| Tucker's Surgery As some of you know, my baby Tucker has a liver shunt. He has been maintained for 3 years now, but he's getting to a point where medications and diets don't work anymore. So- he is scheduled for surgery to correct this tomorrow. I am extremely nervous... But if the surgery is successful Tucker will live out the rest of his days a normal happy dog, but I wish he didn't have to be put through this. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers, I love him so much!! He goes in at 7am tomorrow. I will be able to pick him up Saturday, they need to keep an eye on him for a couple days because of possible post-shock syndrome . Hopefully he will be up and *almost* back to normal by his 3rd birthday , on Tuesday (June 6th) In the picture, Tucker is one the right

| I'm sure he'll be fine! Tuckers are tough! Especially ones that are owned by Megans! That is too weird, and I think he looks JUST LIKE our Tucker. Prayers and good thoughts going out to you. What do you think, are they twins?

| We'll keep you both in our prayers. I know you're nervous, but just think about how much healthier and happier he's going to be. If you don't mind my asking, how much is this surgery going to be? |

| Thanks everyone, it means a lot to all of us and especially Tucker! Terri- Wow! They really do look alike!!! Lacy's Mom- The surgery is going to be about $2,000. A lot less than we were first estimated, thank God I want tomorrow to be over with so bad it's driving me crazy

| Oh Megan, I didn't know. I will pray for Tucker and you and your Mom. He's a tough little guy. Please kiss him and tell him his Yorkie Talk family is behind him all the way. |

| Megan... I am sorry to hear that you have to go through this with your Tucker. I will keep you & him close in thoughts and prayers. I know the anxiety that you are dealing with; my Jazzy just had LP surgery done yesterday.... I just picked her up a couple of hours ago. She is doing well, but she is tired and clumsy with this big red cast contraption on her back leg... I am just keeping her close to me. Try to stay busy while he is in the hospital, that will keep your mind from wandering(somewhat) . I am sure that he will be in the best of care and he will get this behind him and have wonderful happy days to come... Please keep us posted as we will worry too!!! Chel & Jazzy |
