A Hotdog will taste just as good as a steak!

I prefer steak to hotdogs. But, there is nothing like a hotdog grilled over an open flame, burnt almost to a crisp.......Call me crazy, but that's the way I like them.

Oh yeah, nothing like a hot dog covered with all that crispy, carcinogenic black stuff, that makes my mouth water, I think I know what we are having for supper tonite.

Sad news about Roriee. Poor dear sweet Roriee, I shall pray she can get some relief from her agonizing pain.

Just a question: this medication that she is on, does it usually work immediately? or some sort of time delay before it takes effect?

Take care

The medicine can work immediately....or even up to two weeks after the first treatment. The dilema we are faced with is her comfort level. To begin with, we are dealing with a terminal diagnosis. Then, couple that with the pain...how long do you leave her in pain while waiting for a response to a med that honestly will not cure her? IF this body cast helps and she is not screaming in pain, then we will have the luxury of time.

We could also use your prayers because being faced with a decision like that is not going to be easy for anyone.

Chicago Style Dog...Steamed bun, and all the fixin's....fries, and a beverage! My Mouth is now watering! Looks like a trip to Portillo's is in order for lunch!

Checking to see how Roriee is doing. Prayers going out for her miracle today and Randi's successful surgery.

I so hope that they can keep her out of pain long enough for the medicine to kick in.

I hope it doesn't come down to humane euthanasia; though I know there are some things worse than death and that is suffering. I watched my mother suffer before she died and I don't want that for anyone or any animal.

Still praying, hoping, and believing for a miracle for this little girl!

Yum! You know, I never realized that you are in IL. That is my home state.

I do trust that they will keep her pain free. I just hope that the treatment helps her.

Thank you Ladyjane. That's all I wanted to say after following this post for so long. Thank you and God Bless.

...Sorry I'm feeling this way, but charges of animal abuse to OP is something to be considered, this has been ongoing FOR MONTHS and what the current health conditions at hand, of this fragile pup, isn't somethign that just happens overnight....

I am just hear broken by this, i feel for what the OP is going through, herself, but let's not loose sight of why this is one of the longest threads either....

God bless this littel one and those giving her the care she needs...

You and roriee and all those involved with her care will be in my prayers, hopes, and thoughts today.

I especially will pray that this body cast will ease the wee one's pain, and that God will hold all in the palm of his hand.

A big hug (((((((( )))))))))))))

Come on now, the poor lady is in the hospital about to have surgery. I peronally believe she feels bad enough, and does not have the resources to help. Bad things happen sometimes, it is part of life. Last thing I would do is to try and charge this person with anyting. YUou thing she does not feel bad enough. Maybe I am just dense, or maybe my heart is in the wrong place. Either way, just let it go, and hope for the best for the Pup and the person.

I'll jump to the point, too. Are you nuts??

After reading all this, this is your conclusion?

Randi is today undergoing surgery for cancer and you want to pile that on her? My sense from reading these updates and all the posts from November is that maybe Randi knew intuitively that Roriee has too many problems to overcome. Maybe she, because of her love for Roriee, did what she did. She was able to have some time where she wasn't suffering and did turn back to YT with the relapse. She then did the selfless thing and placed her in the hands of rescue when it became too much.

You are unbelievable....

Ann, feel free to delete my post and whatever you else you need to do. This is totally uncalled for at this time and I won't just let it sit there unchallenged.

I felt very strongly myself. I now understand that this woman really did not understand much of what was going on with Roriee.

She did make the decision to surrender her so that she had a chance. I know how hard that was for her.

She is having surgery right now and I pray it will go well.

[shodanusmc]

Woogie, totally agree, and if you go, I go!

Let it go. Roiree was born with serious congenital conditions. Randi did nothing to cause this. Animal cruelty statutes in Georgia deal with basic care - food, water, shelter. At the present, there is no cure for GME even if Randi were a millionaire.

We need to keep our focus on praying for Roiree.
