Thx, everyone. Julio has a congenital heart condition called reverse PDA. His heart doesn't pump correctly and backs up causing sludge. There is a medication that can control it but the disease shortens his life span to 2 to 5 yrs. limited activity. Oh, how he loves to play. I don't know what to do. I have fallen so deeply in love in just three months, but will it be unbearably stressful having a dog you know doesn't have much time - knowing I'm going to lose him? What should I do? I'm devastated. |
