For anybody who does not think I am doing everything in my power for Colby, I would just like to tell you I am doing everything possible for him. I even got a third vet involved today with his care. They have all said the same thing. If they were me they would see how the steroids do before rushing to spend what could be a substantial amount of money spent on testing just to find out what I have already been told. They also said they agree with the diagnosis and even if I pay for the MRI and get a definitive diagnosis there is nothing they can do, it is untreatable. They said that I was doing the right thing by waiting to see how he does on the steroids. Medical care is of the utmost important in my house, but so is listening to the doctors. If I could not afford a test for my daughter, but was treating her the best way I knew how and listening to the doctors would you tell me to get rid of her too? I am not a confrontational person, and I would usually not say anything, and I know you may mean well, but making me sound like I do not care about him and I am just watching him suffer could not be further from the truth. These puppies are not just dogs to us they are a part of the family, and yes me and my husband both have gone without to take care of our kids and our pups first. So please don't judge what you do not know. |
