The actually worst part is that as this progresses, his internal organs will freeze up also...mainly his diaphram which will cause him to suffocate...slowly. He is in advanced stages, was born with it and although they advised surgery, he will only have a less than 70 percent chance. Complications include death of course. I cannot afford surgery and have applied everywhere for assistance for this surgery. Have even put it on several "Wish" sites in hopes that someone with a little money could donate for his surgery. Doesn't have to be money, even finding a surgeon to do it for free would be awesome. Running out of time though. Any suggestions would be great???

Yes, turn him over to a Reputable Rescue Organization. ASAP
