Bryants Road to Recovery

Hi everyone, as many of you know from my facebook page that my little boy got hit by a car yesterday afternoon. We took him to the Vet in Houlton yesterday as soon as it happened and he had a minor collapsed lung with a pneumothorax and severe lung contusions. They had to remove air and blood from his lungs and give him lots of meds to even get him to a vet that could stay with him 24/7. We made it to MVMC in Scarborough late last night where he stayed in the ICU. I never got a call through the night which, “no news is good news” overnight. I talked to the Critical Care specialist around 11 this morning. She said he did great last night. He never once needed air to be removed his lungs and the mild lung collapse didn’t get worse so he’s on the road to recovery there. He was in lots of pain through out the night but got lots of rest and pain med injections. The one main concern is how the nursing of his lungs go throughout the day today. Those tend to get worse before they’re better which can get worse within 24-48 hours. He may need to stay another night just to be sure that he is being taken care of and watched like a hawk. He finally ate a little this morning and got oral pain meds so he’s tolerating foods well. We still aren’t out of the clear but good news.

I hate even having to ask, but if anyone is willing to help us out so we can bring him home it would be greatly appreciated. staying 2 nights is not cheap, but any penny would help tremendously. If you can’t help please just say a little prayer for my boy as that goes even further ❤️

We got this sweet boy. Thank you to anyone who helps or who even says a prayer for him. Prayer goes a long way!!

Thank you ❤️
