Hi Sally,
First, I'm so sorry to hear about Tiny. What an awful shock that must
have been. I was so surprised when I lost my Jazz before her sister
Grace. Jazzy was always so much stronger and healthier, I just never
expected to lose her first.
I don't have any advice about Junior's eye problems. Thank Heavens
that's not something I've had to deal with yet. I wish I could come up
with words of comfort for what you're going through and what you've
already endured. I have a mantra that I repeat over and over: "All I
can do is all I can do". It does suck that money becomes an issue in
our babies care, but we just have to do the best we can. Sometimes even
having the money doesn't get us the result we so wish for. I firmly
believe that paying for tests and treatments is not the most important
part of our trials and tribulations, love and caring are far more
important and you have those. Your little angels are blessed with a mom
that loves them and considers their best interests. As hard as it is to
take, extending their lives is not the most important thing, making what
time they share with us as full of love, comfort and mutual joy is.
Hang in there my dear. You and yours are in my prayers,
Nina

With it being a long weekend I probably can't get back in to see the
vet until Tuesday. They did say they would refill his antibiotic. I am
hoping they are open today so I can do that. I still have the
gentmycin drops and am giving him those. He did have an ulcerated
cornea is the other eye which I assume is why he did not get the
steroid drops for that eye. It has mostly cleared up but now his good
eye is infected.
He would be blind if he lost site in this eye. He is not eating well.
Maybe he misses Tiny. They did not get along but he still might be
missing him.
I don't know how you do it. This is very draining emotionally and
financially. I can't get the best care because I cannot afford it.
I went back to the archives and I will print Bandy's treatment for the
vet to see. I have an appt for his immunoregulin shot on Friday.
Hopefully I can talk with Dr Staunton then.
