New Heartbreak

gramaroo Apr 28, 2009 05:26 PM

Just returned from the vet with S'shadow. his leg problem has not resolved itself and on Thursday morning he goes in for mega amounts of xrays....the vets tried to be reassurring but you know in your heart, when they will not look you in the eye, that they suspect the worse case scenario. The list I was given included, Lymes Disease, Erlichiosis, a bunch of things with just initials that they said could only be looked for under heavy anstethics because it was so painful, subluxation of the knee joint and of course the big "C" Osteo...when they said this to me I could hardly breathe...Shad is not even three...so please, on Thursday morning say a little extra prayer for the Shadman...and his Mom whose heart is hurting more than I can even describe at this moment...BTW, I had Bill in the ER yesterday all day and the news there is just as grim but another time....thanks for your prayers H

After talking with you last night I know just how scared and worried you are. You know that prayers are coming from Ohio for your Shad. As for Bill... did you forget to mention just how serious it was? On going prayers for the whole family.

Dogs and cats come into our lives, and too quickly go leaving pawprints on our hearts, and we will never be quite the same again.
