For instance, when people use age as a reason to not pursue diagnostics or a treatment plan? I often say to them, "well, my husband is 60, I don't tell him that he has to live with his knee pain because he's too old to get it fixed. I'll just put him down now and get a new one."krista magnifico, DVMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15133566329579911573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4667516629745731439.post-39622579840473477042015-05-31T18:20:38.946-07:002015-05-31T18:20:38.946-07:00Savior is a term we use in many religions, but for...Savior is a term we use in many religions, but for all the Simon's out there it means "Thank you Dr. Krista" UGhorsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12733498740196601898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4667516629745731439.post-75120508604941910972015-05-31T09:43:05.954-07:002015-05-31T09:43:05.954-07:00Poor Simon.

I'm an animal control officer and deal with a wide variety of pet owners too -- everything from the over-the-top neurotic to the ignorant to the down right heartless. All we can do is keep doing our best and hope we are making a difference. Wine and chocolate help.
