Best wishes for Georgie please

He’s had a rough couple months.

I’ll try to be brief: an eye problem turned out to be caused by an infected tooth root. We got the tooth extracted, but since then he really only eats hay — he won’t touch pellets or greens, and I think he was getting dehydrated.

After an ER visit for the stasis, we were supposed to give him a number of meds plus fluids. Unfortunately, I seem to have dislocated his back right hip when my wife and I were trying to give him fluids last night. :( I feel like complete shit, it’s my fault. I’ve cared for rabbits for over a decade and I shouldn’t have made that kind of rookie mistake.

So he and I have been at the ER for about five hours now, and I think he’ll be getting anesthesia soon so they can try to fix his leg non-surgically. $2k at the ER isn’t exactly what I need just after getting laid off, but it is what it is.

Well wishes are appreciated.
