I have confidence in the fact that IF there is a cure for Cody she will find it, if she cannot I know she will recommend me to a specialist, if she does not have the proper equipment, she will recommend where to go. If she flat out tells me she cannot do anymore for cody I will then ask her for a specialist, or find one on my own..... I actually asked about vet school out of curiosity, kinda confused why a person would choose a place where ppl are JUST learning over a certified vet. I was not considering using one for Cody’s condition, and to be quite honest I didn’t even know about specialist until I posted this thread and received replies. My heart is telling me Cody will never be cured, and not because of my vet not having the knowledge, it’s because Cody has this illness 17 months. Now KNOWING there are specialist out there has given me hope. But I will not leave my vet unless she tells me there is nothing that can be done for Cody. But I do thank you for your suggestion.

IF a Vet of mine was think that way, I would be looking for a new a Vet, just the same way I would if my own Dr. felt that way. You as a voice for your baby have the right to ask to see a specialist. My Vet's would have already suggested a specialist to me. I have great specialist here where I live and if need be I would go to the Vet School, Texas A&M if had to.
