StarFox Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 My mom called and made the appointment for Zebra to have the first of this 3 operations. We have to take him there this Thursday and they are going to operate early friday morning. He is having his TPO (triple Pelvic osteotomy) on his right hip. We have BEARLY enough money to cover this operations but we figure that we better save the right hip before it gets any worse. I'm so sad, scared, nervious..I don't want to drop off my baby and just leave him there. He is going to be so scared and not going to know what's going on. :cry: But the vet did say that we can bring his favourite toy so that when he wakes up from the anestesia he has something there to comfort him(we are going to take his Mallard that he carries around everywhere). And a nurse is with them when they wake up, so that does make me feel a little better. And a nurse calls everyday to tell us how he is doing, so that is good too. But he will be there from 3-5 days and we can visit him the day after his surgery. But i'm not going to have my Zebby here for 4-7 days!!! :cry: I don't know what I'm going to do, I'm going to be sooo worried! Quote

StarFox Posted November 7, 2003 Author Posted November 7, 2003 Thank you all so much..I realy needed all the kind words, I've been an absolut mess this week. We just dropped Zebra off at the vets, he was so happy to see all these people and when they took hiim I cried so much and cried all the way home. My mom cried too and kept hugging Zebra untill they took him out of the room. My dad and brother waited in the car because they would have cried too and they are macho guys who think crying is for sissys :roll: . But the doctor assured us that they would call when the sugery was over and he was awake. When we were waiting in the waiting room there were 2 women in there who's dog was having internal bleeding and they had to rush him to the vet. :( But they said that there dog had to have a total hip replacement and a TPO and he was fantastic after and that DR.Rooks (our doctor) was amazing, so that did make me feel a little better. Oh yea Zebra did the funniest thing while we were waiting, they have this big glass doors there and they have some kind of tint on them so you can't see outside, but you can only see your reflection. And zebra started acting all funny while looking at the door, he started to whine and bay and I relized that he thought there was another dog in the window! But it was just his reflection :lol:, Such a silly little dog. I can't wait till we can see him on saturday, but I wanna see him now! :( I think this is going to be the longest few days ever! Quote
