Lyndsy, this is an excellent BUT long article on IMHA:

IMHA: Diagnosing and treating a complex disease - Veterinary Medicine

Isn't Albert really young? This is so heartbreaking. I am praying he pulls through like the little champ he is.

if he responds well to his treatment and needs monthly medication i see no reason why he cant live a full and normal life this is something to discuss with your vets. Naturally as mummies we will always worry about our fluffs but dogs have a way of dealing with things way better than us i doubt it would even phase him!!!Stay positive and optomistic!

Just got on and saw this....

Will pray for Albert, and pray his body accepts the treatment.

Lyndsy, I'm just seeing this...I' so sorry you have this serious concern with your precious little Albert!! The power of prayer has worked wonders so keep the faith!!
I think all of wish we couls just surround you with big hugs!! since we can't do it physically.. we will do it 'virtually" ..

I know it is all so very scarey right now and prayers certainly going out that there is no 'rejection'. Try to look to where the meds work and look to where you baby will be home and maintained well on the meds!

When my Missy was dx with a very aggressive cancer ( bladder) the prognosis was dire...no matter what choice of treatment we did for her. HOWEVER!! I learned statistics are simply that... statistics.. not carved in stone. My baby girl beat the odds and amazed even the 'experts'!
I also learned to yes, learn all you can BUT also try to take it one day at a time.... look to 'today' to cope with... don't worry about 'tomorrow' until tomorrow comes. Will be praying you'll have LOADS!!!and LOADS!! of 'tomorrows' with you Albert!!!

Sending prayers to you and Albert, so sorry you are having to go through this. Praying that the meds. work.

**Lynzodolly** · 12-05-2012, 04:40 PM

Thank you all so much for your advice .. He's only 5 months old eikssa thanks Sami I've just read it .. It's all so much to take in .. I'm just hoping the next few days go well and he copes well the specialist said he is doing well with his blood transfusion .. And he was giving the nurses little licks on their hands

))) ... The vet we use in Ayr was crying when he was diagnosed ! ... Thy were so good with him I will have to take them flowers in .. I called the breeder and she said bring him here I will put him to sleep and just give you a new puppy I have recently fund out she breeds 18 different breeds of dog all year round

I also just read all of these posts and want to let you know that I will pray for your little Albert that the Blood Transfusions take affect and send positive thoughts that he will come through this. Wish we were all closer by so that we could be with you during this stressful time. Thoughts and prayers will continue for you both.
