Default faint shriek, faint Enid's vet bill.

I sympathise almightily. When Brandy had her tooth trouble last year we not only
got socked with a bill that was more than our car payment, Yours Jackass Truly
wrote the check from the wrong account, causing an insifficiant funds situation
that took a month to correct. God bless the vet; they decided to take the check
anyway.

This is nothing to what you went through though. I'm so sorry about poor Enid.
Who in their right minds would spend such cash on a goose? Someone who loves her
animals dearly. My Brandy bill was an inconvenience for a short time, but I'd do
it again in half a heartbeat for the love I have for my Bit, or any of my other
little ones. Don't question your sanity. The love and care you have for your
creatures always comes with a heart in the right place.

Ble3ssed be,

You will not believe Enid's vet bill that came today.

The vet did warn me that the bill would escalate to 200 pounds if I went for
the endoscopy so I said to hold off for a couple of days to see how the
antibiotics worked and if they didn't I'd think again.

The invoice is for 233 pounds 30 pence and Enid never got the endoscopy, as
she died before it came about. Everything is itemised, but for g sake who
in their right mind would spend all this money on a goose when you can buy
another for less than 20 quid, a bit more sometimes.

I am not best pleased. I would like to have saved Enid for Shylock's sake
but really.. a goose is a goose, he would have got fond of another in couple
of weeks.
Waiting for the necropsy results.
