Boomer survived through the high-risk surgery and is now in the recovery stage. Thank you all for your thoughts, prayers, and kind words. We all have appreciated the support. Just keep thinking and praying, he's still not out of the woods yet, unfortunately... it's a game of wait and see from here. Again, thank you all!

There *is* a chance that he will come out alive and that he'll have a whole new lease on life if he survives... so if you're the praying kind, we can use all the prayers we can get. Keep him and my family in your thoughts... thank you all for your support and love.

This happened the evening of Friday, July 2nd. He was taken to the vet, and now all that can be done for him is simple nursing care. He has not made any progress since and is in immense pain.
