I have been away from the forum for quite some time. I just wanted to let everyone know that three days ago we made the heartbreaking decision to let Alex go. I was blessed to have him for 14 years.
I cannot thank this forum enough for being there when Alex was first diagnosed. He was originally misdiagnosed with Cushings and started on medication. Leslie and Glynda directed me to the University of Tennessee, he was then diagnosed with Atypical Cushing's. Alex also suffered from Epilepsy, thyroid issues, and IBD. In the end the vet thinks the phenobarbital did too much liver damage. He was also in kidney failure. The ironic thing is that for many years Alex had almost no hair. A few months ago 80% of his hair grew back for no apparent reason. He went to heaven looking cuter than ever.
My sweet baby Alex, we will miss you forever and always.💔
