The economy is tough on some many people. You are very forunate to have a vet that will work with you. My vet is very reasonably priced also. I feel forunate for that also. I am very thankful because times are so tight. The holidays are tough for so many people. It's a good time to think of the true meaning of the holidays and not put a price tag on it. When you go visit, I wouldn't feel compelled to take expensive gifts. Small meaning gifts should be appreciated by anyone. So many people are now without jobs. When someone loses a job, its easy to go through your savings just to make ends meet. Dont feel bad if you can't take big expensive gifts. You will need your funds for more important things. Life goes on after Christmas. |
