Bladder Stone Removal

My mom has rescued this horse. When she first got him he was skin and bones and had abscesses literally coming out the top of his hooves. He had been left in a stall to fend for himself. Now, a little over a year later he is in great condition, his hooves are on the way to being strong and sturdy, he has shoes on to help correct the damage that was done, he gets chiro, massage, and best of all, he’s happy and loved. Now recently, he’s been diagnosed with having a 2” bladder stone that needs to be removed. The only way to remove it is with surgery. That surgery is quite costly so while we are trying to sell tack, and save money, any help we can get would be greatly appreciated! The surgery is going to cost about $4500 and even if we can raise half of that, any bit helps. My mom loves this horse so much and has helped him through so much, she doesn’t want to lose him due to not affording this surgery.
