MOO
it is a story we hear all too often. some farmer has too many piglets and plans to kill those he cannot sell.
up steps miss heather and her husband to take two. when the marriage ended miss heather was not going to allow anything to happen to her babies. she could not keep them with her but a nice home for them was set up on her aunt's farm.
moo started to get fat, even though she had a proper diet. things like worming were done but that did not help. yes, getting help sooner would have been a good idea, but, when you have no idea a pig could get a tumor that just does not occur to you. you had no idea how important a spay could be. you try everything you can think of and then reach out.
it did not take but a second for people to jump to help moo! miss nita did some networking, miss misty contacted mo money for pigs and got up with miss nicole to do the transport.
it was a v-e-r-y hectic day but finally, everything came together! miss heather and miss nicole got moo loaded up and off to lsu.
moo got checked in last night. she was not eating at first which scared us! but, by morning she had settled in and was glad for her breakfast. a treatment plan was formulated and the approval to proceed given. surgery will be tomorrow or wednesday depending on the schedule.
this is very dangerous surgery for a pig of eight years. what else can we do?? it is surgery with the possibility of many years of happiness yet to come, or..................... i cannot bring myself to type that word.
do you think moo deserves a chance? i sure do and i am going to do everything pigingly possible to give that to her! i know times are hard but just a few dollars from each of you can make this happen. the estimate was $2000 but mum thinks that a bit low. she is thinking surgery will take longer than planned. that is a HUGE tumor.
