My vet is actually orthopedic surgery and regenerative medicine, but I think they may feel Beau is too old for surgery. I will see in two weeks if he hasn't improved. He already has swallowing/breathing issues to which they did not recommend surgery and now dr. Myers thinks that might be related, and he's on thyroid medication.
I've lost 3 in the last 2 years as well. Quattro, we raised from birth The Sibling of Teddy and Robin. He had throat cancer which was inoperable but when they did the biopsy he couldn't heal or breathe and we had to put him down because of that. I felt like we could have had him a year or longer if we hadn't let them continue testing. So I'm very conflicted about making there in times worse. Instead of loving him through the end I feel like we tortured and terrified him. |
