Concerned about Chandler's Pot Belly

Know that each and everyone of us here on this forum,are keeping you in prayers.This is a very difficult decision,and none of us even want to make. But as I said earliar to you,you are an amazing mom to your babes.And Chandler & Gypsey love you with every bit of thier heart & soul.

Keeping you close in prayer.
 
I'm so sorry to hear this :(. Since he can't take prednisone and cushing's disease medicine together, is there a natural cushing's remedy you can try? I googled "cushing's disease natural treatment" and a few promising sites popped up.

I'm sure you will make the right decision for him. If he is a lucky guy to have such a devoted owner.

I saw them also Randi and if it were just the Cushings I would be inclined to try them. I am just starting to realize over the last year he has continued to decline in many ways. It is a year this month since he had the spinal stroke. It was than it REALLY hit me,he was not my young perky boy anymore. He was getting old and he has really had a tough year,so many ups and downs,not eating. I just think he has had enough and I am prolonging his life and making him suffer. It is always said when they turn away from food they are ready to go. If I look at the whole year he has spent 75% of it turning away from food. As my vet said he is only eating now because of the prednisone so I am artificially prolonging his life.
I feel the prednisone is causing additional problems to the many he already has. I am starting to think it is selfish and unfair to him when I can tell he is uncomfortable. Sorry for rambling. I guess it helps to spell it all out.

I appreciate everyones concerns and I know I will really need your support if this decision is made. I may sound like I am handling this decision well but inside I am holding on by a thread.
