wish Ignatz luck

[ratcreature]

I'm just back from dropping my poor rat Ignatz off with the vet, and he'll be operated on in a couple of hours, sometime around noon, so if any of you can spare him some good wishes, he could really use them. He's fairly old for a rat and the tumor/abscess/growth/whatever it'll turn out to be is largish (though it didn't grow much since last week) and in a tricky spot being right on his vulnerable throat (or maybe his thyroid if it's a tumor). They'll call me around four in the afternoon to tell me how it went, and if all goes well I can bring him back home late this afternoon. Meanwhile Emil is still sleeping and hasn't noticed yet that I didn't bring his brother with me when I came back. I really hope all will go well. *is a nervous wreck*

Let us know! Hang in there.

Thank you.

Thanks. I should know soon. They haven't called yet, but I hope that's a good sign that nothing unexpected happened.

Thank you. He made it through the operation okay, and while the news isn't all good (it was indeed a tumor and thus harder to operate than a mere abscess, and he lost quite a bit of blood), he's home for now.

I hope he comes out okay!

[ratcreature]

Thanks. The surgery went okay, and while the news isn't all good (it was indeed a tumor and thus harder to operate than a mere abscess, and he lost quite a bit of blood), he's home now.

[ratcreature]

Thank you! He's home now and got through the surgery, though it was unfortunately a tumor and he lost quite a bit of blood. But I hope he'll recover, and that having this operated will turn out a good choice that will buy him the most time.

[ratcreature]

Thank you. He's home now and got through okay, though it was unfortunately a tumor and connected to the surrounding tissue so he lost quite a bit of blood. But I hope he'll recover.
