NOT going off on all doctors or anything but it's a bad message to hear that. If you want, get a second opinion. If it's worth it to you then go ahead if there's something they could possibly do. My heart goes out to your loss and it may not happen, but start building up for it incase. I'm sure it'll be hard.

If it were mine i would be telling the vet off for being lazy and disinterested in his own profession!!! Sharon is going to take the little one off this womans hands in order to give it a chance and if it comes good place it in a pet home. Just hoping to get some ideas so we can narrow it down and improve the odds. Julie
