Surprised Vet’s Decision

Dr. Lane looked genuinely surprised by what the X-ray revealed. “We’ll have to do a CT scan to get a clear understanding,” she said firmly, her decision already made. The seriousness in her voice deepened my concern, and as I watched her begin making the necessary arrangements, I became acutely aware of how much I was depending on her expertise to navigate this unsettling turn of events. My eyes followed her with a mix of anticipation and anxiety, silently hoping for the best possible outcome for Max.

Signing Consent Forms

The staff brought over consent forms, walking me through the CT scan procedure once again. I read each line carefully before signing, every stroke of the pen a quiet promise to do whatever it took to uncover what was wrong with Max. “This should clear things up,” the technician said with a reassuring nod as I handed the forms back. Though still anxious, I felt a bit more prepared for whatever the scan might reveal, clinging to the hope that it would finally bring us some peace of mind.
