The splint is a bandaid compared to what she needs, all it does is to stabilize her neck so it does not further impinge on the spinal cord! It has already thus the symptoms, pain, inability to walk, steroids does decreases the inflammation process caused by the damage on the spinal cord.
The pain is there only masked by the pain meds, the damage is occurring and on going, the sooner the better for surgery so there will not be life long neuro deficits! At any time something can go wrong! Affect her respiratory status, STOP her breathing and you won't make it to the vet.
If you don't or care not to listen to me, Georgies's mom, or Parella and heed our earnest sincere heartfelt warning and concerns so be it, all you have to do is google the condition and READ!
Again we are only caretakers of our beautiful fur babies here on earth. We all have to answer someday for our behavior here
