Poor Poor Thea

It's been months now that Thea has not been well.  Still, we are uncertain as to what exactly is wrong, but we know it involves pain, sleeplessness, and spinal/neck issues that don't allow her to fully lower her head.  This is after spending thousands of dollars...to only find out what we could easily have told you ourselves.  She has been on pain meds & anti-anxiety meds to help manage the pain.  Our reality, unfortunately is that we cannot afford the diagnostic test and the following news that might involve surgery. We are about to have two kids in college and have many other financial needs that makes us hesitate to use thousands more.  In all honestly, it's been hell.  This began on a Sunday, October 12th.  We took her to the emergency animal hospital, which gave us no good information and sucked thousands of dollars from our pockets.  It's been over 2 months now and it's been a bit of a rollercoaster, not exactly knowing what is wrong, experimenting with meds, and over 70 days of sleepless nights.  Anna's been bearing the brunt of it.  I am not sure at all how this will all end.  There's been more than one moment when we've been sure we were putting her down.   And yet, here she is.  Yesterday she looked great during the day and then again horrible at night.  This is not fun to write, not fun to endure, and so sad for Thea.
