HELP my Mom save Rocky

Donation protected
Those who know my Mom know that her "baby" Rocky is a 83.5 pound chocolate lab. I truly believe he has saved my Moms life in more ways then one. (It's our turn to save his life) I have never seen such a loveable 83.5 pound lap dog!! Now he would never jump in your lap but if you sit on the ground he is begging you to love on him. I have always called him my brother because that's just what he is. Last week on January 4th he was outside with his Daddy and playing with the next door neighbors dog which happens to be his "real" brother. They came from the same litter actually! They play pretty much everyday. Well while Rocky's Dad (Phil) was tending to the grill he heard Rocky yelping. Apparently he and his brother, Max, collided. (The neighbors saw it happen!) He immediately went over and checked on Rocky and had him get up and walk to the back door. He could tell he was hurting and favoring his left leg. When Rocky got to the deck Phil had to help him get up the two stairs and let him inside. That night my Mom stayed with him downstairs until midnight. When she woke up she saw he was in his bed that lays next to their bed. She also noticed that he had lost his bowels on the stairs from pushing himself so much to make it upstairs. Things have only gotten worse. Rocky can not walk at all on his hind legs. So here we are. Rocky needs an MRI before we can make any decision!!!! Well no one in our area does a MRI for any pet his size. I love Rocky but that's NOTHING to the amount of love that my Mom and Phil have for him. For four years they have loved this big teddy bear. And they want to have the MRI done so they can make a decision that they're both comfortable making. The MRI will give us an answer to wether he needs surgery, if time will help heal him and if the ultimate decision has to be made (which we pray it doesn't come to this.). They already have used the Care Credit they were approved for. They tried getting the amount increased but they couldn't. We can't thank you enough for taking the time to read this. EVERY penny counts! And if you do not have the funds to donate (we understand!) please share!! Even if you just happened stumbled upon this and don't know any of us, it will mean so much if you share!!

And please pray for Rocky, my Mom and Phil.
