Bad news....I'm scared. Larry's surgery/MBD

For those of you following Larry's problems, here's the update. For
those not familiar on Larry, I can't repeat everything so just search
for Larry and you'll know.

We made it thru the weekend, no eggs.....she is fading.....losing
weight but the scale said she gained weight....took her in today, and
she was xray'd again.

The xray showed two things: her uterus is abnoramally big at the
moment, eggs are still there, but not enough to warrant how big her
uterus looks.

2nd: She's getting MBD.....there was nothing(other than her bad leg)
in the first 2 xrays, but now its in her upper arms.

The vet is going to do a surgery(I can't begin to spell it) where he
opens her up a bit and takes an internal look at what's going on.
He's then going to call me and tell me what he found, and if it will
help, she will get a "hysterectomy". If it's not gonna help then I
don't know what's going to happen.

So basically I get to sit here bawling, waiting for the phone call.

Chris who is as scared as she was when my real daughter went into
surgery

I'm sorry to hear that Larry hasn't been doing well...

I can totally imagine the stress you are going through waiting for news from the vet... It can be sooo long sometimes and feel like forever...

My thought are with you folks and Larry, hoping she will come out well and healthy again.
