I wouldn't pay that Bill either. I understand your anger. I am glad to see you back on Here Maggie. Sending you virtual hugs and peace.Bob's surgery was $2000, then the emergency hospital was $448 and OSU did an ultasound and now they want $250. I'm on Social Security, I don't have that kind of money and the animal ER did NOTHING, and they want $448, for what? Killing my tortoise???? The surgery took all my money, but I don't think I will pay the ER bill. They did nothing and killed him. All they did was use some sub-q fluids. I have that at home, I could have given him fluids myself for free. I'm so mad, I guess....
