Oh im so sorry! Im glad its over now. Max wouldnt wake up at all unless I woke him up. The longest i've left him alone to sleep was 3 days. And when he didnt move the 4th day, i woke him up and he looked so weak :(
I still remember the horrible time we had with Joe and his URI followed by 2 liver infections. We spent about a year visiting the vet. It was desperate when he was so ill. I honestly doubted my capabilities at looking after anything let alone a tort. All that because he had too much testosterone :(

It took me a long while to recover, never mind him.

It was TFO that helped me recover my confidence and realise that actually I hadn't been doing much wrong over the preceding decades.

Having had him so long must have made it extra hard.
Tidgy was new to me, so I was prepared for the possibility of her not surviving and wasn't so emotionally involved.
Don't know how i'd cope now.
I joined the forum when she had a bad leg.
It was nothing, but the first problem since her recovery and I panicked.
The forum was very kind, helpful and welcoming.

I believe i saw pictures of Joe during this time, either you mentioned it in someone else's thread or it was your own thread. Such a scary thing to happen. Im glad its all better now though!

When Max was new to me. I was already emotionally attached. Its like a kid thats been wanting a dog for so long and finally got one 10 years later .

Nice.:)
I guess I was with Tidgy, too, hence all those hours with her, day after day, doing nothing else but watch her and care for her.
I just tried and pretended not to be, as i feared the worst.
