I think it is so sad that Sara doesn't get to do therapy anymore.. I also would have thought that it would be a great way to educate people. It used to make me cry when people would look at Gus with disgust...then i realized that they were the ones missing out on the most amazing little guy!
I explain Gus' condition to anyone who asks.. before when he was so sick , and he had open wounds all over, it was really hard for people to want to pet him... he looked like it hurt... but now , people often ask about his freckle face. I tell them about his condition.
gus is very mellow and sweet and very unassuming. Everyone who has met him agrees that there is something so very special about him... a sweetness... he really is my heart dog!
I managed to get my hands on the generic and starting tomorrow, Gus will be getting that . I pray that it works...
The Trental manufacturer tells me it has a release day mid july... but i dont believe them. I have asked them outright if they are discontinuing the product and they tell me no... but again, i am not really believing them... there is something wierd going on ... I really pray they do not discontinue this med... it has been a miracle for Gus.
No one has used any alternative methods for this condition that do not involve steriods or worse, Immuran? I am all ears!
