Thanks, Nina - I guess my main problem is that - I don't really trust my vets 100% -- don't get me wrong - I have great vets and I really like them - but they won't weigh the risks and benefits of situations in a way I do.. as you know, I am way too "cautious" and "paranoid" about everything...when someone says it's "safe".. I don't really believe it.. if it's anything that you shouldn't give to human baby, then, I don't want to give to my babies unless I absolutely have to ....
When I gave deworming medicine to Jasmine, she acted differently the whole night.. she did not want to move.. and of course, I freaked out...and the vet told me that it was safe... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nina Sent: Thursday, October 20, 2005 1:44 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Should I spay Ginger? Oh Hideyo, of course you want what's best for Ginger! No one would ever question that. You can't spay her right now anyway. Do your best to relax, take long breaths in and out. Follow your intuition about what you think is best for her. Speak to your vet about ways to limit the risks of surgery. Ask for guidance before you go to bed at night. Sometimes it's so hard being responsible for all the decisions we have to make on behalf of our sweet innocent angels. There are risks no matter what we do. Have faith in yourself and in Ginger. You'll get an answer.
