Ha, no, I mean it's not the doctor's idea to amputate, it's daughter's idea. Big difference!
I'm not sure what UBC (unicameral bone cyst) would translate to in German either (Google suggested 'unicameral bone cysts in German shepherds', so not very helpful). Medical texts in English/Latin aren't easy to translate even if you do speak English.
Permission to whine is on occasion nice, thank you. :) Though it seems like the end of the world, we keep being reminded that it's a fairly minor problem. Daughter had to go to an activity for the weekend, and I told her to play it up and let everybody else help her so she wouldn't stress her arm too much. She came back and said, "I just couldn't try to get sympathy, because there was another girl there with scoliosis who had to wear a body brace. How could I make a fuss when she's dealing with that?"
