Molly’s ruptured the disc between her L4 and L5 vertebrae. She’s staying overnight at our vet, on a good bit of morphine, a large single dose of steroids, and IV antibiotics to try to stave off the immunosuppressive effects of the steroids. This is pretty much a one shot deal. Will know more tomorrow morning. Religious or not, your prayers are appreciated.
