| Poor Tink! I hope the surgery is soon so that you can get to feeling better in no time!

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | Twinkie's original surgery was for stage 4 luxating patella. She had it done on her other knee 1st-everything went fine. When they did the 2nd knee, she was fine for about 3 weeks & then she evidently tore the ligament. They thought her lifting her leg was from the pins rubbing, they took it out & now the Univ of Mo Vet hosp. says it is the ligament that is torn. She is going to her vet today for the staples to come out from removing her pin. Hopefully my sissy will know more about what surgery she needs after today's appt. We are saying our prayers for Tink. Twinkie has actually been very good thru her recovery, we keep her in a stroller or hold her so she doesn't walk on it. My sissy thinks she may have torn it when she was down to go potty. All our Best-Kay & Jaxon

| Update after talking with the surgeon. Well, there is a chance that Tink might not need the surgery. I spoke with the surgeon this morning but he can't see her 'til Tuesday after the Holiday. He said he can't give me an answer until he examines her and possibly does a scope on her knee. He said sometimes the little ones can just have the leg immobilized and it heals. But there is a risk that the leg won't function fully after that because it's been stiff for so long. He really couldn't say much until after he sees her. So, we play the waiting game again until Tuesday. Her appt. is at 2:30. He said she can have 1/2 baby aspirin twice a day for the next few days if she needs it. He didn't want to prescribe a pain med now 'cause he needs her fully alert for the tests. Sounds awful. I'm gonna take a rock to bite on when she screams. Hey, maybe if I take one of Kathryn's Pixie sticks along for her she won't even notice that she's being vet-handled. She does love those things. Ewww! So keep up the prayers YTers! There's still hope! |
