WELL I WANTED TO GIVE YOU GUYS AN UPDATE: NIPPS HASNT HAD THE SURGERY YET THE DOCTOR WILL BE DOING IT TODAY (2-15-08) SOMETHING CAME UP ON HIS END, ANYWAY THE RECEPTIONIST CALLED ME TODAY TO DISSCUSS AND ARRANGE A PAYMENT PLAN FOR ME....ALL TOGETHER IT WILL COST $715.00 FOR THE SURGERY ( STILL THE LOWEST PRICE OUT THERE WHICH IT DOESNT MATTER WHATEVER IT COST I WILL MAKE SURE IT GETS DONE!! ) WE HAVE ALREADY GIVEN $100 TOWARD THAT ON WEDNESDAY SO HE WILL BE READY SATURDAY AND THEY ASKED IF WE COULD BRING IN AT LEAST $200 TOWARD THE BALANCE WHICH IS DO-ABLE AND THEN THEY HAVE ARRANGED FOR US TO PAY ON THE REMAINING BALANCE WEEKLY AT LEAST $75-100 WHICH IS ALSO DO-ABLE....... PRAISE GOD!!!! THIS VET IS A GOOD DOCTOR AND A GOOD MAN HE HAS BEEN AROUND FOR YEARS I REMEMBER HIM WHEN I WAS A KID SO I FEEL COMFORTABLE ABOUT EVERYTHING, IM JUST NERVOUS THATS ALL BUT AT THE SAME TIME I FEEL SO "BLESSED" BECAUSE THIS MAN IS GOING TO WORK WITH US FINANCIALLLY....CUZ YOU GUYS IVE CALLED AROUND AND GOT OTHER ESTIMATES ETC AND THESE OTHER PLACES WANT AT LEAST 75% OF THEIR BILL UP FRONT !!! SO THIS WORKS OUT BETTER FOR ALL OF US INVOLVED, I JUST WANT TO "THANK YOU" FOR ALL OF YOUR BEAUTIFUL PICTURES, KIND WORDS, AND THOUGHTFUL PRAYERS. PLEASE CONTINUE TO KEEP US ALL IN YOUR PRAYERS.....MY SON DAIREUS IS HAVING A VERY HARD TIME WITH THIS HE IS TRYING TO BE A BIG BOY & BE TOUGH ( HE IS 9 ABOUT TO TURN 10 IN MARCH ) BUT OUT OF MY 3 KIDS HE IS MY MOST SENSITIVE CHILD...HE IS VERY AFFECTIONATE, HE TRULY CARES ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE HE IS ALWAYS GOING OUT OF HIS WAY TO HELP, AND HE WEARS HIS EMOTIONS ON HIS SLEEVE YOU CAN ALWAYS TELL WHAT HE IS FEELING BY LOOKING AT HIM ( MY DAUGHTER ON THE OTHER HAND IS A VERY DIFFERENT STORY..LOL ) DAIREUS IS A GOOD KID TYPICAL BOY LOVES WWE WRESTLING, CARS AND VIDEO GAMES AND I KNOW WITH GOD'S HELP, LOVE AND GUIDANCE HE WILL GROW UP TO BE A GOOD MAN TOO. DAIREUS IS VERY SAD RIGHT NOW I HAVE TALKED TO HIM OVER AND OVER ABOUT WHAT WILL HAPPEN AND HOW NIPPS WILL NEED TO HEAL, AND I HAVE TRIED TO COMFORT HIM AS BEST I CAN HE TRIES TO BE STRONG BUT HE HAS CRIED ALOT BECAUSE HE IS WORRIED ABOUT NIPPS ( WE ALL ARE ) LIKE I MENTIONED BEFORE WE HAVENT HAD GOOD LUCK WITH SOME OF OUR PETS......SO I JUST ASK YOU TO CONTINUE TO LIFT US UP IN PRAYER ESPECIALLY NIPPS AND DAIREUS....IT IS WEIRD WE ARE ALL MISSING NIPPS HE HAS NEVER BEEN AWAY FROM HOME SO EVEN OUR OTHER TWO CATS, HIS MOTHER SASSY AND HIS SISTER JUNIE ARE LOOKING AROUND THE APARTMENT FOR HIM..LOL !!!

IT LOOKED LIKE THEY MIGHT HAVE NICKED HER WITH THE RAZOR...AND NOW ITS SCABBED OVER AT THE TOP BUT RAW AROUND THE SIDES. I TOOK HER BACK TO THIS PLACE TO GET THINGS STRAIGHTENED OUT AND HAVE THEM LOOK AT HER. THEY TRIED TO TELL ME THEY THOUGHT IT WAS A SPIDER BITE OR AN ABCESS "NOT REALTED TO THE SURGERY"...YEA RIGHT IM FUMING RIGHT NOW !!!! WE TOOK HER IN TO OUR NORMAL VET, DR SWOOP ( THE DOCOTR THAT DID NIPPS SURGERY) AND HE IS GOIN TO CLEAN AND DEBRIDE THE WOUND TO SEE WHAT IT IS....SO HE KEPT HER OVERNIGHT, WE WILL FIND OUT TOMORROW WHAT IS GOING ON WITH JUNIE. PLEASE PRAY FOR OUR CAT JUNIE...ALTHOUGH SHE WAS BEING REALLY MEAN TO HER BROTHER NIPPS AFTER HIS SURGERY I DONT WANT ANYTHING TO HAPPEN TO THE LIL RASCAL...LOL..WE LOVE HER.
