Hi BW gang! Mugsy started acupuncture today and was a very good boy throughout the procedure. I must admit that I did not get a warm, fuzzy feeling from the doctor, but he seemed to be dealing with many issues today, as his cell kept ringing. I am reserving judgement for next week's visit. He was polite and nice enough, but a little distracted, and left some of my concerns hanging. I made 2 more appointments, but if I am not happy after that, I will find someone else. The reason I was drawn to this particular doctor was that he works at the hospital where Mugsy's neurologist is and he is a neurologist himself. Don't worry, I will not put up with any s#*% from any doctor! I was just glad that he supported my supplementation agenda and didn't give me any new bad news (something that seems to be the norm with any recent vet visit). I get really anxious when we have a vet appointment--so afraid they are going to say,"Wow, your dog is really f#$%^* up." Anyhow, we are still plugging along and hanging in. It's funny, I actually took the time to read my entire thread over tonight and it's hard to absorb all that has happened. Although I may seem to be a strong person, I still cry a lot. Then, I think about those whose babies who have been diagnosed with cancer...and I shut up real quick. They are the strongest ones. I feel more for them than I do for myself or Mugsy. I pray for miracles for all of us every day, just as I pray for long, happy lives for all of our BW friends. Good night to all.
