From what my doctor told me, I will have a cathether in because they don't want me out of bed and that I won't be having bowel movements for about about 4-5 days (talk about major constipation afterwards

) My husband hired a personal nurse that would take care me for 4 weeks while I'm recovering. She'll be her at 7am-7:45am, come back at 11am-11:45am, then again at 3-4pm and 5-5:30pm just to check on me. I don't have friends that I can trust with Buttercup because most of them are harboring pitbulls in their backyard. My neighbor said that she is willing to come over and help me with letting him out and having play time with her 2 yorkies but she works from morning until 6pm. My husband usually takes him (Buttercup) to work with him but he can't any longer because the new secretary he hired says she allergic to dogs and will quit if he continues to bring Buttercup to work. He says he can't afford to lose her and promised me that he will consider it.
