Elaine, you are just sick with worry. When Sophie was sick, I spent thousands to keep her alive. Charlie's dental bills in the last month alone were over $2,000. I don't regret the money that was spent on Sophie because she gave me so many years of love and companionship. Sweet Charlie had a tough life, and his teeth were neglected. He needs to be well even though his age is 10.
It does take you back when you are given a quote but remember these are speciality procedures. Medicine is "big business" and flows into the vet world also. However, there are no guarantees except that you will keep trying until all means are exhausted.
I think of you and send you quiet thoughts to help you. Warmly, Deborah |
