Russian made it through the surgery.  That's the good news.  The bad news
is that since the vet saw him 2 weeks ago, despite being on Amoxi, another
tooth became infected and had to be taken out. :(
 
Also, being on Lasix for 2 weeks removed only a little of the fluid from
around his heart.  I've talked to some people with ferrets with Aleutian
disease that developed heart problems and they said medication didn't work
for them.  So...he's still with me but for how long I don't know.
 
He's a very sleepy little boy still.  Thank you ALL for your thoughts and
prayers.  I haven't read all of them yet (and probably won't tonight), but
I will answer all of them.  I *know* this was a bigger strain on me that
it was on the ferrets.  <sigh>

Please give to Aleutian Disease research...the ferret you save may be your
own!  http://www.geocities.com/russiansmom/index.html
