The bike can wait and you will get it soon. Take care and hope everything goes ok next week.angelfish24https://www.blogger.com/profile/13444378218098178416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488136.post-5046911213247033602007-01-28T08:00:00.000-07:002007-01-28T08:00:00.000-07:00I'm soo sorry about Rocco.

I hope Rocco pulls through. When a pet is a part of the family that much, it is very hard to lose them, so of course you want to do all you can do to keep them healthy. As you know, you can always get another bike.Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12302710072433158197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488136.post-92052854137745778752007-01-28T07:04:00.000-07:002007-01-28T07:04:00.000-07:00I am not going to suggest that you do something di...I am not going to suggest that you do something different with the current situation, but I will tell you what helped us..<br /><br />After a few scares like you are facing now, we sat down and thought threw a variety of situations and made a decision tree. That way, next time, we could look back and use that at least as a starting point.<br /><br />For example: No surgeries after age X. Yes to x-rays and bloodwork for analysis if it will guide treatment. Yes to any meds needed. Euthanasia only if A, B, & C (that last one is the hardest decision to make if needed, but it was good for us to write it down so that we could say NO if conditions hadn't happen, and YES if they had. ).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03231464198799653331noreply@blogger.com
