| Need your prayers please my friend ask that i please post this on her behalf. my friend's brother and their family are making a very difficult decision this week and could really use some good thoughts and prayers. below is the message she asked me to post: My brother and sister in law have 2 yorkies. The oldest is 8 and the youngest just turned 6. Those are their babies now, and believe me, these 2 are spoiled Anyway, awhile back the 8 year old started throwing up and not eating, she had cancer, they did surgery and they told my brother and his wife, she could have a few weeks or it could be a few mos. They thought they maybe got all the cancer, but, it's back again. My brother and s-i-l are devastated. Please say a prayer for them all. I think most likely she will have her put down this week as she just won't let her suffer anymore. Anyway, my brother just had a mansion(6800 sq feet) built recently, and they took the door in their laundry room(that I'm going to post after this) and they had a lady paint their pictures over the little opening on the bottom(where they have their beds in the closet, to hide when they want to get away from people). Also, the little water bowl on the left side looks like a little toilet. My sister in law just spent $500 on pictures of the 2 dogs together to remember Bailey by when she's gone. The cancer my brothers yorkie has is stomache cancer. My sister gave me a site to read with lists of the dog foods that carry the ingredients that can cause this. I will post it as the 2nd link. The first link I want you to read, is the one I also found. It's worth reading, it may save you the heartache that they're facing right now. http://www.aplus-flint-river-ranch.c....php?win=small http://www.flintriverfeed.com/index....and_ethoxyquin It also talks about the by-products.

| Lyn posted this for me, and after she posted it, my brother told my sister in law to take Bailey(the 8 year old yorkie) to a different vet in Louisville, KY to see if they could do more surgery and give them more time with her. Well, when the vet opened Bailey up, the cancer had spread and she was covered with it. The vet asked my s-i-l if she wanted them to euthanize her while she was asleep so they wouldn't have to wake her up and her be in pain, then put her down. My sister in law agreed to that. This was very hard on my brother and s-i-l, mostly because Bailey was still so young. Abby(the 6 year old) has really helped them through these difficult days |
