Oh Rhonnie, I'm so sorry to hear of this but you know you mustn't fear the worse until it has been confirmed, your husband's attitude and whole outlook can have a positive effect on this, please do your best to keep his spirits up and hope alive. I think that maybe he is jumping the gun a little here, why not wait and see what the doc says. Your animals will be a comfort to you at this time (and can also have a positive effect on your health) so think carefully before giving any up.
Of course as Judy has already said, we will gladly be on hand to take your mind off things if need be. Please feel free to pm me if you so wish and good luck with the visit to the docs ;-)
