I apoligize for not writing until I got the results but ut was a bad week last week since he wasn't feeling so great to begin with and his brother Charlie was neutured last week too so I really didn't have much spare time...As I posted yesterday the Bile Acid test shows there is a definate liver disease going on and now we have to see exactly which it is... I have been spending most of my work day researching this awful problem and trying to find alterative treatments to help heal the damage that has already been done... His days are up and down one great day then one not so great day... After having a needle stuck into him 6 times Saturday because they couldn't get enough blood for the test he is not a very happy camper... He bites anyone who tries to touch him beside my daughters and me and we even have to approach him slowly... The place that we puirchased him from has asked that we send them all the bills and vet reports so I am hopeful that they may give me something towards them...The first thing they said was do you want another puppy? I was like hell no I want this one to live... Can you imagine they think you can just go and replace your child that's been with you for almost a year...Idiots...I have also been looking into meeting with a holistic vet here in Manhattan so perhaps she can help build up his immunity and recommend natural foods since I been reading so much awful stuff about Hill's Science Diet l/D & K/D which my vet recommends... So guys it is basically a wait and see for the next test results to see if it is one shunt or many then we have to decide what to do next... Next Monday the sonogram can be done unless I find somewhere not so local to get it done sooner... I already took off this Friday so I can spend more time with him since he does much better when he has a long week-end with us...he is so happy just to sit on our laps and sleep...Everytime I look into his eyes I see his saddness & pain I know he is telling me he is sick and I just can't do anything for him but make him comfy... So please keep praying for him and maybe God will bless us with a miricale... Again I am sorry for not writing more often...here is my work e-mail if any of you want to contact me when you don't hear from me...
