Hey everyone, as most of you all know, Tatum will be having her Luxating Patella surgery tomorrow. We are going out of town for this and have to leave very, very early in the morning. We have to be at the Surgeon's office at 10:45 a.m. but it is going to take us about 2 hours to get there...plus we will have to stop for food and to let little Tate go potty, etc., so we have to leave very early. I booked the hotel room about 2 weeks ago so all that is already taken care of....but I only booked it for one night and we won't know until after the surgery if she will have to stay only 1 night, or more. It just all depends on how she is doing. When we first get there tomorrow morning they are going to take x-rays and do bloodwork....and after that she will go in so that they can start the surgery.

PLEASE, PLEASE *PLEASE* say a ton of prayers for her.....I am soooo SO nervous about this and I will DIE if something goes wrong. I'm serious. Tatum HATES being in the car so that alone is going to be a big headache....and especially on the way back home after she is in her cast's, etc. She will be having BOTH knees done at the same time. We are taking one of the laptop's to the hotel with us and I will have my Blackberry to give you all updates on as well...and I will also take my camera and take pictures of my little angel after the surgery has been complete. There will be someone up there with her 24/7 so I can call and check on her and go up there and see her whenever I want. Also, I made sure to book a hotel that is close to where she is having the surgery just incase they would need me to get up there right away - our hotel is only 5 minutes away from where she is having surgery. I feel very confident about her surgeon - he is a Board Certified Orthopedic Surgeon with over 30 years experience....but I am just still soooo nervous

Having her put under always TERRIFIES me. That is *the* most scary part for me. I just HATE it

Here are some pictures of my little angel baby.....she is such a little sweetheart and is SO SO special and important to us, so please keep her in your thoughts and prayers tomorrow. I will update you all just as soon as I can. Hopefully I will be able to pop in with some pictures of her as well. I love you guys so much and thank you for all of your very kind and caring e-mails and PM's - it means the world to me

I am so sorry you both have to go through this. I am sure everything will be alright. We are sending yorkie hugs your way with our prayers. Your furbabies are adorable!

scentlady · 03-31-2009, 07:34 PM

I pray you walk in peace tomorrow. I will check in for updates.

Sending prayers and tons of good wishes for Tatum.
Hugs to you Brooke.

Hugs and prayers on their way for you and your little Tater-tot....I hope the surgery goes well. Am thinking of you both...love and hugs from Claire xxx xxx

stedmansmommy · 04-01-2009, 02:50 AM

Thank you so much everyone. I GREATLY appreciate every *SINGLE* reply in this post. I am in a huge hurry as we will be leaving very shortly and I still have to put some things in the car, but I wanted to pop in and let everyone know that my hubby forgot his laptop at work last night

and I am having problems with mine right now, so we won't be bringing a laptop to the hotel with us after all

I do still have my Blackberry that I can get on YT with....but getting on an actual message board/forum is just so much easier with a regular computer than it is with my phone. Also, now I won't be able to post any pictures unless I take them from my cell phone and e-mail them to someone and have them post them on YT for me. If all goes well though, we SHOULD be back home by Thursday...that's IF she doesn't have to stay more than one night (it all depends on her). But whenever I am back home I'm sure I'll have lots of pictures to post.

Anyway, I will pop in from my Blackberry if I can but no matter what I will most definitely have someone update you all on how she is doing. Thank you all so much again for the thoughts, prayers and well wishes....WE NEED THEM and PLEASE KEEP THEM COMING

Love you ALL

tumismom · 04-01-2009, 03:01 AM

praying for Tate Tate.! we love you little one!

IluvLucy · 04-01-2009, 03:26 AM

Praying for Tater Bug and for you this morning. Take deep breaths.........

I remember well how I felt when I was on the road with Rebel for his LP surgery. He stayed overnight and was VERY quiet for about 2 days. After that, it was HARD to keep him from overdoing.

Your little Tate Tate will be fine

BonBon · 04-01-2009, 03:59 AM

You and little Tatum will be in my thoughts and prayers today. Give that precious little face lots of smooches for us.
