<human>: We adopted a rescue a year ago. Two days ago, we noticed he had trouble using his hind legs. We immediately took him to the vet, who determined it was a ruptured spinal disc.

He underwent emergency surgery. It cost $9000. I paid it.

The neurologist said the surgery went well but would keep him under observation at the pet hospital. Today we get a call saying things have taken a turn for the worse and he's no longer using his hind legs at all.

They're going to do CT scans to see if he needs more surgery. The thing is, I'm wiped clean. I can't afford another $9000. But as I understand, he's also in pain. If I opt out, he's going to be miserable and immobile(ish).

He's part daschund, so he probably has intervertebral disc disease. This might affect another disc as time goes on.

What should I do?
