Well today I'm having a really bad day, yesterday I sold my dear horse, as I am unable to take care of him anymore(Im having a bit of a cry over this at the moment), my poor dear dog Ned, isn't well, and it could be either an ulcer or a tumor.
On a good note I picked up my potassium tablets this morning so can now start taking them!!
So all this extra stress is not doing my MG any good, along with the lower potassium, which I know is making me very tired and causing my muscles to be weaker. Im glad I can come here and get some support!!

Redtail, I'm so sorry to hear about your horse and your dog. After what you've said, I can well understand why you're having a bad day.

Your horse will have a good home I'm sure of that. Loving it the way you obviously do, you'd never have let it go otherwise. I've never owned a horse. My experience with them has been limited to riding schools, but I can certainly understand your pain.

Your dog is in good hands with the vet. Vets are trained to make animals well, just the same as I was trained to help people get better when I trained as a nurse.

You're in my thoughts redtail......

Thanks Koala77,

Yes my horse is going to a wonderful place with lots of new friends, I guess I'm just sad that its the end of an era for me.

My dear little dog is a little better today, and yes the vet I take him to is wonderful.

So thanks for your kind words!!

Hi all, bad news regarding my dear dog Ned I'm afraid.
Took him in for an ultra sound thisarvo, and it showed up spleen liver and stomach cancer, I cant believe he has done this well so far.
thanks for all your support

Awe...My newfoundland isn't doing too well lately. He's 10, which is old for a newf. I can't imagine him not being around.
I'm so sorry about your furry friend.
God Bless You
Love Lizzie
