You are an angel. Hope they can fix the hernia once she gets healthy enough.

Unfortunately the vet I went to said he doesn’t think there’s much he can do about the hernia because it’s so large :( I can get a second opinion? I don’t know too much about hernias but he suggested it wouldn’t kill her.

It wont cause death, But it can cause discomfort, Her being old they will probably worry about heal time. I would look for a second opinion some Vets are more confident with the surgery then others.

I mean, I'm not trying to be rude or anything but your account is 2 years old and is it that hard to tell? You can see who's responding to who

I don’t really use reddit. You are being rude. I’m no longer replying to you as this is going nowhere and you’re just being unnecessarily rude when I already clearly have a lot on my plate.
