Guest jessicaksu125 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 The vet wants to do some additional diagnostics tomorrow (one of their machines is being fixed today.) She was about the same... I'm really scared to have to draw that line in the sand... How much is too much to spend on an old dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Scouts_mom Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 (edited) Will be thinking of you and sweet Lizzy tonight and tomorrow. I once had a Lizzy--like yours, she was the best dog ever. Edited May 10, 2016 by Scouts_mom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really scared to have to draw that line in the sand... How much is too much to spend on an old dog Will further testing impact the outcome? Do they think they will find a way to fix her? Will it give you answers?Good luck! You are in a tough position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jessicaksu125 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Lizzie and I had a long -- but actually good night. I couldn't sleep (after 8 years of being gently kicked to move over while sleeping, you tend to miss it.) I went to see her and she was able to stay off her IV meds for an hour and a half. She was moving around more too, she clawed at her blanket to make her dog nest which was very encouraging! I have opted for comfort care. There is a surgery that could possibly help her but given the costs, her age and the risks... it's not the right choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
