    Quick Mystic update

    It been a few days since he went in for his recheck. It was not too good.... and I kind of had a minor breakdown. I can't keep on this rollercoaster for much longer. It affecting my entire life.

    Anyway, on to what the vet said: He's still a sick little boy. It concerns her very much because he should be 100% by now. Another two weeks of antibiotics and meds. His penis is still bruised. He has to gain weight because he lost a pound. She has no idea why he's losing weight and it concerns her. She said two weeks and we'll recheck him again. then based on running complete panels we'll see what course of action we need to take.... which meds to try, etc.

    I couldn't bear to post the bad-ish news. I am falling apart over this whole situation. I worry for him. I worry about how I'm going to catch up financially; the costs keep coming. I was ok with the $1000, because I'll have that by December, but we're $500 over it and I'm in such another world that I'm accumulating additional bills due to stupidity and not paying attention (uh, my first parking ticket EVER)

    Many many prayers for you and Mystic. Your vet is sure not giving up!

    Would she be open to a second opinion? I am sure she wants to solve this as much as you do.

    Many prayers and healing energies for Mystic and you, Kim. We are so sorry you are going through all this. Let's hope this new round of meds and antibiotics will help. Getting a second opinion sounds like a good idea, too.

    More prayers for you and Mystic.
    Can anyone in your familyl help with the vet bills (instead of Christmas presents?)

    Maybe no kid under 10 gets presents this year?
    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.

    I'm so, so sorry to read that your beloved Mystic is still not well. The second opinion is a good idea; is there an internist near you? Lisa's idea of money for his bill's instead of Christmas gifts is a good one. And I understand there's a site or organization online called "chipin" where you could start a fund and people could "chip in" whatever amount they could. I did something similar when Shadow broke his leg, and it was quite a help.

    Prayers coming for you and Mystic, that he'll be restored to health.

    I'm praying for you and Mystic. Just ask for help with the vet bill this year instead of Christmas presents. That sounds like the best plan.

    Nobody is getting gifts. Mom is giving us "trinket gifts" more like stocking stuffers just so we have something to open. Other than that, nobody in our family is giving or receiving gifts. Nobody has money this year.

    I will start making bonus by the end of December, but I need the money now. Thank God my vet is awesome and patient. They just expect payment at the counter for every subsequent visit. I am able to pay off the big bill, but not the weekly visits. I paid $80 on friday, and I need to pay who knows how much tomorrow for a 20 pound bag of food.
