Bumble Having A 7th Operation - Hernia Repair!

[TAN]

So poor old Bumble had a bulge where he shouldn't have ( 2 weeks ago he also had a bulge where he shouldn't have - one of his testicles had retracted into the abdomen and refused to come down again) - but this was different - he has had so many operations that his abdominal wall has weakened and his bladder is now made up of mostly scar tissue and he now has a hernia - this was always a possibility, so I spent all of last night crying thinking he would have to be put to sleep and I had to wait until this evening until Rachel came on duty and could examine him for me - when I asked if it was the end of the road for him she just laughed and said not yet "I am going to operate on him in the morning" - a small incision to the side and she will put some mesh in as the tissue is probably too weak stitch - she didn't have any operating time left tonight to do it as she had to perform emergency surgery on a sugar glider and a snake .

Good grief, but sounds as if Rachel has a good plan so hang onto that. The mesh stuff is clever kit. And u will be slick at post op care by now! But worrying times for u. Come on Bumble.

Dear all - my baby lion came through the op and was up and about eating,but later on when he was checked on, it was found that the abdominal wall just couldn't hold - Rachel went in again,but due to the number of previous surgeries and the amount of scar tissue and adhesion's ,there was not much she else she could do - she did do another repair but she could not revive him -
I have buried him in between my first piggy Noodles and his wife Bee who passed two months ago - It still hasn't sunk in and I can't accept that he has gone yet.

So sorry the operation wasn't successful. But Bumble must have been a fighter to go through so many. It is such a sad time for you but try and accept It was his time to go. RIP little Bumble.

You tried your very best for him and he no doubt appreciated it very much.
He sounds like he was an amazing piggy, he was a little fighter!
It's amazing that he got that far, but a shame he couldn't quite make it.
Mabey he will reunite with his wife on the rainbow bridge...
RIP bumble.
Love and hugs to you.Xx
