sending prayers your way today!

Ceibasmom · 06-05-2007, 05:11 AM

Vinnie's Mom - I just droppped my little Ceiba off to be spayed, so I can totally sympathize with you about Vinnie today!
I have finally calmed myself down after bawling for a good bit. I dunno what I'd do if anything happened to my baby!! I am blaming this on the pregnancy hormones!!!
I spoke to the Vet and he walked me through the whole process, assured me that no barbituates would be used and that they do use Iso as the preferred gas. She will be hooked to a monitor the whole time. They told me to call after 2 and see how she is doing. I opted for pre-bloodwork to be sure she's healthy.
I have her brother here with me and he senses something is up. He barked his little head off when I took her (I tried to fool him w/food). He hasn't eaten his breakfast and is just moping around. He keeps going to the door looking for his sister and whining.
This all just breaks my heart!

Vinnie's Mom - keep us posted on how Vinnie recovers! I will say prayers for both of us!!

Aw, I will be praying for your little baby too, it is just totally nerve-racking! It was all I could do not to cry when they took him away from me last night, and then when i came home and got no puppy kisses and then this morning i prepped his food and water and went to get him up and nothing! Please keep me informed about your baby as well!

Sethowner · 06-05-2007, 06:41 AM

You are allowed to be worried, I was so worried I posted here also is'nt it great the support you get here!!! Prayer have been sent and your baby will be fine.

Vinnie's Mom · 06-05-2007, 07:40 AM

I should be able to call in an hour and get results, i have butterflies and can't concentrate on work today, at all!

LoveMyGirlz · 06-05-2007, 08:05 AM

I missed this yesterday!! Sounds like you get him home soon?? Best wishes to you! It will alllllll be ok - I have done it 4 times with girls and 1 time with a boy - its not fun!!! I'm a worry wart too

Hugs to you!!

Vinnie's Mom · 06-05-2007, 08:21 AM

I just called the vet, they are just so wonderful!!! They let me speak directly to the nurse that is taking care of my baby, and he's out of surgery, they said he was scared, but he did wonderful, is out of anesthesia, is neutered/chipped and the doctor even took out a molar. My vet is very anti-pulling teeth during a neuter/spay because of the nature of bacteria in a dog or even a human's mouth, but the tooth was a baby tooth and it was broken. She filled me in about his night last night and told me i could call till 7 tonight to check up and then pick him up at 4:30 tomorrow. I'm still going to worry and be nervous until I have him home but i'm more at ease. Thank you for all of your prayers and support, you're all so wonderful, I truly appreciate it from the bottom of my heart!

LoveMyGirlz · 06-05-2007, 08:24 AM

YEY! I'm glad you got the info and right from the nurse! Poor little guy! Sorry you won't get him till tomorrow, but he's in good hands!

Booboo'smommy · 06-05-2007, 11:03 AM

I am so happy you got to speak with the nurse and that your baby is ok. Thank God for that. I am sure he's going to be jumping around like mad when he comes home. LOL

My Boo-Boo had his surgery 2 weeks ago and he's doing so well.One more time I am really happy your baby is ok. Here's for a speedy recovery.

Ozzie'sperson · 06-05-2007, 11:05 AM

Glad he's OK. Take a breather -- you'll need the energy to try and contain Vinnie when he comes home!

Vinnie's Mom · 06-05-2007, 11:14 AM

I will need energy to try and contain him, my little mountain-climbing yorkie that he is! I'll continue to worry until 4:30 pm tomorrow when I get to bring his cute little butt home! How is it that such a fragile little dog can be so brave? Bless his little heart, he can do anything he wants to do and I know i'll have a hard time stopping him! He is just such a sweet and loving little guy, and knowing the way he is at the groomer's he's probably turned on the yorkie-charm, batted his little yorkie-eyes and probably has every nurse wrapped around his little paw. Thanks again to everyone!

irbrenda · 06-05-2007, 11:32 AM

Speedy recovery to all your babies! The best feeling is having them back in your arms again! I've done it 4 times. And I was a basketcase when Ralphie had stone surgery/neutering/teethcleaning. My son (21) just had Lasik surgery last week...I was nervous, but not as crazy as when my furbabies got neutered/spayed!

Ceibasmom · 06-05-2007, 11:40 AM

I picked up Ceiba about an hour ago - she is still very groggy and sleeping right now. Her brother (who had been whining all day) immediately wanted to say 'hi' but she wasn't having any of it. She snarled and growled like I've never heard!
She is curled up on the couch and her brother keeps licking her face. I think he is trying to watch over her.

I never want to go thru this agony again! Can't our babies come spayed already?!

Well, at least it's over now. She's microchipped (Avid) and spayed. Her incision looks pretty decent - internal dissolvable stitches and skin glue on top. What I DON'T like is the shave job she got on her front leg - guess that was for the heart monitor. Owell - I'd rather her be bald there than anything to have happened to her.
Vinnie's Mom - how is Vinnie?! Keep me posted!

Thea · 06-05-2007, 03:43 PM

Hi guys! Sorry I missed this post yesterday. I am glad that the news today was good news. I bet you all can't wait for some more yorkie kisses! My little girl is going in on Thursday for her spay. I too am a nervous wreck! She will spend the night on Thursday at the clinic. I wish I had one of the monitors at my house! I will keep you guys and your babies in my thoughts and prayers!
