Terri,
So sorry to hear about your Mom. My father in law is also having major health problems and just went in to live in care on Monday, hopefully not longterm, but we will see. I know how hard it is when you have worries about family and your pets. I wish you and your mother the best. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
How nice of BJ to come see you! That had to help a lot. I know it has been a roller coaster ride with Miss, some days good, some not so good and it helps to have someone to talk to. I am SO fortunate that my vet and staff are so willing to listen and help.
I just sort of felt a kinship with your situation and was concerned about how things were going, since I hadn't seen anything from you in a while.
Thanks for posting back.
Take care....be well.
Mares and Miss
