Question Made appt with DVM - Chinese medicine

I hope Im doing the right thing. I made an appt with a DVM that practices Chinese medicine and told me he can help my poor little baby. I know there is Western medicine and other avenues but Im so new to this I really dont know which is better. Any input would be much appreciated.

Default Re: Chinese Medicine

Dear Friend,

You are absolutely taking the right step and someone who can attest to that is one of our members, Brian Riddle who has been seeing a Chinese Herbalist Specialist for his dog Molly who was diagnosed with nasal cancer in 2007 and expected to live only weeks. She is still alive and doing well.

Brian has allowed me to share his email address and he will tell you Molly's story:
brianriddle803@gmail.com

The friend who helped us with Benny's cancer studied for years under a sixth generational herbalist and she, not our vet was the one who gave 18 extra quality months to Benny's life. We will forever be grateful that we found her. There is much to be said about "Chinese medicine" which has been around for thousands of years!

Good luck!

Blessings,
Joanne & Shadow

Benpaws I cant tell you how excited I was to read your post because Im just so afraid I am not going to do all I can for my sweet little boy. Im so glad I found you guys but it is so unfortunate that we have to share in this dreadful disease. Im sure Benny knew how much you loved him and did all you can. I would be so thankful to get more time with Guido than just a month or so. I just cant bare the thought of losing him. Again I thank you with all my heart for sharing. I will also contact Brian.

Good luck with the herbalist! I'm sure you'll get some great advice. Keep us posted on Guido's progress.

My friend Brian is a long distance truck driver, so if you don't get an answer right away, that means he is on a route. He will definitely get back to you.

Never give up hope!

Prayers to you and hugs to Guido!

My friend Suzi was not Chinese but studied with a Chinese herbalist for many years.

Blessings,
Joanne & Shadow
