Hello Michelle,
How is Lucy doing now? How terrifying to have her symptoms be so
pronounced and not be able to do anything for her for a week! I know
how difficult it is to want to do SOMETHING, and not know what the best
course is. The decisions we are forced to make for our oh so dependent
loved ones are never easy. I wish I could give you better advice, but
all I can say is listen to your intuition. Momma really does know best.
As far as Patches goes... If her teeth haven't been bothering her, I'd
probably leave them the hell alone. Too bad they can't be filed or
capped with out general anesthesia. If the dentist says he thinks they
should be pulled, I'd ask about filling/capping them instead. At any
rate, she's probably better off going through whatever procedure you
think necessary while she's healthy.
As always, I'm thinking about you and yours, praying for good health for
them and clear choices for you.
Nina
