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.

Are you serious? If you broke your leg would you just put it in a splint and hope it healed right? The splint is just to stabilize his leg until it can be set correctly! He needs to have the surgery if that's what your vet recommended!
