OMG!!!!!!! I am just seeing this thread! I have been swamped at work and home and not been able to really look at all threads! Poor, poor miles and Gina. It sounds likae you have been through so much.

I am glad that you have been approved by IMOM, and that Miles will soon get to have his surgery. I know it will be a long couple of days for all of you in your ARK! But there is so much love and tenderness that you will all be fine.

I am reassured that the amputation will be best, although I have absolutely NO experience with that. I know that those on here have so much advice (all good!) to share.

I wish I could be there to help and give you a hug. I know I always need one when I have been through something as traumatic! Hang in there. Give Miles a kissie know that you are in the thoughts and prayers of me and my girls!

I will keep watching this post all weekend and hope to see more updates.

okay, it was a pretty long discussion and we just got back.

I spoke with miles' vet (and deaf vet as well too) - they both still want monday surgeon's feedbacks. miles' vet is quite not positive that the pin would be the fix too. I also asked what would they do if miles were theirs - one says amputation and one is not sure and would may stick to specialist's opinion.

so... sigh, my decision's still more likely leaning to amputation but who knows I realize pin/plate would be best option. doubtfully?

at least I have extra metacom (advil the like) & buprenex (morphine) for miles until tuesday and got home to him relaxing, streeetched out only half of his front body (too funny to see) and most importantly, turned on his little rusty engine! aww..

lizzie, thank you for showing your friend - by the way, in that picture, that's my entire ark! or did you not think miles wasn't missing?

allright, going to read your PMs now, it's full - yikes - miles would need that inbox to zero!

first, I can not thank you all enough for being here with us and sharing hugs! I'll be sure to shower miles (gently) with all of your kisses & scrigges.

miles says, thank meowu too!

I thought you had a dog also, or is he considered non-Ark? I'm still very new and getting everyone's animal companions sorted out.

You will probably find that after a few nights' sleep, the best decision on Miles will be bright and clear in your mind. I'm inclined to think that unless I've spent my last dime on a cat's treatment, I haven't done the right thing - but that's not always the case as many here are saying.

Crayola, the golden retreiver, is Gina's official Service Dog, so probably doesn't count as an Ark inhabitant, more as Gina's partner!

Gina, be very careful with the Metacam, it has to be dosed very precisely.

My Malfi had his broken leg, and unfortunately, they were never able to 'set' it due to the infection on his skin. Just keep Miles comfortable and he'll be o.k. till he sees the Docs.

Singing our Meezer hearts out for Miles.

of course crayola is part of my lovely ark! lizzie, now think am confused of which picture you used. . . did you used the first one or second. I know you said "on couch together" but in second one, crayola is in.

rosethecopycat, he is finished with it anyway. buprenex is stronger one, but it seems is affecting miles.

just had my new better update made here and thanks again deerly everyone!
