My typical comments on situations that look bad: see if you can find an alternative vet. Mine has increased the quality of life for four of my wonderful friends and the new kittens, Copper and Thomas, see one just to make sure they are getting everything they need (they came from a pine thicket and very questionable background healthwise. Obviously their mothers cared a lot for them because they were brought behind my Mom's home where they would be found and given everything.) Next, do not dwell on what may be. None of us are guaranteed a minute of life. The goal, IMO, is to have the highest quality of life possible with all the love possible.
Blessings to you and your Mickey. You are both blessed to have each other. On Oct 21, 2008, at 2:50 PM, Sharyl wrote: > Vicky, I'm sorry about the dx.
