i stand corrected. I spoke with some people at work today and realized i had confused two different surgeries. The surgery that lucy had is very critical. There is a high mortality rate. I was also told that they ARE sent home with a neck brace because they are not suppose to move that much. Things need to heal. Too much motion can cause damage.
i told them about bleu's body cast and they said a couple places do that, but most just go with a full neck brace (like what people wear).
i'm glad Lucy is doing better today. Hopefully she will be able to urinate on her own, but she will need help standing to do it. Its easiest to hold her over a wee wee pad, or a sink (that's not used for dishes lol). good luck!
