I'm not sure there is a fixed dose. I have
always been told (by people who are really into holistic medicine and by a
holistic vet) to give 4-5 drops in water or put 2-3 on his head or in his
mouth. Do this as often as you think necessary. It has very
little taste.
Let me tell you a little about the Royal Princess
Kitty Katt: She had cancer and we found out how badly it spread in
November. The previous February she had made it very plain that she
did not want treated and we thought she would live 2-3 months. Given
what I found out in November I decided that she would not have to travel again
(she hated cars). This was extremely difficult as was letting her leave
this world without assistance but it was the best thing I ever did for
her. If Sam is in no pain you may want to let him leave on his own.
Thank goodness your vet will come to the house. That is a blessing for
both you and Sam. Any way you handle this will be right. But you are
going to feel considerably more at peace if you are sure what Sam
wants. Please calm yourself (easier said than done) and listen to
him. I suspect it is not quite his time. Give him permission to
leave and assure him you will be fine but do not rush him. Kitty
lived 15 months when the vets, including some very good specialists,
said 2-3 and they were high quality months. If you can
not calm yourself and listen, consider an animal communicator. But you are
the one Sam loves and trusts and you are the one he will talk to best.
My holistic vet gave Kitty an Alaskan essence
called Calling All Angels. When I googled that phrase I got this website
http://www.andiesisle.com/Calling_All_Angels.html
I go there a lot when things are very rough. Try it. I wish I had
had it while Kitty was on her journey from this world. Just so you know,
she was never in any pain. She just got weaker and weaker then left.
Again, try the website. You are in a lot of pain yourself and so is your
family. May all the angels watch over you and Sam.
If you have men who will exclude any of God's
creatures
from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who
will deal likewise with their fellow
man.

RE: Sam To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Oh Helene, don't feel bad for telling me how you feel. I've been
through it and it is heartbreaking.
I would ask the vet what he would do, but that's just another piece of
information to help you decide. Sometimes i go with what the vet says
and sometimes i don't. You know him best.
I really don't know about the rescue remedy. I've never tried
it. You should post to the list for that. I'll post this for you
if you like.
keep me posted, and you'll all 3 be in my prayers.

Thanks, Tonya..I hope Sam will give me a
sign. Any sign. I adore my wonderful vet, Kevin Fowler, but he
always defers to what I think is best. The buck stops here. I do not
think he is in pain, but they mask it so well. After the initial bout in
1999, he and I and the vet fought hard to get him in
remission.And did!! Until now!! What really hurts is that I have to
use a 21 guage needle for the 100 cc of Ringer's he gets daily subcu
because a smaller guage one would take forever.. He is not in renal
failure. Urine looks like diabetes insipidus. Cell count is
barely above transfusion level. I said no to that. Just taking him
in for blood work after 7 years of handling all problems by phone was such
a trauma for him. He fought me furiously when I tried to get him out
of his carrier (didn't try to bite me, but clung with his legs to the
inside of the carrier.and was so terrified.) It was awful. I had stopped
the procrit but have restarted it in the hopes that his
marrow is trying to make cells. And I also said no to a bone
marrow aspiration for dx.
Today he is drinking less on his own, but his skin
snaps back ok I have not asked Kevin a question I should; what he
would do for one of his own. God knows I don'twant to keep him here for
me. I have had a knot in my stomach for weeks which wont
unravel..............do you think rescue remedy would be helpful? I
mean for Sammy. I almost bought some at Rainbow grocery, but need to
know how much and could he taste it in the water? I know I can ask the
list, but I am sure you know...........
Kevin will come to the house to put him down. And isn't it ironic that my son and I just 2 months filled in the gravesite we dug 7
years ago
thinking he would die soon. He and his mother Delilah have been my
joy for 13 years of their lives.........sorry to
to unload on you this way..............Helene
Helene,
I'm so sorry to hear that Sammy is not doing well. 15 is a long
good life though. Enjoy your time with him. He'll let you know
when he's ready to go.

and Helene sharing a brief moment outside. He had to be carried
gently to the table....not much energy. He loves to see and hear the
birds. 7/07/06. The feline leukemia is out of
remission.............Back to lots of meds and fluids. Say a prayer
for us to know what is the best thing to do. Sammy is 15 years
old.......... Vet concurs with whatever seems best day by
day
We who choose to surround ourselves with
lives even more temporary than our own, live within a fragile
circle, easily and often breached, unable to accept its
awful gaps; we would still live no other way. We cherish
memory as the only certain immortality, never fully understanding
the necessary plan.
