Thanks for that recommendation-- those are beautiful!

Today was tough, we're dealing with positioning, not putting weight on the leg while going potty, keeping everything clean, making sure the meds are given on time, and us trying to get some rest! The incision looks good so far, and the pjs she has on now are actually several sizes too big so there is a lot of air getting to her incision. I check on it to make sure there is no redness or swelling. Weird that we keep it uncovered when in humans you do have the incision site covered up with bandages. Anyway hopefully we get into a comfortable routine and things get easier for her as the days go by.

Thanks to everyone who offered their best wishes, helpful information, encouragement and prayers.
