Earl needs stomach surgery
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Jhez. My baby Earl (he’s a scottish fold) is 3 months old, he’s very young but doctors said that he needs surgery. Its been a couple days and he’s currently hospitalized. We’re doing our best to stabilize him but things aren’t looking well. He needs to undergo surgery that would require me to take him to a Critical Care Center.
Even sharing this link will help a lot, I appreciate the time you took to read this!
Update:
Earl had his surgery today (7/26) around noon. Thanks to everyone who has made it possible.
Small update about his health:
We came in initially thinking there was an obstruction in his stomach/ intestines. Did xrays and ultrasounds to verify that but nothing showed up. Doctors treated him with medications to control his vomiting (he was throwing up blood and brown liquid). He didnt respond to the medications and he still wasnt eating since Saturday.
Last resort was the stomach surgery to check whats making him physically weak and extremely lethargic. There was nothing in his stomach/intestines. They proceeded to do an exploratory surgery just incase they missed anything. They found that the GI tract isnt moving at all. (Its the inability of the intestine (bowel) to contract normally and move waste out of the body.)
He’s been on medications for almost a week, has not responded to it, he’s refusing to eat, and he seems to be declining. By tomorrow morning, the doctor said he has to be better. If not, we have to explore other options. I really hope it doesnt get to that.
