My dog got hit by a car

[Dancing Doctor]

We rushed her to the emergency pet hospital in Berkeley, and they took her right in.

The doctor on duty said that she was "shocky, but stable". They're doing some X-rays and said they'd call us when they had the results.

The bill will at least be $1150, and could be up to about $1300.

All my warmest wishes to the recovery and health of your furry friend, Valeris. Hopefully a way can be made for you to afford payment for the work that is being done.

 

[gturner]

Hugs and prayers for her!

 

[Cornholio]

damn, that sucks. I hope your dog has a speedy recovery and is back on all fours soon!

My aunt paid for it, but we owe money to them already...

*sigh*

It seems like ever since about 2005 or so, money problems have amplified.

Hugs and prayers for her!

I started conversing with God while I was waiting, which I haven't done in quite a while.

Me too.

Well then, my warmest thoughts to you, and a hope that a viable financial solution for your own problems presents itself.

My nightmare! Your poor dog and poor you... must be a shock! I hope she gets well soon again and greets you happily barking and tale-wacking.

Sucks to hear it, man.

 

[Kestra]

Stable sounds promising. Hope everything turns out okay! Sending good wishes your way.

 

[Rek]

Poor dog. Best of luck to you and your pet. And I have to say...vets charge pretty crappy prices just because they can.

 

[Cornholio]

^same goes for human doctors too.

I started conversing with God while I was waiting, which I haven't done in quite a while.

it's never a bad idea to talk with God. He's always there.

 

[Dancing Doctor]

I just got off the phone with the emergency pet hospital. She's fine!

The worst thing wrong with her was a deflated lung, but it didn't need to be medically managed. She'll need rest in the coming days, but we're going to pick her up early tomorrow morning.

I feel so relieved right now.

 

[KimMH]

I'm glad your dog in on it's way to recovery.

Maybe your conversation wasn't in vain. . .

 

[gturner]

Hmm.... Is that what "getting the wind knocked out of you" actually means?

Does she get to eat bacon flavored ice cream for a couple of days?

I tell ya, it's given me a lot more to think about.

I'm not sure. The doctor said it was a pneumothorax, and it does commonly occur after physical trauma or blast injuries to the chest.

And she'll be getting more treats from me, that's for sure.

 

[Gil T.Azell]

Glad things are looking up for her.
I know what you're going through, something similar happened to me years ago, but the out come was not good for my dog.
Continued good thoughts for you and your dog.

 

[Thena]

So glad your dog is going to be okay!

 

[Dancing Doctor]

I'm having trouble sleeping because I'm both excited and anxious to see her in a couple of hours.

Having lost two cats to the road outside my house I can sympathise. I hope she recovers quickly, Valeris.
