Go Fund Titan

Donation protected
Titan is my six year old Lurcher/Saluki cross who is currently with Referrals in Surrey since last Thursday 2nd May 2019 in Surrey, I threw his ball and when he ran something caused his legs to go beneath him, he was unable to get up, understandably the initial impact cause him extreme pain. We rushed him to my local vet who sedated him and unfortunately was unable to treat this type of injury and suggested he was to be referred to a specialist,  apparently after the impact he was then left paralyzed having no feeling in his back legs, feet etc when she examined him. When we arrived they performed an MRI (see photo images) of Titans spine, showing a condensed area where the impact occurred causing a bleed that left my dog paralyzed, this was a non-surgical injury, but still very serious none the less and the prognosis was critical for the next 24 hours, his prognosis after that was dependant on his ability to fight.  In the last couple of days the physio has seen a significant improvement in his right leg, however his left leg is still very weak. He has his catheter removed yesterday and will see in the next coming day how he goes to the toilet, I have not seen him for a week now, missing my shadow but was informed that I had to stay away not encouraging any excitement and to prevent further injury. Titan has the best insurance, but even this insurance caps the fees. His hospital fees a night are £94.50 a night, do to his weight and the additional £54.50 is not covered by my insurance,  he does have a life plan with this being his first injury he will be covered for physio, I was warned that he may not be able to walk properly again and may walk like a drunk (their words) again my insurance caps the hydrotherapy to £250, this treatment and physio will help him have a better outcome and the sessions costs £45 per hour, after the 11th session price drops to 42, if you pay for ten sessions upfront you get the 11th free. Titan deserves a chance to get the best treatment like any loved pet. I was reduced to sedentary hours due to a bad car accident and will have devote the next two months to Titan, this is not an excuse but a reason I am unable to afford the additional billing,  I am asking for whatever you are able to give so that Titan can have the hydrotherapy treadmill along side the physio, I will update you with pictures of Titan during his journey to recovery.   I cannot thank the team in Surrey and the receptionists who have been so supportive during what has been one of the worst weeks of my life, I would do anything right now to hear those toe tapping annoying feet on my floor or when he barks loudly and tries to chase a fly, which with your help,  I  hope he can one day to that again. Thank you in advance xxx
