So basically they just handed me a death sentence for my princess, my pride and joy.... oh god, pleaseplease let it be just a bad bad dream!!!
i'm just struggling for fords right now. My brain is numb. Can't say much.
The only thing I can think of and hope for is a second opinion, by my own vet that I have respected and trusted for years and years. I'm going to see missy in the hospital right after work (they said it's ok to see her now) and then srtaight to my vet.

Keep us updated...I feel for you. I dread the day that I have to be in your shoes.
