[Gpdd] [HEALTH] Flick has bladder stones

[sherry bevins]

Greetings to our friends at GPDD,

We hope that you are all doing well and enjoying your summer. We don't enjoy 
going outside so much any more, as it is SO HOT out there! Anyway, we have a 
request...please send some healing thoughts our way...our Flick went to the 
vet on Monday and was found to have a UTI and two small bladder stones. Our 
vet thinks that he may be able to pass them on his own, or that they may 
dissolve as we get his bladder infection cleared up. He will be x-rayed 
again in about thirty days to see if there has been any change. We are 
hoping that surgery will not be necessary. The only experience we have had 
with bladder stones is when our Cinnamon had them, and his was so large that 
he had to have surgery. The difference is that Cinnamon was only one and a 
half years old at the time, and Flick is almost four. We are really very 
worried about him. Please, if anyone has had a similar experience and been 
successful in having the stones dissolve, we would love to hear from you. 
Any advice at all would be most welcome, and we send many thanks in advance.

Warmly,
Sherry, Flick, and 13 concerned piggie pals
