enzyme diane morbid question

Ok, i know this is morbid but i cant help but think it: There is no chance I could afford prescription enzymes to treat my girl. If it werent for enzyme diane I dont know what I would do. Enzyme Diane seems like a one person operation. What if , god forbid, something happens to her?

Dianes enzymes are a God send for sure.
There are other places online where you can buy enzymes, no prescription.
We assume Diane will be around for many years to come.

Oh MAN, what a thought! Let's hope she takes her vitamins & wears a mask!
Tucker was a shepherd/lab mix--- TLI 1.3, Folate 9.7, Cobalamin 666, Lipase 38. Took Diane's Enzymes 4 teaspoons/day, Wonderlabs B12 one capsule per day, and Tylan 1/16 teaspoon/ morning (to hold SID at bay). Taste of the Wild High Prairie, 1 1/2 cups/day, with a total of 4 cups of Fresh Pet. Stopped eating everything in sight, and went from 60 to 85 pounds! Tucker was my boyfriend, and my husband was OK with that. Tucker succumbed to hemangiosarcoma, but we cherished every day we had with that wonderful, beautiful boy. I will always, always miss my sweet big boy.

Diane's enzymes have been a life saver and game changer for so many of us, me included. There is no way we could have afforded the necessary enzymes for 13+ years for my gal Izzy, if it wasn't for EnzymeDiane! However, thankfully Diane is fairly young and her enzyme business has evolved into a family affair so i am sure she has arrangements in place for any unforeseen "just in case" situations.
Olesia, was owned by Izzy, a 35lb Spanish Water Dog (SWD), Diagnosed at 1.5 years old - TLI results 1.. Izzy passed away on February 13, 2020 at 15 years old. She lived with EPI for 13+1/2 years. It was because of Izzy that Epi4Dogs was started... she was the inspiration. May her legacy of helping others with EPI continue for as long as needed.........

WHEW! Thanks, Olesia. Of course the main concern is that Diane stays healthy for her family, but with so many of us dependent on her for her generosity & ingenuity, I'd say we are definitely in the first half of the line! I was just today thinking how I should order enzymes and Tylan, for insurance over the holidays. On top of that, my motley crew of five will all be needing a refill of their Revolution, and if those enzymes were coming from the vet this expense would be in a whole other league. I can't say it enough, Diane has really changed this whole EPI thing for us, and when I think of what I am thankful for, she and this wonderful group will be right there on that list.----Pam & Tucker
