Posted: Wed Aug 27, 2008 5:39 pm Post subject: Bear update |
|
|
Just back from vets. Bear has been kept in overnight and will get x-ray tomorrow. His whole leg, shoulder and neck are swollen today. They are now talking about bone cancer, bone tumors, infection, heart/liver/lymph problems instead of pulled muscle due to trip or fall. He is on a drip, has a catheter in and may need op depending on what they find.
Also just and no more fits in cage at vet so can't lie flat out as he would normally so I feel so guilty about that as well as panicking about him. No stretcher big enough for him at vets either so he was carried/hobbled in with 4 people holding him up in a sling. Took 4 of us to get him in and out of car.
Big guy is in quite a bad way at minute but fingers crossed will get good news tomorrow and will update as i know more! |

You must be worried sick, I hope you and Bear get better news when the Vet has a more in depth look at him. Let us know how he gets on. Poor lamb. |
