beaker5555.bsky.social @beaker5555.bsky.social · 10/08/2026this thread is why i don't understand how anyone falls for scammers who call and offer help with something. when you need help, you can't get it. no one is ever going to call and offer to fix your computer, help with your taxes or make sure you get a package delivered unless it's a scam! periodt. 010
beaker5555.bsky.social @beaker5555.bsky.social · 09/08/2026maybe if we'd diagnosed an auto immune disease before she went blind, maybe we could've prevented it, but realistically, her going blind was inevitable. so don't use my anecdote alone to judge librella, but know there are risks and potential rewards. 110
beaker5555.bsky.social @beaker5555.bsky.social · 09/08/2026i should include the disclaimer - mufasa got 2 monthly librella shots and she went blind after the second dose. i don't believe the librella itself caused the blindness - i think the librella triggered a major autoimmune reaction that caused the blindness. 110
beaker5555.bsky.social @beaker5555.bsky.social · 09/08/2026my last thought is: have you considered librella? it is controversial and not available everywhere. there are miracle stories of significant improvement for arthritis, but there are also horror stories of dogs dying from various side effects. it might be an option for a less invasive last resort? 110
beaker5555.bsky.social @beaker5555.bsky.social · 09/08/2026mufasa could use another teeth cleaning but our vet cautioned us about sedating an older dog, this was around 2 years ago when she first went blind. I don't think I would put an 11 year old dog through 3 surgeries, but your choices suck either way, so whatever you choose is the right decision. 110
beaker5555.bsky.social @beaker5555.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Mufasa has been taking wellactin and dasaquin (both joint supplements) for years. when she started on galliprant i noticed a marked improvement to her gait. she's currently on a steroid for evans syndrome, so she's off the galliprant - but if i go on an evans tangent we'll be here all week. 110
beaker5555.bsky.social @beaker5555.bsky.social · 09/08/2026like anything on the Internet (including this thread) you have to evaluate advice for yourself, with your vet, but you might find some helpful ideas and if nothing else, you can commiserate with people who are going thru the same thing. I'm not a fan of FB in general, but i find groups valuable. 110
beaker5555.bsky.social @beaker5555.bsky.social · 09/08/2026Mufasa has had arthritis for years, went blind from SARDS two years ago, and in the past few months has been diagnosed with Evans Syndrome. I believe the Evans and sards is auto immune related. through all of it, I've found the most helpful thing has actually been Facebook groups specific to each. 110
beaker5555.bsky.social @beaker5555.bsky.social · 09/08/2026I'm sorry for all you're going through. making decisions for your dog when they can't tell you how they feel is so so hard. I don't have any experience with heart issues but wish you and Dex peace in whatever comes next. 110

![When the 1974 recording of the song reached number one on the country charts, Elvis Presley indicated that he wanted to record the song.
Parton was interested until Presley's manager, Colonel Tom Parker, told her that it was standard procedure for the songwriter to sign over half of the publishing rights to any song Elvis recorded.
[28] Parton refused. She recalls:
I said, 'I'm really sorry,' and I cried all night. I mean, it was like the worst thing. You know, it's like, Oh, my God... Elvis Presley.' And other people were saying, 'You're nuts. It's Elvis Presley!'...I said, 'I can't do that.
Something in my heart says, 'Don't do that. And I just didn't do it... He would have killed it. But anyway, so he didn't. Then when Whitney [Houston's version] came out, I made enough money to buy Graceland. 29]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:oxplkzuausfufk5dthatrd5m/bafkreihq5mquwwvljjtys7fyqpnwvzj4cnfrkinrrbuhflwrdkxerzcghi)
