Our vet felt guilty, he send in a check to the hospital in Kole's memory.
Omgosh I am sooooooo sorry to hear that After the last vet appointment (we went to 4 and still no diagnosis) my husband and I agreed we needed to see a specialist. My husband said even if they took x-rays he didn't feel confident they would know what was wrong. At that point we have spent over $500 on visits.

I wanted people to make sure they know the symptoms. I had absolutely no idea what was wrong with him but I knew it was something major.

Again I am so sorry about your little one. My heart goes out to you.
