Aerosmom Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 I hope that some day we can open Health and Medical without any osteo diagnoses. I'm so sorry that you are faced with an osteo diagnosis for your Bodie. I hope you have caught it early enough to have lots of time with your sweet boy.

Guest Bodie Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Thanks to each and every one of you for your support and prayers. It has helped me more than you can know. To answer some of the posts: I definitely intend to overnight the X-rays to Dr. Couto and ask the radiology staff to look at them. If Dr. Couto will see Bodie, I will take Bodie to Ohio as soon as I can get an appt. Trevgray gave me some hope with the thought that perhaps his staph infection has localized in the bone and it may not be osteo. That would also be very serious, but perhaps not as fatal as osteo. I am hoping Dr. Couto can help Bodie, but if not, I will keep him on pain medication and hope that we may have a few months together before his quality of life declines and I must send him to the bridge. Bodie has stayed by my side and helped me through some very difficult times in my life. Now it is my turn to stand by his side and love and support him every way I know how.

Guest Lala Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 I so sorry. I hope Dr. Couto can help out in some way. Lilah received acupuncture once a week and it did seem to help. Perhaps there is someone near you who can offer this service? My thoughts are with you. Circle of Grey can be very supportive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
