Lets hope spaying will set her right...once the cause of her problem is gone, she has a chance to bounce back and take care of her puppies...what an ordeal. She would have died without you. God bless all of you.

Despite some obstacles, we did have surgery today. Let me first say that we are home and so far hanging in there.

Now for the story....

Was not sure if we were going to be able to have the surgery today since we had snow and sleet. Had to pick momma up from the ER Vet by 9 or be charged for another day. Called my vet and talked with him and he decided that we were going to all try to make it to his office. He had 2 techs there already and called in a 3rd. No time was set but would do it as soon as everyone arrived. Decided to head straight there from the ER vet and be there early instead of waiting till later. She was alert when we picked her up from the ER Vet. They did a wonderful job on getting her ready for today's surgery. Pumped her full of fluids, gave her 3 heavy hitter antibiotics, gave her a B12 injection and did a coag transfusion to give her extra coag to help in surgery. My vet was extremely pleased at their efforts to get her to the healthiest possible state prior to the surgery. Yes, he did call and thanked the doctor for doing that. Surgery started around 10:00-10:30. Tech's had the OR set up and heated prior to vet getting there so had NO waiting. Office was cleared out of all patients. Office would not take any visits till we was done. They were referring everyone to other facilities. He wanted NO ONE coming through that door until this was over. Yes, the doors were locked. Never in my life have I seen that happen. Went through exam and pre-op with vet and he explained that this would be a very difficult surgery. When taking her back he told us all to pray. Of course we were all crying and praying. Little after 11 was called and told surgery was done and they were sewing her back up. Uterus was worse than expected, stomach was better than expected, puss was in the abdominal cavity and she does have peritonitis. Uterus did start attaching self to other areas but no big transfer sites made. Chose not to remove urinary stones since the bladder had NOT been touched and with the posion floating around did not want to give it an incision to get into. So, hurdle 1--survive surgery was passed. Hurdle 2--wake up from surgery--passed. Hurdle 3--remain healthy 4 hours post op was passed. Did not know but there are 5 levels of danger for a dog. They are worst being Grave risk, High Risk, Moderate Risk, Slight Risk, and Minimal Risk. Before surgery we were placed on Grave Risk, We are now on High Risk and will stay there for the next 48 hours post op.

Sorry to cut short but have to feed puppies...will be back to finish when done.
