Ethel's in Trouble - Again

(Ethel sitting in trash can!)
The vet said that she is not healing correctly. That she either has cellulites, an infection in the underlying fat, or gangrene. That she needs ‘debridement’ at the cost of $300 - $400.

She goes back next week ($45), and will prob need another injection of antibiotic ($$$). If prognosis remains the same, (and it may change, Ethel may get better); I will have to have her put down. I just do not have that kind of money. I do not even have the $45 per week this is running right now – it is coming out of my ‘grocery’ money.
(and bless the 'volunteer' from Sacred Heart Parrish in Ocean Beach, who shuttles Ethel to these appointments)

I am devastated…
