Then, a second round of more detailed testing shows no kidney problems, but an enlarged liver...so possible cushing's disease. I have been researching anything I can find and feel so helpless. We have an abdominal ultrasound scheduled for him on tuesday afternoon and I am worried sick.

Just as I sit here and think about it, my eyes well up with tears and I cannot imagine my poor little angel having to go through this. Anyone here have any experience with this??? I would love to hear some encouraging news...
Hello, sorry to hear the bittersweet news about your little angel and please don't beat your self up. I did the same thing when my 10 year old brussel griffon x male died of a heart attack when going to the vet. to have his teeth clean the next day.One second he was drinking his water and the next minute he keeled over and was gone. So, no matter how well one prepares for the unexpected, when it happens it is good to have loving people to support you and give you peace. Will be praying.
