The vet visit didn't go well, not looking good. M.E. is "beyond devasted" needless to day.
Very very sad news.

Sorry, I had to stick my head in a bucket of cold water toventure out in public and get bunny food.
I dont' think M.E. wants to keep it a secret, she's just not up to posting.She was on such a high with the head tilt going away, this wasa crushing blow.
Here's her PM: :cry1:
(And now that I'm re-reading it, maybe there's hope -- hope that there's no infection, the ear thing is just an anomaly and she'll be around for awhile yet).ray:

Her molar roots are growing downward into the jaw. The solution would be to put her under anethesia and file them down to the gums...but she has a cardiac arrythmia (possibly from age, or infection). Her chances of making it through the anethesia are pretty slim :cry1: On top of that her left inner ear is significantly enlarged (we could see it on the x-rays). No bacteria in her outer ear and no idea what's causing it.
She'd have to spend a significant amount of time at Angell Memorial in Boston, undergoing tests and procedures that may ultimately be unsuccesful. I can't do that to her. I mean, I can't quite explain it, but I know that she doesn't want that She'd be alone, surrounded by strange people and without Rex.
But that leaves only one choice - to love her until she says 'no more'. I feel it's the right decision...and it's breaking my heart :cry2

Oh God. How well I know that feeling from GingerSpice. That is a horrible place to be in....
The upside of it is that she has time to prepare for Peanut's death. There is a sense of peace almost in that.....of being able to say goodbye.
But every day is so scary....what if it is today? what if she has issues? When will I know?
I wish I could help her....I'll wait for her to post.

Peg, you said that wonderfully. I, too, "knew ahead of time" with Bun Bun, still, it is just so hard. Just as it is anyway.
I feel so badly for her...I thought we had a miracle:?

It's really sad. I absolutely adore that rabbit and Rex. They were some of the first ones I met when I came here.
