    Oh dear. My thoughts are surely with you and Taz. Do you have any idea how much the surgery will cost? Please give him some lovies from me. I do hope that the surgery helps him feel better and live a long and fulfilling life!

    Thanks Moesha. The surgery plus the things they did yesterday total over $4000. But I qualified for the CareCredit so I will make monthly payments. Whew! If I pay it within a certain period it is interest free. I don't know the details about the payments until after his surgery. And I will not be telling the BF how much it is either. He doesn't need to know, he's not paying for it.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Still, give a shout out if you want some $$ help. If I remember correctly, Care Credit is interest free if you pay it off within 3 months.

    If BF or parents ask, you don't have to tell them the amount, but just say if they'd like to chip in a bit, that would be great. Just a suggestion. (And you may want to tell your vet AND the desk staff that NO ONE gets the cost amount but YOU, PERSONALLY...in case someone else phones. )

    Yes, the paperwork shows the amounts per month and it's interest free if paid off within 3 or 6 months. I guess I find out the details after the surgery. But I'll probably have to go the interest route, which isn't too bad.
    Thanks for the offer, Candace, I think I'll be able to do it myself though. Slowly but surely. The CareCredit is a wonderful help.

    I'm not that worried about anyone finding out the amount. And I know nobody will call to find out.

    Taz's surgery is scheduled for next Thursday. And he will have to stay overnight. That's going to be a rough night for me.

    PT Prayers for Taz...after several days on painkillers, I am sure he will feel MUCH better!

    Give him some hugs for me.
