Dee is home from surgery. I was able to bring her home instead of keeping her there overnight. She had both knees worked on, ACL repair in both, and a teeth cleaning. In total, she was in surgery for 3 hours. Dr. gave me a discount on the ACLs since they were already doing work on the knee.

She hasn't eaten much since being home, just the cheese i wrap her pills in. I will try to give her some chicken later in the day. She's been drinking a little bit more this morning than last night.
Last night she just slept on her pillow all night. Once we went to bed i had her sleep next to me..she seemed to do OK but every hour she was up trying to get comfortable. She started shivering too. So i put a blanket on her and that didn't help so i gave her the pain meds an hour before i was suppose to and the rest of the night she was fine.
I haven't been able to get her to go potty. She is able to stand but it's too awkward for her to walk so i'm out there holding her, trying to spread her legs down. Nothing. Then she sits with her legs out to the side and i don't think she is doing anything in that position either. She just started drinking this morning so maybe she's just been on empty?

She goes in for her first laser treatment on Saturday. I haven't seen anyone here mention laser treatments after surgery but I've done a fair amount of research and it's been shown to be effective.
