So I have some bad news... today when I was out having fun with my friends and my boyfriend, eating some pretty delicious ice cream, Adam got a phone call from my mother. It seems Baily fell down the back steps and landed on his other hip, for those of you who don't know Baily had surgery on his left hip last year because he fell and dislocated it. Well, he dislocated this one now and we spent most of the afternoon at the Animal Emergency Hospital up in GR (thankfully Alicia took the night for me so I could go).
I'm worried. Mom and dad right now don't have enough money to go through surgery again... and they have been talking a lot about putting him down. I just want to cry everytime they even bring it up. If it were up to me I'd find a way to get him the surgery and make him better. Bad thing is that the doc today said his other hip where he had surgery, instead of making a joint like the surgery was supposed to do the femur and the joint are fusing together... not good. My mom and dad said it would probably be better for him, if he does have to have the FHO surgery, to just put him down because Recovery will be really painful and he already can't walk good with his just one good leg. Now he has two bad legs. I feel SO SO SO bad for him, I just sat and petted him on the way home from the hospital... it's so sad because he was just so laid back and he was the most well behaved dog and he was always so nice. Ugh. Why does this have to happen? Espeically this week, not to be selfish but I won't be doing so hot on my exams now that I have to think about - especially if Tuesday the surgeon tells us it's better for him to not do surgery...
I hate this.
Well I'm going to go - I don't want to think about this anymore...
