Right after this pic, on July 4th weekend, Leroy was stung repeatedly inside his mouth by yellow-jackets.

Not knowing that he had multiple stings I treated him with benadryl but he started getting really sick.

I layed with him in my arms all afternoon as he continually screamed his head off.

We went to the Emergency vet where he was treated with steroids and antihistamines until well after midnight. We brought him home that night and took him back the next day for more treatment. He was bruised with vascularitis from his collar bone to his flanks, unbelievable.

I have never seen an animal suffer so. I held him for 5 days, it took a week for him to start improving, 2 weeks to become somewhat normal. He was the most pathetic little baby I have ever seen, breaking my heart.
