phyllis, i'm so glad you found your critter, what worry and concern they put us through. so glad you found her and all is well. we gotta love them though, maybe alittle hard of hearing now as mine is. they love to find that secret spot of theirs.

hi susan, sorry to hear about your dog and what he is going through. my pets are like my kids too, they mean everything to me. 12 teeth is alot to lose for a dog at one time. poor baby. hopefully the work you had done on him will resolve his issues. bacteria from dental problems can cause alot of problems so i have been told, we just had our dogs teeth cleaned too. and he is 12 yrs old. i pray gatsby is feeling better when you get home today. baby him for a few days and let him know everything is ok, plus his hormones have been affected from the nuturing. he just needs sometime to get back to his old self again. i wish you both the best.

yes bonnie, you sure have come a long way. something to be very proud of. you are a great example of recovery from a stroke and the hard work that it takes. a great inspiration to others here. you will get to the place you want to be at, so keep working at it.

kimmie

thankyou ladies for your comments, i know it will pass, maybe i am to sensitive. people do need to be in your shoes, after a stroke, to know how you feel. i guess some people just don't have common sense anymore.

thanks again,

kimmie

Hi Kimmie,

 

Glad you had a good week except for the surprise from the malpractice suit. There should have been something in your original contract with your attorneys that stated if you were going to get stuck paying costs whether you got a settlement or not. Our original contract with our attorneys says they get costs (which are well over $40K now and building daily until we go to trial in May), plus a percentage of settlement. I have been prepared all along that if we lose the case, we will have to pay the lawyers costs and court costs, so we are hoping and praying daily that the jury will rule in our favor. If that doesn't happen, it will take the last of the equity from our home to pay off that debt.

Good luck in your dads recovery, things will look brighter soon, i hope kimmie
