(hugs)<BR/><BR/>betty,<BR/>well it sounds like you have had your share of health issues with the furkids. My husband and I always say that we get sent the *special needs* for some reason, still trying to figure that one out, but we do what we need to do. <BR/><BR/>Jarie has lifelong health issues, and we have to be on top of them, especially the bleeding, but anything for our baby.:)Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06089318003200939942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1867332743744451111.post-68124130608965406632008-09-16T14:06:00.000-07:002008-09-16T14:06:00.000-07:00You are awesome!

Our second rescue had congestive heart failure for four years...lots of meds and tests, but we had him about 3 1/2 years longer than expected.<BR/><BR/>Our current three rescues seem to be in good health overall...fingers crossed! <BR/><BR/>Our hearts go out to you for your good works.
