Members One Man Banned Posted December 19, 2012 Members Share Posted December 19, 2012 Friends,Please send positive thoughts our way for my little man Jackson. He has a couple of herniated disks and is likely to have to go in for surgery. The neurologist recommended it but she's going to do an MRI to make extra sure he needs it first. If he does he'll be having it done today. He has a heart murmur so we're always concerned when he has to be put under for anything, but the doctor says this is his best option for a full recovery. If we wait it out and see he could permanently lose the use of his hind legs.The surgery is expensive...about $5500-$8500. The good news is we were able to get our pet emergency card limit raised to cover the cost, but...well...it's still a lot of money.Not a lot of good news today unfortunately (got a cold...just found out my main band is breaking up because our singer/bassist is giving up on music) but this is definitely the worst. Please keep Jackson in your thoughts today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Dr.Picklebottom Posted December 19, 2012 Members Share Posted December 19, 2012 thats horrible, im sorry to hear that. (i dont want to sound like a heartless asshole, its just the way my brain works) id ask about the liklihood of it being a successful surgery. my parents vet offered to do some $5k procedure after their cat was in an accident and i casually, out of nervousness or something, asked that and without even hesitating they responded that the cat would probably die. i hope things turn out well for you.

Members One Man Banned Posted December 20, 2012 Author Members Share Posted December 20, 2012 Thanks for the kind words and well wishes, gang. Jackson had his surgery yesterday and it was a success. He'll be at the animal hospital for a couple of days but they say everything went well and expect him to make a full recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
