Urgent help needed for Yorkshire Terrier Tahoe's Web site donated by Renee Permission to Cross post and Forward _www.naespalaceofpets.net_ (http://www.naespalaceofpets.net/) This little Yorkie was born 6/1/05 and was a happy healthy Fur-baby....

Mom rushed him to their Vet. and he was gave some medication and bed rest. Mom was worried because he had not made any improvements. She returned several times to her Vet and then was referred to DVM Georgina Barone There concerns being Tahoe may have Atlantoaxial Instability or spinal cord injury. Dr. Georgina Barone is a Neurosurgeon at a specialist center in Long Island NY. She is board certified in neurosurgery. Dr Barone advised Kasia (fur-mom) that he has to have a MRI to find the extent of Tahoe's injuries. In addition indicting there was a very good chance he would need surgery. Kasia was told she would need 1,900.00 dollars at the next visit. She has spent over 1,000.00 to this date between her referring Vet and this specialist. She just doesn't have the funds at this time for the much needed MRI. With being turned down for Care Credit as her last hope for funding. Kasia has some possible organizations that may be able to help her once she has confirmed diagnoses for Tahoe. With out the diagnoses she is at a stand still. We list Mom's on congenital group contacted the hospital and have made arrangements for them to take donations in Tahoe's behalf. They have told us that Tahoe is classified in serious condition and this MRI is needed right away. Tahoe has made some minor improving being he can lift his head up but still can not walk. With spinal cord compression or injury everyday is critical the longer the less odds are in repairing. In addition to respiratory failure if the trauma to spinal cord is as they expect. The hospital has agreed to take 1,500.00 for the MRI. With getting him the care needed as timely as possible can make all the difference in the world. Most important saving him from death do to respiratory failure from the spinal compression, and the timely repair making the difference if he will walk again. I think if some Fur-friends could help this mom with MRI it could make all the difference.. even small donations will help.
