Pters are throwing for her! I'm sure Carla would be so happy to get some encouragement during this trying time for her. Long story short, Carla's had two spinal fusions, the last being in Oct. when they went through her stomach and fused her spine. She has developed problems with scarring, and blockage of her intestines, and went through emergency surgery last Friday. It may need to be done again if things don't start looking up for her. If anyone would like to drop a card or a note in the mail for her, PM either Jazzcat, or me for Carla's address. And say a little prayer that she will be out soon, and back home with her furfamily, and Mike.
