When your four-legged pal gets sick and pants and throws up and throws up somemore and it's a bloody mess and the Doc says it's the toll from daily pain pills over the years and we have to cut the dosage by half and also, here's something to help with the bleeding in her stomach--- it's then you remember the trips to the Dr. with three little kids. When they're better, the relief is the same and now the kids are grown and they worry about their own kids and so here you are almost weak with relief that she wasn't given a much more serious tolling of bells and that the Dr wrote instructions on a tongue depressor, not an irrelevent piece of paper. he does it for his Mom and he did it for Roxie and me. Such a caring human being. |

| Kathy, I'm so glad for you; what a relief to know your "four-legged pal" can be helped. Hugs for both of you. ((((Kathy and Roxie))))) |

| KJ, I would be willing to bet that you have spent more time at the vets than any of us. You have a heart as big as Texas. Glad Roxie will be around awhile longer. Hugs (((Roxie)) |

| Glad Roxie found relief. I am so happy to hear about a kind and caring vet, you are fortunate. Our local vet is the same way, he is not all that high-tech, state of the art type, but he truly cares for his clients. Even when it comes to the final good bye, he is kind and caring, we love him! |

| Seems Roxie and I had the same problem, your vet was faster in finding it. Had to switch meds for my back problem. Did Roxie get a different pain pill? Hope she is much better. |

| Thank you, my friends for your supportive words----you make me feel stronger. When the vet said she'd be OK, my knees really did go weak! I'll have to start giving her the pain meds every OTHER day now, instead of daily, since that's what's now causing the bleeding. That's going to be rough for Rox---but, it's better than this other trauma she just went through! He's given her something I have to give her an hour BEFORE she eats, OR two hours AFTER she eats. That'll take some getting used to----I'm asking my Angels for extra help in remembering! I have to put the Pepcid right in front of my eyes to remember to put THAT in her food, as it is!!! I'm just so grateful he figured it out for us. Thank you again for your love and support! |
