    No update yet?? Oh dear. I'm off for the day. I'll just have to check for updates when I'm over at my brother's on Sunday night.

    Praying that everything's OK Naomi!!

    Sorry for the long delay! Yesterday I had my graduation ceremony and today I took Bassett for her cosultation. I haven't had time to check in until right now, I just walked in the door!

    The consult went very well. The surgeon thinks that Bassett is a great candidate for surgery, and she has no concerns at all that Bassett will pull through. The success of the surgery is kind of a wait and see thing. I really liked her and I really feel like she is very competant. She also said that if I am going to go ahead with this, she wants to do it within the next couple of weeks. So, I hope to have made a final decision by monday.

    Bassett did very well with the trip, considering the weather. It's very warm here and she was so hot, but she's such a little trooper. I just wiped her down with a cool towel, and if that doesn't work, I'll give her a bath tonight.

    Anyway, I haven't gone over my notes for the consult yet, so I can't really say any more until I get it all straight in my head. I just didn't want to leave you hanging anymore I will post either late tonight or tomorrow with more information. For right now, Bassett is just happy she's home!

    Naomi, I'm glad the visit to the vet (surgeon) went well. It's so important that it's someone you like and trust.

    Thanks for taking time to post. Get some rest over the weekend and hopefully you'll be able to decide what's best for Bassett.

    Hugs to you and kisses to Bassett!

    I just took Bassett to the emergency vet. She was open mouth breathing. If I can find the money to do this surgery, I'm going to go for it. She needs it. I can't keep having her tapped every three days.

    I just don't know what to do for the cost. It's a LOT of money. I need a 50% deposit, and the estimate was $4750. Where am I going to find money like that? Luckily, I can pay the remaining balance over three months. I told her that I JUST graduated and had not yet found work, and so once the deposit is paid, I have three months to come up with the rest. Sigh. It's so much money, but Bassett really needs this porcedure. Please pray that the answers will somehow become clear to me

    OK this may be just a little unorthadox, but at the risk of making people angry.............here goes:

    At least 30 people answered this thread. And I know for a fact that there are probably at least 20 MORE people on Pet Talk (if not more) who would also be interested.

    If each one of us could afford to send Naomi $25 she'd have half of the amount that she needs for a deposit.

    I WILL be willing to help.

    Who else is with me????????????????

    (for those not financially able, do NOT feel embarrased or pressured)

    EDIT: $25 is just a number I chose to use, it is not mandatory
