Pray for a miracle

We had a nice weekend, and yet, I can't believe how it ended and how the new week begin. Our beloved sweet dog Cinder, started having what looked liked cramps on Saturday, she cried and cried for long periods of time....then she was better again......so we decided to call a vet and take her in to check her out.
While in the waiting room, she had one of her attacks, the doctor came in and started examining her, and decided to X-Ray her neck.....well, it doesn't look good at all....she needs an operation for calcium deposit in one of the discs in her neck.
The problem we are facing - Watch Cinder live in pain for the rest of her life, pay for a $2.000 surgery or put her to sleep. The first two options are next to impossible, we can't stand when she cries in so much pain, and this kind of money would mean it goes into our credit card debt, with no promises the surgery would work.....
The doctor said in some cases, pain killers and anti-inflammatory will fix it, but he wasn't very positive about her case at all. So, I am asking for a miracle, if the Lord would allow us to have her a little longer time He can fix her.
We are very sad at our house, she has been with us since Anna was five years old. She is a most loving dog, such a loyal little friend. The doctor wants to try the medications for about 8 days and see how she responds to it. We covet your prayers for next 8 days.
Thank you for agreeing in prayer with us.
Love and prayers,
Katia

Sorry to hear about Cinder. I know how hard it is to see her in pain. We lost a pup a few months ago.

I'll be praying for all of you.
Blessings,
Robin
