CW pet injury ??
No read more because mobile sorry
#my 13yo dog brownie (loml) apparently has a slipped disc??#yesterday she lost some movement in her lower (rear?) extremities and was panting really hard#we called our vet who said it was probably a pulled muscle in her neck??#then we callex the vet hospital (which is an hour away) and they said to bring her in#since the visit fee is the same either way#my dad brother and sister all took her#(i cannot handle vet visits i have panic attacks)#they said it was most likely a slipped disc#but the only way to know is with an mri which is like $2-3k#and if it is then she needs surgery which would be another $4-5k#we dont have that kind of money lol!!!!!#the hospital gave her a methadone shot (the good stuff lmao)#and today we're taking her in to our local vet to see what we can do#maybe a payment plan or s/t#maybe we can find a pet insurance that doesnt care about pre-existing conditions or s/t#i love this dog#i know shes old but her last check up the vet said she was doing fantastic and she didnt even need senior dog food#i hate the idea of her being in pain#if the surgery is going to be a long and difficult recovery process#i dont think i can handle that#but i also dont think i can handle the other option#sis(19) is an absolute mess about it#so naturally im doing my thing of being the strong older sibling#personal#i hate this!!!!!!
