The struggle is real
Hello, Wealthy Affiliates;
Well, this year has been one of the most emotional roller costers I've been on for a long time, when I first joined Wealthy Affiliates I thought this was just a rue but the more I worked and talked to kyle and the rest of you I came to realize that this was the chance of a lifetime for me so I grabbed the chance at making something of myself and make a better life for my fiance Amy Book and my youngest son Connor.
Then the inevitable hit, I had to delete my account due to money issues then another devastating blow hit a day before my birthday on January 24th someone stole my best companion Lucy my puppies mother which was nine months old and her babies had just been whined at 4 weeks, My fiance, her nephew bobby and I spent all afternoon looking for lucy, they walked the road while I hit the woods I covered about 4 square miles of the woods around 74 Bear Bluff Trail, Ravenden AR and no sign or trace of her. And you think that was messed up not even close.
So now its the day of my birthday January 25 I was still hurt and bummed out because there was still no sign of lucy I called her name all night and all morning of the 25th before I came to realize she wasn't coming back, So since it was my birthday I had it planned I was going to try and enjoy the rest of the day so Amy and I headed into town to get me some beer and her her butterball shots, it was around 4 in the after when we got back home still no sign of lucy my dog, Ok so before we started getting on with the fun we ate and looked one more time for lucy still nothing.
Ok, we got back to the house and guess what yep I broke into the beer had a few shots of fireball and Amy had a few drinks too well around 9 pm her brother-in-law came home, and oh boy her sister and him started a yelling match ok all good we weren't involved so about midnight we were going to bed the last thing I remember was my head hitting the pillow and out of nowhere here comes her sister yelling at the top of her lungs " Get The F Out " so Needles to say we got kicked out at 4 in the morning nowhere to go with 9 puppies and all our stuff so needless to say we had to get the only hotel that would allow pet at 80 dollars a night plus 10 for each puppy, Now we're homeless no money but for one more night at the hotel thank heavens for the churches around here. and out of the blue didn't even see this coming Amys mom stops by and tells us we can come to her house until we can get back on our feet, So here we are at her moms' house all I can say is at least we have a roof over our heads, "BUT"
Remember what I said at the beginning this has been the most "Emotional roller coasters". Since we've been here we've lost two of our babies "puppies". one to the freezing temps last month and the worst one of them all we lost one at 4:30 this morning to the parvovirus, which shouldn't have happened but Allied Emergency Animal Clinic wouldn't let me make payments for her treatment we had $120 to get her in but didn't have the rest so that was Saturday when we called them we were up all night googling trying to find help for her, and since it was Sunday no one opens no help so we did what we could with what we had, But regardless no matter how hard we tried to save her she was too far gone. So we are still trying to find a way to treat her brother which isn't as bad as her but he still has the parvovirus,
So the good news is we are back here where we belong trying to better our lives and the best part is.. All the hard work we put into googling trying to save our Octavia we found two home remedies that work on the parvovirus. So Snoopy her brother is slowly getting better. "YAY"
So the moral of my story is no matter how bad thing get if you keep pushing and pushing eventually things will slowly get better all you have to do is be persistent and most of all don't give up keep fighting if not you'll whine up with nothing and regret not pushing yourself to get where you want to be so GOOD LUCK AND KEEP ON MOVING FORWARDS!
Thank you, Kevin Miller

So sorry you are going through all of this, Kevin! 🙏🙏
As for parvo--if you can get a syringe and stick it down the dogs throat with some Kaopectate, then follow that with baby formula!
The medicine coats the stomach and the formula provides nourishment and hydration. You will be successful about 50-75% of the time! A vet told me that when we didn't have the money when I was much younger, and it worked!

We lost Cora this morning. But ya I've been using pepto and pedialyte for hydration we have prebiotics and probiotics and amoxicillin coming today. So we will at least have 2 out of 4 to survive this nasty virus. Thank you Jeff
Ah, so you already knew about that rick, Kevin! sorry about your losses, but hopefully the two will pull through!
Jeff
I will still honour your request Kevin. Please bear with me a bit more.
You're showing persistence, determination and confidence.
Well done you.
Continue to keep the momentum going.
You're getting there!
Hey Kevin I must salute you on your ability to stay calm through all this adversity that you are facing. I know that it must be extremely tough to be hit every which way but you sound like despite it all you are determined to continue to move forward. That's the kind of winning spirit that will take you far. I am hoping you can further 'catch yourself' and achieve the goals you desire. Wishing you well.
