Back from Vet

We called the vet and they had us come right away, moving our 6:15pm appointment up to 3pm, we really did not think he would make it all the way to 6pm without getting some fluids into him and we just couldn't stand seeing him like he was. His breathing was getting labored and noisy, every breath with a grunt/groan of pain. We stayed out in parking lot and they gave us 3 days worth of fluids and meds and instructions on how to do the IV ourselves ... aaahhgggg.... We now have everything that we need to treat him ourselves with subcutaneous fluid therapy. I'm pretty sure that he is feeling better and I know that I am.
