Do you know how to meditate C? That could help clear the mind. There is a counting meditation technique... breath in, count to 7, hold for count to 7, breath out slowly, count to 7; do over and over for 5-10 minutes. It gets easier as you do it. Or if you can't count to 7, count to 5 for inhale and exhale.From: "ILIKE TREES" <wherearetheangels@...>bird mites Sent: Saturday, July 21, 2012 9:32:47 AMSubject: Re: hollyHolly got home on steroids,but was still very illSo told vet about mortierella fungus.

Good C. I think it saved us to do meditation. We belong to a meditation group that meets every week and I think it saved us through most of this mess. I have gotten some counseling too through the worst, but the counselor had a hard time understanding what my worries were about possibly contaminating the chair I was sitting on... that was 4 years ago. It is so horrific and we start to worry about others... everyone goes through that.

Its because her spleen enlarged

Lymph nodes enlarged

Body packing in

Red white cells so low n platelets that vet said she wud probably die if not

given steroids

Now I hope I wont have a battle to keep her on the baytril and doxycycline

I think if she survives they will give doxy for a month only

But anythin I have read said two months at least for co infections dog

Day at a time though as still v poorly

I dont believe they wud have given doxy if I hadnt been able to explain about

the fungus

Thanks again aa xx
