This was when there was no one else even on the plane. This was on US Airways. I hear that United lets you take the dogs out.
So we had our consultation this morning at the hospital. Sue, the person who everyone said to contact there and who helped me set everything up, greeted us and gave Teddi a little knitted ball for a gift. The doctor went over all her test results and checked all her vitals and said everything looked good. He then took some blood to make sure all her levels are fine. He then said I just have to feed her at 6pm and take up her water at midnight and bring her in at 7:30 am tomorrow for surgery. I forgot to ask how long the surgery will take but he said it would be in the morning. I'll ask when I take her tomorrow.
I'm really glad my friend and her son are coming tomorrow becuase I want to go to see the Smokey Mountains on Saturday. Knowville is very small. There is nothing to do here. The big shopping area has about 5 little shops and about 5 restaurants and that's it. Today we went to the main street down town and the only things on that street was the visitor's center/coffee house (They had a free concert at noon but we only stayed for 2 songs - can only take so much fiddle music), Teddi was a big hit there. There was also a store caled Mast Market, a little art gallery and a movie theatre. That's it. I'm going to go to the university store right now to see if they have a little charm I can get for Teddi's collar. I figured she needs something to remember the place that saved her life and also everything I see just has a big T on it so I thought it could also stand for Teddi!!
Thank you all for your continued thoughts and prayers! I'll update tomorrow after surgery.
xoxo, Ronda and Teddi |

I'll have to take some pics of her in her outfit out in front of the hospital. I just talked to the surgical tech and she told me that Teddi will be the first surgery tomorrow morning at 9am. She said we need to be there between 7 and 7:30. She said the surgery will take about 45 mins. She told me they should be calling me about 11 am after she awakes. I'll keep you posted. Thanks for all the prayers!!! |
