Oh god, so much worse.
Jan. 31st, 2012 12:38 pmI took the dog to the surgery center today, after a merry run-around trying to find it.
She hasn't had the surgery. Because it's going to be $2,500 at minimum. That's the estimate.
Also, she has a highly elevated white blood count. She's got a growth on her gum, which she's had before and it was biopsied and found to be benign. But the surgeon is worried.
So, maybe she also has cancer. We don't know.
Also, I am instructed to buy a crate-she is not supposed to walk until the surgery and then not for six weeks *after*. Oh my god. Remember, this is a dog that catches critters and jumps the fence reguarlly. She will hate this.
PayPal button is still open. But I just don't even know when the surgery will be. The money that has come in has reimbursed the existing vet bills, and I thank everyone for that.
Just...fuck.
