Dr. Jerry Muray, DVM:

Thank you for replying to my emails.

Yeas, a fecial test was done and it was neg.

I would like to know one thing about the exploratory surgery. In the Ferrets
very weakened condition what do you think his chances are from the surgery
alone? I don't mind the $400.00 but if he is not going to pull though the surgery
then what is the point? Even if it is something that can be fixed if he dies
then it's all for nothing.

I will be waiting for your reply. He is scheduled for the surgery Tuesday so
if you can please answer before then.

Thank you ever so much for your help Doctor.

Chris
