Ouch! Wish there was a better way for vets to handle that, but not sure how. When we went through it I wanted to pay right then, as I didn't want to have to go back at all, though they were very good to us. While I was writing the check a lady, with her own little dog, came up to me and quietly said "God bless you". I definitely don't "wear my religion on my sleeve", but I was very surprised by how kind and comforting that simple gesture was. I wish the same to you.
