Need Prayers for my Fritz

I know many of my bloggy friends have pets out there, even Schnauzers. So I know that when our pets are sick it is like one of your kids being ill.

Last night, Fritz came strolling in the living room as usual to bed down for our nightly routine of getting all comfy in the recliner, but I noticed he had his head hanging down and walking like he was off balance. He then proceeded to relieve himself of everything! (Which he never does in the house!)

Then he just went to the floor. Of course, I am now freaking out.

Between my sweet hubby and I, we cleaned up all messes and proceeded to see what was going on with my Fritzy. He was very lethargic and seemed dizzy when he tried to get up. I went to the bedroom to fix his bed and carry him to it. I no more had him bedded down than he got up walked into the kitchen and fell flat on his face (tile floor). He just laid there and wouldn't get up. We tried a couple of things that I had read about and heard from friends and family that have experienced similiar things with their pets. Tsp. of honey, dry toast, etc.

He slept through the night with no more episodes, but when the alarm went off at 5:45 and he didn't run to follow his daddy out the door to get the morning paper, I knew something was definitely wrong.

So off to the vet we went!

They took blood and gave him an exam. His liver enzymes came back out of the roof. He said normal range is between 50-200, his were 1,000!!!

Vet said it could be 1 of 3 things:

• 
  
  got into poison
• 
  
  ate some medicines, like blood pressure or cold meds
• 
  
  or liver cancer

So, I have told you all this to ask you all to please pray that my Fritzy gets better soon and believe with me that he doesn't have the "C" word! AMEN!?

He will be taking 2 meds to try to combat what is going on with him for the next 2 weeks, then back to the vet we go.

Fritz is 12 years old this month. We have had him since he was 6 weeks old. My kids tell me I treat him better than I did them growing up. WHATEVER!
