Sad 2.8 lb Yorkie Broke his Ulna & Radius in Left leg

Hello Yorkie Lovers,
Today my almost 3 pound boy fell off the bed wrong and sure enough we took him to the vet and he broke his distal radius and ulna in his front left leg. We cannot get him into see the surgeon until Monday. Basically, I was curious to see if this has happened to anyone else and what they did for it. I am worried about the surgery because how little he is. Like even getting his fixed was worrisome because of his weight. Right now, until monday, my poor baby is just doped up on pain meds with a splint in it and he cannot move. I feel so bad as it is my fault why he fell awkwards. Also, if he does have to get surgery, what are payment options? I am a college student, so funds are not that great. We are hoping to just keep in him the splint possibly and let it heal that way. Has anyone ever done that? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Lauren, Greysen, and Ella
