Joey is @ 3...he came to us as a stray in 2004. He is not vomiting or anything, but she is saying that this DIC is secondary to a tumor somewhere in his body...all his other blood work was good except the platelets.Originally Posted by Shorty14788
How old is your baby? Is there any chance he could have gotten into anything that would be affecting his clotting? (rat poison, asprin, etc)
LOTS AND LOTS of prayers and vibes coming your way.... I hope he pulls through all of this.

They are going to test the coagulation a few more times the last one being at midnight, she said if she calls us back it's bad news. They may also give him a blood transfusion. Thanks for your prayers, he's really going to need them
