever.


Sendiing loving hugs to both of you!
Beth
