We just talked to the vet a little while ago.
Rusty's condition has gone downhill over the last few hours. His survival chances have dropped again.
The vet told me his bloodwork is good but does show an elevated white blood cell count indicating a possible infection.
He is now on additional antibiotics but no improvement has been noted as of right now.
Our Internet connection has also been very sketchy today, but I will try and post another update later today or tomorrow morning.
Thank you all for the prayers. Our boy really needs them right now.
