I Try To Be Strong But I Have My Weak Moments

Sitting in the vet clinic with my little Marilyn. They just took her back for xrays. Something with a disc and they said it wasnt good. I cant stop crying, please let my baby be okay...

How'd it go???

he said its like a slipped disc but in several areas, starting at her neck down to mid back. He is going to try steroids and pain meds to see if that will help but he thinks she will need surgery to correct it. Right now we are concentrating on her pain. It is so sad to watch her like this. We also found out thru x-rays that she is older than we thought. She was a rescue dog and when I first took her in the vet thought she was between 2 and 4, now he says more like 7.

I'm guessing dexamethizone and rymadyl. Should relieve the pain pretty quick!!!

She still yelps when she moves a certain way, Im hoping after the next dose, she will be more comfortable
