[Gpdd] Rainbow bridge: Eddie

[Mieke Staaks]

Hi Cindy,

So sorry to hear you lost your little man! Must be so frustrating to know
he is not right, but not finding out what is bothering him... I remember
that's how I felt with Dunya (quite a long time ago) her teeth kept
overgrowing and then she had to be sedated for our vet to want to fix her
teeth again... Our vet did not want to use gas, so she got the injectable
narcotics, didn't help her feel better either. Quite some time later I
found out she probably had thrush, but we had never heard of that then. Do
remember that vet saying her breath smelled bad... Since then we found a
better more knowledgeable vet, who is practical, willing to learn and
investigate. And they recognise we are quite knowledgeable about piggies,
and are willing to consider our thoughts about what is ailing a pig. Had
some that would go into 'but I am the doctor' mode, and not would not
listen to our suggestions or ideas.

We know for sure that Eddie felt loved and was in your excellent care! Hope
the sadness and tears will soon turn in to loving memories and smiles!

Hugs from me and wheeks from the guinygirlz Raani and Cookie and boar Binky,
Mieke
