Sorry I have a ton of questions but as I'm sure you know, I will be going through this soon so I am just trying to get a heads up 
One of the things I am REALLY worried about (other than her being in pain afterwards, although I know they will give her pains meds..) is that I am going to have such a hard time keeping her from trying to overdo it...oh my gosh...that makes me soo nervous 
I sure do hope that your sweet baby girl is doing well and I bet she is SO glad to have those casts off her little legs! Bless her darling little heart!
Please give her sweet, gentle hugs for me  |
Gracie seems to be doing OK today. She slept better last night than the night before (which was a bad night). She is eating and drinking well, and her little GI tract is starting to normalize. I think she may still be in some pain with activity as she does not seem to want to romp around as much as she did when she had her casts on. I have been tempted to give her more Rimadyl but am trying not to. She seems comfortable enough as long as she is resting quietly. I can tell it hurts her to stand up and move around after resting for a long time. She is sleeping a lot like any post-op patient, which is a good thing.
