Now that you guys are talking about all the $$$$$$$$$ it costs for what you've gone through, I know it's no one's business, but I'm sure we've all wondered what your expences have been so far.
You have done so much for quite a while now, and it has to be a lot.
My little Mariposa, that died in June, at 5 years old, suffered from severe collapsed trachia since she was 1. I have saved all her paperwork, but have never taken the time to add up the $$, which I will do sometime. I KNOW it has to be in the thousands.
My little "Angel Baby" that has CP, has had a lot of doctoring also, but nothing compared to Mari.
Now that I have read your posts, I am wondering about acupuncture for Angel. Her right front leg has always been weak and curled, but over the last year, it has gotten into a tight curl and is almost hard to open up. I do open it up and massage it daily, but she is basically 3 legged at this point, and she has a hard time walking with those little back legs. It frightens me, thinking, in time she might not be able to walk at all, then it will be the end of her. Maybe Acupuncture could help. I'll try anything at this point. She is such a sweet little cuddler, has a great personality, but just can't move very well. She is just a little 2# thing, so she doesn't have anything to fall back on. I love her so.
OK, here I am going on and on...sorry...
