My Abby is being spayed tomorrow - YorkieTalk.com Forums

MyPeanutAbbyGra · 11-10-2008, 08:27 AM

To say I'm worried is an understatement. I know she'll be fine, I know she will!! She has to be. I just can not stand the thought of handing her over to them and walking away

I worry about what she'll be thinking and feeling when she wakes up and I'm not there. I'm with her nearly 24/7!! She's my baby and sits on my lap most of the time or is on my shoulder asleep when she's not playing.

I do get to bring her home with me tomorrow night, barring any problems.

So please keep positive thoughts for my sweet little Abigail Grace tomorrow.
Oh and she's also having 3 teeth pulled..I hope she will feel OK when she comes home.

Thanks in advance.

Good thoughts for Abby. Im sure she will be fine. Im glad you get to bring her home that evening

RachelGenson · 11-10-2008, 08:42 AM

We will be thinking about your little Abigail! She will do just fine, just give her lots of loving when she gets home

IndianaGirl · 11-10-2008, 08:47 AM

Abby is going to go through this with flying colors! She will be up and running in no time

MyPeanutAbbyGra · 11-10-2008, 08:49 AM

Thank You Ladies

I do appreciate the good thoughts

Oh Tammy! I know exactly the worry you are feeling. I felt that same way with Maddie and Libby. I think the worse part IS handing them over. I'll never forget the looks on their little faces when the tech went walking away with them. I'll pray...not just for Abby, but also for you! *HUG* Both times my girls were getting spayed, I tried to keep really busy doing something, so the time would pass more quickly. Think of something that will be fun or productive and that will help you while you wait for the call. One thing that I did, was ask my vet if they could be the first surgery of the day and he did that both times for me. That way I got the call early saying all was well, and that makes one feel so much better.

I'll be thinking of you and Abby and praying too. I will be so glad when it's over and you have her back home with you!

I just called with my list of questions and asked about the surgery schedule.

They said to have her there between 8-9, so I asked if she was there the earliest if she's go in first and get to come home earlier...she said and I quote..."I have no idea" That was helpful...NOT! So, I'm waiting until 9! No need in her sitting there waiting to be taken back any longer than she has to.

I also asked about the pain meds. She said they'd send her home w/ Remedyl (sp?) Is this a good one? Dangerous? and then I asked what time I'd be able to pick her up and she also said she didn't know!!! GEEZ! That is not comforting at all to not get answers. I will have the answers before I leave there tomorrow.

Thank You Connie

good luck tomorrow. and try to relax.

what i did on the day of milu's spay surgery was doing things to keep my mind off of it. i went shopping and did other things to keep myself from worrying about her the whole time she was at the vet.

i also waited till the last minute to take milu in to the vet, because i didn't want her to be away from me for so long.

i took her for a little walk outside the vet's office before leaving. i also brought her bed, her blanket, and her piglet for her so she can have it with her there the whole day. (you can try to sleep with her balnket the night before so it smells like you so abby can smell you and not feel lonely when she wakes up from the surgery.)

good luck to abby and mommy tomorrow!

She loves my robe and sleeps on it all the time, but I don't think I'll take my robe in

Good idea about her blankey. I'll do that.

I will come back home because I have Daisy and wouldn't want her to be home alone, so maybe Daisy and I will go do somethings together while Abby is at the vet. Maybe we'll camp out in the parking lot

I know exactly what you're going through my Piper is also going to be spayed tomorrow. I'm a nervous wreck. Last March I had to say good-bye to my 13 year old yorkie Chip. I cried every day until I brought Piper home in July. Piper is totally different than Chip but I love her just as much as I did him. I'm so worried I can't imagine loosing her to.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my male yorkie, Peanut last January

Of course I remember the heartache and that's one thing that's scareing me so badly. I can't lose Abby. I won't even think like that.

I wish you and Piper all the luck in the world tomorrow. Please check in and let me know how she does...OK? I'll be praying for both of you.

Katylou · 11-10-2008, 01:31 PM

I know what you are feeling. My Katy Lou goes this Thursday to be spayed. I have dreaded the day for so long. Just thinking about it makes me feel ill. I love her so much. I will pray for your baby to be safe.

MyPeanutAbbyGra · 11-10-2008, 01:41 PM

Thank You

and the best of luck to you and your baby.

Patti · 11-10-2008, 01:44 PM

I will keep her in my prayers. I know how scary it is for us.

kezza · 11-10-2008, 02:34 PM

Oh I wish I could take the worry away from you..I remember that feeling all too well..it took me months to book that appointment..and afterwards she was almost back to normal within 24 hrs!

i'll be thinking about you both and checking for updates...she will do fine!!!

BIG HUG!
