I suppose the biggest decision is whether surgery would actually prolong his life or make no material difference - and I'm really not sure.
I'm also really concerned about post op care, keeping stitches in tact and infection.
I think I will probably hold off and monitor him for a few weeks. I am just not confident he will survive the surgery and if he does, that he will recover enough to prolong his life (It may also be malignant and surgery isn't really going to help much and indeed he will be restricted and confined for a period of time - which he won't be happy with).
No doubt I'll change my mind another dozen times before I finally decide  |
Good morning, finally what happened to your little friend???
