Thank you you guys!
I'll show them to her tomorrow. Blow her mind.
She's a remarkable woman and not just because she's my mother.
Well I've paid the ransom and Trip (the hostage) has been freed! Thinner and still very uncoordinated but circulating the back yard refreshing his markings through out. All this in spite of being launched against my PU's dash, due to a sudden stop (miserable flashing left turn arrow!!!).
His head is still on a ~60deg tilt, and the vet still has no idea what brought all this on or what to expect going forward. Even consulting with multiple neuro-vets his symptoms are leaving all of them baffled.
So, 2 bags of pills, a clumsy twisted hound, a $600 bill, and a confused look is what I left with.
But, through it all, he's home so the house is on 'Spoil Trip Alert' for a while.
Again Thanks to all you fine folks for your good wishes and support. Greatly Appreciated!!!
Yeah, I was really expecting much. closer to $1K. So, it was only a minor case of sticker shock.
Is it too late for a GoFundMe?
Such wonderful news! So glad Trip is home and back on the job again.
My husband once accidentally fed El Whacko some spicey food. I thought he was dying. That trip to the vet, lasted about an hour and a half, cost $1,000. Saved his life, so money well spent, but I've never forgiven my husband.
That's how Trip came up at the dentist's. I was talking dogs to the tech when he came in. He said he'd had a three year old chocolate lab that had started limping. He spent $6,000 tying to get the problem diagnosed through UC Davis. Turned out it was untreatable cancer on/near the spine. They stuck with the dog trying to balance what was right for the dog and not let selfishness get into the picture. That's when I knew I'd finally found a new dentist I could trust. He will be greatly pleased to hear of Trip's return home. They really want a new dog but feel it's still too soon.
Oh, I forgot Dinger won too! Although I know I mentioned it when it happened. More for the learning (and waiting) group!
Way to go Dinger!
Stupid computer, know there's some odd typos in here but can't find them.
Yesterday, an old friend, best friend's husband, went to the hospital not feeling well. By early evening his wife was told he was too ill for the hospital to treat there and he would he be transferred to another hospital. In the middle of the night, he was flown to UC Davis (human, not animal division) in serious/critical condition. This morning my husband's alarm went off at 5am, not 7am like it was supposed to. Got up, took a morning medication that makes it impossible to go back to sleep, and then Dumb Cluck tells me it's 5am. Woohoo, three hours of sleep.
On the way to the airport, I'd had it. I said I wanted a cigarette. It sort of just came out. I don't even remember the last time it'd crossed my mind to have one but think it as over a year ago. Got to the airport, two hours early
w00t
, smelled a cigarette and that was that. Yuck. Odd how the old urges suddenly take root again out of habit or ...? I quit over 2.5 years ago and it just popped back under stress. Didn't work.
I love vaping and I ain't never going back to smoking.
The old friend's/neighbor's prognosis is looking much better tonight after emergency surgery.
As far as I know, he still smokes, and hides it from everybody, including his wife.
Standing by to help, but man is it frustrating. We all know you can't force someone to quit. Wife, parents, children, grandchildren, pets, why can't they reach out to quit? And people wonder why I hate BT.
