alex has been seen by these vets for 9 years. they've checked him out after his numerous seizures and the vet could see by his head & body movements and staggery gait that he is having neurological changes. he cannot locate his hind feet when his toes were turned under for walking. she did offer to send him to a vet neuro for evaluation and a workup including an mri, but i won't put him through that. he'd have to be sedated, and i cannot see to put him through that with the newly discovered heart murmur and pancreatitis.
i am so sad. without any doubt, he has been one of the biggest joys of my life. as long as he is comfortable and eating he can have anything he wants, except for the kitty litter pan. i am so sad

I am so sorry to read this news, Joyce. Poor Alex and poor you! He doesn't understand what is happening but you know what is most likely coming. Will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

I'm at a lose for words. My heart is breaking for you. How wise not to put Alex under more stress with additional tests. I pray that he remains happy and safe in your loving arms. Gentle hugs and kisses for both of you.

**pitc9** · 07-14-2006, 07:49 AM

Many, many hugs and prayers for you both!
We are all here for you!!!

I have read through the entire story again. , anxiously hoping for a better outcome.

I tend to agree with the "no-additional testing" for Alex. This would only add insult to injury.

I pray that your steadfast devotion to him will be rewarding. I feel so bad for you

, as, I've been in your shoes so often.

Oh Joyce, me heart aches for you. Yous will be in my thoughts & prayers and many many {{{hugs}}} for you both.

I've tried to keep up with your posts about Alex and I'm so sorry to hear that he's not better, but worse

I had such hope that he would rebound and be a-ok in no time, but it seems this is not the case.
I'll be keeping the both of you in my prayers.

Many (((HUGS)))
Anna
