Lexi's surgery tomorrow
 

Our little one has surgery tomorrow for her hernia and they are going to clean her teeth at the same time. My hubby and I are so nervous...it is so hard to watch your little one playing and so happy this evening, knowing tomorrow will be so different. It has to be done as it has gotten bigger and my vet doesn't want to take any chances. I wish I could go through it for her as it is breaking our heart to know what is in store. Please keep her in your prayers this evening as we know how much all our YT friends help when we need it, I truly appreciate it and know how much it helps. I have read some posts on hernia's and I know she will be fine just wish we didn't have to use anethesia...it scares me so. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers we really do appreciate it...hugs Cheryl & Lexi

Prayers for a successful surgery and a quick recovery for Lexi :) Try not to worry too much, although i can totally understand how hard it will be! Good luck getting through the waiting;)

I'm sure everything is going to go well. I always do a Full Blood Panel before surgery to make sure all organs are functioning properly. Good Luck and please keep us updated.. Everything is going to be fine..:)

Thanks so much I truly appreciate it...oh if it were Wednesday already :D

Thanks for all your positive thoughts...I know everything will be ok it is just so hard not to worry and worry and worry :D

Cheryl, I'm sending my thoughts and prayers for Lexi. I understand how scarey it is, but you've done everything the right way and, therefore, minimized the chances for anything to go wrong. She's a special little girl and she will be home and healing before you know it.

Thanks so much I really appreciate your thoughts and prayers..it is a good feeling to know others understand what we are going through and give us such positive thoughts. She truly is our little girl and wish we could stay with her for her to know we are there. She never is alone or without us and the thought of her thinking we aren't there well...here I go again..got to think happy thougts :D

I will be thinking of your little Lexi tomorrow and praying for her safe return home. :)

Sending good thoughts and prayers to you and Lexi.

Thanks everyone your prayers mean so much to Lexi & I ....we truly appreciate you thinking of us...I will keep you posted can't wait to bring her home tomorrow and just hold her :D

Your little girl will be fine, and will be back to running and playing in no time at all. The Hernia does need to be repaired, and getting her teeth cleaned is the way to go! Relax!

Thanks much....your right I know she needs to have it repaired and then she will have pearly whites...LOL
I am trying to relax...not so easy...but I think the "WINE" is helping :D

Sending good thoughts for a successful surgery and speedy recovery for Lexi. Looking forward to your update tomorrow.

Your little sweetie will be just fine she'll be running around in no time. Please let us know how she is doing. :)

Sweet little Lexi is in my thoughts and prayers today. Sending positive thoughts a hug to you, Cheryl.

I will be checking back this evening to see how she is doing.

I totally understand how you feel and how happy you will be to call for an update at your vet and later pick her up from their office.

I will definitely add my prayers for Lexi's surgery tomorrow and a speedy recovery thereafter! My son is also having surgery today (Tuesday -- I am an insomniac again!). He is getting two repairs done to his shoulder -- college football injury. So I will be praying for a lot of surgeon's skill and the good Lord's healing touch for both my son and little Lexi!

I know it is scary for our little ones to go into surgery -- but as long as you have a good experienced vet, she should have no problems. She will be better than new! When you take her home the day of surgery, do not be frightened to hear her cry. After Ben's neutering, it broke my heart to hear him cry like a human baby! It was the first time I had heard that. I called the vet back 3 times! Just wanted to make sure. By the morning of day 3, he was all back to normal. Hope Lexi has a smooth recovery too!

We are getting ready to leave ourselves and wanted to let you know I was thinking of you and Lexi this morning. :) hugs and prayers

Deb, I can understand how worried you are over your son's shoulder surgery, but no doubt, he will be fine and have a fast recovery. The youngsters recover in no time, and the old guys like me take forever. Football Players are so tough they do not need Parachutes to Jump out of planes. They hit the ground running. I iwll say the same to you as I do to my wife.....RELAX, but I know you won't.

Still sending prayers for lil Lexi this morning.

Hi Cheryl, I am checking in to see how Lexi is doing. I have been holding her in my prayers all day.

Oh I got so excited...who does your son play for??? And I think I sent you a personal message...I am so messed up...LOL Meant to answer you on your page?? sorry...thanks so much again for your thoughts and prayers they mean so much and you were going through the same thing with you child and thought of us it means more then you know thanks again...hugs and a speedy recovery to your son keep me posted hugs again Cheryl & Lexi

Thanks so much Lisa and Lexi says thanks for the kisses she loves kisses. It means so much to have everyone think of Lexi and keep her in your prayers...I am so blessed to have such great YT friends...so thanks again.
Lexi is home and doing good I can tell she is a little sore but that is understandable...It breaks my hubby and my heart to see her little brown eyes look at us to do something as she just doesn't understand. I called the vet and he wanted me to give her a pain med tonight and not wait until tomorrow. Hugs to you Cheryl & Lexi I think the pain med is helping as she is laying down and she couldn't before

Thanks again all our wonderful thoughts and prayers worked :D Lexi is home and she was so happy to see us...course I cried when I saw her love that little face and those beautiful brown eyes. Hugs to you Cheryl & Lexi

Thanks so much...Lexi thanks you too hugs

thanks Lisa I am so blessed to have such wonderful YT friends I appreciate it more then you know...Hugs Cheryl & Lexi

I honestly can't thank everyone enough for all your thoughts and prayers for our little Lexi. We are blessed to have Lexi in our life and she is loved so very much. We were a mess this morning to say the least and I didn't think I would make it. Longest morning of our life...:D The vet called at 11:00 am to tell us Lexi was doing fine and coming around. He said we could pick her up at 4:00pm and we were there a few minutes early (well quite a few minutes early) :D I was so happy to see that little face and those beautiful brown eyes. She was wide a wake and her tail was just a waggin..I know she was happy we were there to bring her home. All went well with the surgery got all our instructions and asked a million questions poor vet. Her teeth cleaning went well but he did have to pull one tooth poor baby she is so young wish she didn't have to lose a tooth but he said it was loose..she had a lot of plaque so we will have to work on that to keep them clean. Had to call the vet tonight as Lexi was very uncomfortable and running away from her own self and crying I could tell her incision was hurting as she couldn't even lie down. He had me start her pain meds. and now she is sleeping nicely...poor baby. Anyways sorry for going on and on...Thanks so much again to everyone for all your thoughts and prayers I know they helped Lexi and I today get through this and I honestly and touched and couldn't be more thankful to all of you.
Hugs Cheryl & Lexi

Oh! I'm so glad it's over and Lexi is home with mommy and daddy. I totally understand about showing up really early. I do the same thing.:D

Thanks -- I am finally relaxed now that it is over! Dustin did well with his surgery too! All repaired & now the healing can begin! He is really a tough young man! He turned down a nerve block they offered that would have given him better after surgery pain relief. He said he did not like the sound of needles in his neck. I told him, if it was me, I would take all the pain relief they offered. But he is his own man already. ;) But if he turns down a parachute when he is jumping out of a plane..... I am going to put an end to this football thing! I am afraid that might mean one too many concussion! :D

Wishing both Lexi and Dustin a speedy recovery! Cheryl, I just knew you would be early to pick her up! I know how worried you were -- they are our babies too! Please give that sweet baby girl an extra kiss from me & my pups! I bet she will feel a lot better tomorrow but maybe not completely herself. But come Thursday -- she will probably be feeling great and you will be having to keep her from jumping off the furniture! Take care and get some rest!
