It’s an obstruction. It’s something the surgeon can’t define, and we are desperately waiting to hear from a soft tissue specialist to review his case if they will even TRY to save him.
May be a towel? Did he eat the towel because he was starving? Are there other things in there? It’s intertwined in his bowels. How long has it been in there? Is he septic? Can he make the trip 3 hours to the specialist, or is there a specialist there that is willing to do it? Can it wait until tomorrow? Will he survive?
The only thing I know in my soul is miracles never happen if we don’t give God a chance to let them. If a surgeon is willing, how do we not try? And if they open him up and they aren’t able to save him or his future would be horrific, he can peacefully let go on the table knowing every single possible chance was given and only God could heal his pain.
Humans failed him.
Humans left him like this.
Humans neglected him in life and at a shelter.
I just pray there is a qualified surgeon who believes he has a chance to try. We won’t put him through a surgery if there is no hope… but then again… How do we define hope?
We are waiting to hear from two amazing surgeons’ opinions. As soon as we know, we’ll share. Please just keep praying. Prayers move mountains. He needs a mountain.
