Bweh.
Smooch needs bladder surgery to remove those stones. I hate to put him through it but as it stands, he's at risk of a blockage, and that could be life-threatening. So the tentative plan is to call on Monday and get an estimate, schedule the surgery, and we pay for half with cash and half with Care Credit. Thanks to the fundraising I did last year, that ought to be within reach.
He has a bad case of cystitis and a UTI, which I took him to the vet for yesterday. It's too soon for him to be feeling much better, which means he's still loafing around and looking pitiful and I'm worried as heck and it sucks. It absolutely sucks.
I love him, even if he's a big whiny jerk.
*I* am going to the vet myself in the next couple of weeks to talk to a cardiologist about some stuff that's been worrying me. It's not likely serious, but I'm also not happy about it. I want answers, but I also just don't want to deal with having to potentially housebreak a new doctor out of giving me shit about my weight.
I'm just . . . not in a great place the past few days. I'm very, very anxious about the future.
