Thor has a diagnosis

Update posted by Laura Breen

Finally we know what has been making Thor so unwell, he has two conditions, both primary hyperparathyroidism and an Immune disorder attacking his blood platelets. We are all very relieved as it could have been so much worse.

He is on treatment for the immune disorder and will be assessed on Monday to see if he is well enough for an operation on his parathyroid. After the operation Thor will stay in the veterinary hospital a while with all the vets and nurses he made friends with on his last little visit.

The wonderful news is that while he will need veterinary care short term post op, the long term prognosis is very good and he should be a healthy happy dog again soon.

My estimate of how much more we needed when I set this up was pretty spot on, It's £2,000 for his operation, then around £150 a day to have his little holiday at the vets, plus blood tests and medication. All of the Thor fund raisers are doing really well with the raffle having sold 150 tickets in only 4 days. I am off to face paint at events for a little extra Thor money and amazing people keep turning up with donations! The Thor fund is growing in many ways and I have every faith that we can do this X

A huge thank you to all, Laura X
