    I am so sorry to hear about Bartie. I am totally with you when you say that you don't want a biopsy. we had one done with Tigris ( who was only 13 then) but he never recovered from it as it was major surgery and he had to go one week later. He would have been more comfortable if we hadn't done it
    All the best for you and Bartie.

    Very sad news, and no correct decision to be had. I hope the time you have left, no matter the length, is precious.

    Bartie also has hyperthyroidism and high blood pressure. Thank you guys for being there for me. It means a lot. I pray that he'll go peacefully in his sleep.

    Donna, I'm so sorry to hear that! I will keep him in my thoughts... :-(

    I totally agree with you on that biopsy thing; I wouldn't go for that option either!
