Please reread my thread, "I am Scared".... From the beginning, two YT members, made me feel I was guilty of neglect for asking what could be happening to my Daisy. The others who responded to my thread, were very polite with their advice and not accusatory in anyway...and I thank you for your kindness. You helped me through a very scary experience.
For three hours, prior to my coming to YT, we tried to get help for Daisy. We went to three different veterinary offices, only to be turned away.
By that time, Daisy was in no way showing any signs of illness. She was acting like her normal, active, bright-eyed self. No shivering, No hiccupping, No whining, No lethargy...No signs of sickness.
We came home and my husband started calling everyone we could possibly think of to call for help or answers...I hit the internet to find possible answers an/or advice from online veterinary sites. During this frantic time, Daisy was playing with her squeaky toy, eating and wanting attention...In other words.... Acting Very Normal. We could find no one that would help a dog with no abnormal symptoms and with owner's having no way to pay for an office visit.....
At the time I did not feel I needed to go into such a detailed explanation of what we had already been doing in order to just get advice from YT members. Boy oh Boy! Was I wrong. I should have given a life history not only for Daisy but for me as well. A background check attesting to my being a responsible pet owner and having no felonies for animal abuse. LOL  Just Joking........
IF there had been questions asked, I would have gladly answered.
Jumping to negative conclusions, only showed insensitivity to a new member needing your expert advice and reassurance. Shame on you!
Daisy, having no more scary episodes, continues to be healthy and her normal spunky.....and We love her dearly........  |
I am lost as to why you continue to be defensive about your situation when you insist there is nothing to defend. LET IT GO.
My goodness, you'd think the people here flogged you given your descriptions. I HIGHLY and kindly ask that you go back and read your own thread
very carefully because I can assure you that you were in NO WAY attacked or put down, nor were inappropriate assumptions made. If you feel guilty, as you state above, that is your own doing - not anyone else's as no one can make you feel things - your reactions are your own.
Rather, you were given advice which *you* asked for here. And it was given with RESPECT. What more could one ask for?
There is absolutely no reason to say 'shame on you' in regards to this situation, or any situation in my opinion. Where does that get anyone, how does it help the matter, how does it make things better? To me, it appears you're wanting to pour fuel on some fire that truly is not there, except in your eyes.
Please let this go now, enough is enough. This thread is now closed.
