    More LES here. I am so sorry.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Oh, I am so sorry. LES here too. Dear, sweet, beloved, cherished Scooter.

    If your mother-in-law won't help, I will see if I can chip in something too towards the cremation so you can have his ashes.

    Hugs to you, gentle pets to Scooter.

    I guess...a second opinion won't help? I mean...is he sick with anything in particular, or just worn out at a fairly early age?

    When we tested everything early December, his liver results were bad. At that point, they said hopefully ScooterBug would respond to the antibiotics but they feared it was much worse... either a tumor, fatty liver disease, or cancer. I just didn't have the funds for an ultrasound.

    He's so skinny and has such a hard time walking around. He comes to me and just taps me for me to pick him up. I can see the ridges of his spine and hip bones. He's just wasting away.

    I've spent today in tears. Hubby is on the phone now with his folks.

    I will miss you forever, my sweet Scooter Bug. You were my best friend. 9/21/1995 - 1/23/2010
    Goodbye, Oreo. Gone too soon. 4/2003 - 9/12/2011.
    Farewell & Godspeed, sweet Jadie Francine. You took a piece of my heart with you. 11/2002 - 8/8/2016

    I will find a way to contribute also. I am so very sorry to read this sad news.

    Time helps the sadness subside, but the memories remain forever.

    LES I am so so sorry. I was COMPLETELY in the same place less than a week ago. I wouldn't want that hurt on anyone. The ER wouldn't take payments so I couldn't get Hoobbes' ashes. I do hope your MIL can help. There is NOTHING worse than seeing them suffer. Gentle hugs to you. I know exactly how you feel.

    Oh I'm so sorry. It's still fresh for me so I know exactly how painful it is for you right now. Prayers are going up right now that you will have some peace and that your MIL will help w/the vet bill.
    Blessings,
    Mary
