Help Anissa Midyett to raise fund towards medical care for Elsa.
Friday night when the front door opened for someone to go outside, Elsa ran out of the house. All of us immediately went outside to try to catch her and bring her back home safely. While in the process she ran towards the main road, and was struck by a truck. We quickly got her picked up and taken to the nearest emergency vet hospital.

Elsa's heart rate and blood pressure were stable, but she could not stand up at all, or move her legs. We were told a few options, but the first thing to do was an x-ray of her spine to check for any broken vertebrae. No obvious fractures were seen, however she has a pneumothorax. The next option suggested was to send her to get a CT and/or MRI. However with the costs required for those and the outcomes not being so well we chose not to do that yet. We admitted her to the hospital, and she is currently receiving pain medication, iv fluids, and other medications. We are hopeful that the cause is just inflammation and once it subsides she will be able to stand. The doctor removed air from her chest overnight. She is stable this morning.
Our options moving forward are to keep her at the hospital, with estimated cost around $500/day. So she can receive the care needed, and hopefully make a full recovery. Or send her to get more diagnostic tests done, and find out exactly what the problem is. Which the estimated cost for that is in the thousands. Or we can bring her home and attempt to nurse her back to health on our own. The last and final decision we will have to make if she doesn't improve, is one that none of us in my family want to make. And we are hopeful we will not have to make that decision.
