Lyndsy, you poor dear! Really, it seems cruel to me that no one is in contact w/you. I am sure your baby is getting the best possible care but you truly have a right to know what is going on w/him. Can you ask the specialist to have someone specific call you each day w/an update? That seems to be the least they can do to put your mind at ease. I am sorry but it seems like they don't realize what this little bug means to you. I know there are cultural differences, but really!
We had an older dog in vet hospital once (our friend was the vet) & he called us every day. He, too, asked us not to come as Kirby was on infusions & it upset him so when we left that he would howl for hours. We abided by what they asked and it was very, very difficult for us. We did not know if he would live or die. They finally called and said we could come & get him as there was nothing else they could do for him & they wanted him to be w/us when he passed. As soon as he saw us he perked up & we took him to another hospital & it turned out he lived several more years!
So it is a hard call for me to tell you what to do---but not as hard as it is for you to sit it out not knowing how he really is!
Sometimes we have to trust when we don't have a lot of that on reserve. . . I will pray that God will give you wisdom & tenacity along w/skill for the doctors. I wish I were there to give you a big hug!

Grrrr I am angry !!!! Xx

They've not let you know yet? Cheek, phone them back. That's bad they've not let you know, chances are you'll get someone else on the phone if you call back who may be much more helpfull.

Lyndsy-I'm sorry that happened. I was hoping you could talk to vet. Is the person that hung up going to have some one call? I'd be asking for the person in charge of the office.

even if to say you shouldn't be treated like that. I know it can be frustrating for hospitals with ER situations here as well. Hang in there, someone should call soon I would think.

If you dont hear anything, get yourself down there to see what the heck is happening! and complain! hugs to you! let us know what is going on....

**Maizy Moo's Mum** · 12-07-2012, 11:43 AM

Its nearly 5pm here if you havent heard anything i would be inclined to give them another call before the specialists go home as they might do???

**Snowbody** · 12-07-2012, 11:46 AM

How rude and frustrating

I think I would try again and ask for the office manager. Or else call after hours and use the darn emergency line. You have a right to know how your sweetie pie is doing. Still praying.

You might have to take yourself there, though I know it's a long way to go, even to talk to the doctor...you don't have to let Albert see you if it will upset him but there might be a way for you to see him and him not see you.

**Furbabies mom** · 12-07-2012, 11:51 AM

Praying that all is well with Albert today.

I am thinking of the time difference here from Scotland & hoping against hope that the vet hospital will contact you now. Please let us know when you hear something! Bless your heart!

**Leila'sMommy** · 12-07-2012, 12:36 PM

I'm so sorry that happened this morning! I was hoping you'd have an update by now. I would call again too and if the person who answers isn't allowed to give out information, then insist on speaking to someone who can.
