That is very well said! Thank you I will certainly tell her my thoughts and to keep her opinions to herself if she says anything to me. In a message dated 10/28/2006 11:58:43 A.M. Pacific Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: If someone has a sick child who needs very expensive medical care, would anyone tell them that the same amount of money could save 30 children dying of malaria in another country (which is probably true)? By her reasoning, no one should ever get expensive medical care for themselves, their kids, or their animals, because the same amount of money could always be used to buy simpler, cheaper life-saving care for other humans or animals in other places. There is of course logic to it. But love has its own logic, and the truth is that no matter what we do we can not save everyone. So it is good that the tech saves many animals over a few, in her own life, I guess. But it is nonsensical, as well as inappropriate and ineffective, for her to try to convince you to do the same. While she may save many, she obviously has never loved one in quite the way the way that we have, in a way that explodes logic and just creates a fierce need to protect them and maintain their life and happiness. If she tries to say anything to you again, tell her you have different priorities than her, and a lot of love for your individual animals. Michelle In a message dated 10/28/2006 2:37:31 P.M.

Re: UPDATE:Dukee 10/28/06
If she voices an unwanted opinion again ask her how she would feel if she was the one dog. I do understand money but there have been times with my own vets' techs that I wanted silence or support whether they agreed or not. Even my vets offer opinions when they know I want them. I hope things are going well. Will you be able to check on Dukee this weekend? 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: UPDATE:Dukee 10/28/06
Hi Terrie, I am so sorry for all that you and Dukee are going through. I searched "vaccine" in the archives of the yahoo FIP list, below are some excerpts that may help you in your decision on vaccinating the others. It has been a little while ago for us, so can't recall all of our reasoning on it at the time, but we chose not to vaccinate ours after losing Ally. I think part of it was that we figured they had all been exposed anyway, although ultimately only Ally ended up with a positive titer at 1:100. The others may have been very low positive, Idexx labs only tested down to a 1:100 dilution. As I understand it, Cornell is the only place to test all the way to zero, giving a definite FCoV negative. I am picturing Dukee getting much stronger with the feeding tube, it seems to have helped so many others here. Take care, Beth This info is published on the Cornell University of Veterinary Medicine website:see http://www.vet.cornell.edu/fhc/resources/brochure/fip.htmlIn multiple cat environments, keeping cats as healthy as possible and minimizing exposure to infectious agents lessens the likelihood of cats' developing FIP. Preventing overcrowding, keeping cats current on vaccinations, providing proper nutrition and adequate sanitation, and eliminating feline leukemia virus infections can be helpful in reducing the incidence of FIP groups of cats.The first FIP vaccine (Primucell FIP by Pfizer Animal Health) was introduced in 1991. It is a temperature- sensitive, modified-live vaccine. The vaccine is licensed for intranasal vaccination of cats at 16 weeks of age, with boosters in 3 to 4 weeks, and then yearly. Once a cat is vaccinated, its serum may have a positive coronavirus antibody titer. This could be a problem for cattery owners who use serologic testing to maintain a coronavirus-free population. The vaccine appears to be safe, but various studies have yielded different estimates of vaccine efficacy. The role that Primucell FIP will ultimately play in protecting cats from FIP is not yet known; for the time being, discussions with your veterinarian should help you decide if your cat should be vaccinated. Dr. Addie What is Primucell?Primucell, made by Pfizer, is the only commercially available FIP vaccine in the world. Primucell is a temperature-sensitive mutant feline coronavirus which is instilled intra-nasally and gives rise to local IgA immunity and cell-mediated immunity. Primucell prevents FIP in 50-75% of cats who would have otherwise developed it, but is ineffective in cats previously exposed to FCoV. Thus, in households where FCoV is endemic (most cat breeder's households) Primucell has to be used in kittens which have already undergone the special management procedure known as early weaning and isolation, so that they are FCoV free when vaccinated.
Re: UPDATE:Dukee 10/28/06
If someone has a sick child who needs very expensive medical care, would anyone tell them that the same amount of money could save 30 children dying of malaria in another country (which is probably true)? By her reasoning, no one should ever get expensive medical care for themselves, their kids, or their animals, because the same amount of money could always be used to buy simpler, cheaper life-saving care for other humans or animals in other places. There is of course logic to it. But love has its own logic, and the truth is that no matter what we do we can not save everyone. So it is good that the tech saves many animals over a few, in her own life, I guess. But it is nonsensical, as well as inappropriate and ineffective, for her to try to convince you to do the same. While she may save many, she obviously has never loved one in quite the way the way that we have, in a way that explodes logic and just creates a fierce need to protect them and maintain their life and happiness. If she tries to say anything to you again, tell her you have different priorities than her, and a lot of love for your individual animals. Michelle In a message dated 10/28/2006 2:37:31 P.M.
