Please Keep my Oliver in your prayers.... 1 Attachment(s) I left Oliver tonight at the Hospital...he is having surgery on both back knees tomorrow morning for luxating patellas. He has been graded between 3 and 4 on both legs.:( I hated leaving him...he has a way of making me feel so guilty with his adorable face...He wont be able to come home until Friday...I cant wait until it is all over with. They said they will call me tomorrow as soon as he comes out of anesthesia..I know i am going to go crazy until i can bring him home..... Please just say a little prayer for my boy...I love him so much..Thank you.... |
I will keep him in my prayers. Cali has grade 4 in both legs but so far doesn't seem bothered by it. Please keep us posted on how he is doing. |
I will say a prayer for your precious baby. I'm sorry he can't come home until Friday. That is going to seem so long to you. Sending you hugs and get well wishes to Oliver. |

awww Jeanne I wondered where you have been lately and was going to leave you a message on facebook last night. I missed this post and am sorry your little Oliver has to go through this. I am sure you are worried sick. I hope he does great and recovers quickly. Feel free to pm me anytime you want to talk. Hugs and prayers for you and Oliver. |

I'm so sorry I missed this earlier. Please try not to worry. You are doing a great thing for Oliver. In any other generation, Oliver would be doomed to being crippled for the rest of his life. You're giving him a chance -- a good chance at that. Modern surgery is amazing, and you're taking full advantage of it for Oliver. I went through the same anguish with Jack a couple times, and I never regretted a second, or a penny, of it. And, believe me, Oliver will know you did it all for him out of love. You'll be closer to him than ever before because he'll know you were there for him in a tough time. Sending happy thoughts for Oliver and your family. |
Praying for Oliver to have a safe surgery this morning. :hands: :hearts-en:hearts-en:Piccolo sends doggie kisses and hugs. :hearts-en:hearts-en |

Thanks Mike and Lisa... I know that i am doing the right thing for Oliver, but it was all i could do to push myself out the door yesterday and leave him there. He is such a sweet boy, and his most favorite thing to do is chase his balls (we have a million of them all over!) So crying all the way home..i turn on the radio (we were having bad weather all around) and i hear tornado warnings for the area that i left Oliver in! Needless to say, i was a wreck! Thank God, they fared the storm well, but, what a long night it was...now for the long next few hours until i hear from them that his surgery is over...:( It is so nice to be able to vent to people who totally understand... |
Praying for a safe surgery and a quick, complete recovery for Oliver. You're doing a great thing for him! Stay strong and he'll be home before you know it! I'll check back in later for an update. {hugs} |
Just stopping by to see if there are any updates.... Hugs |
I will keep you and him in my prayers.Hugs |
I hope Oliver is doing well! Sending positive thoughts your way! |
Update on Oliver...Thank you God... I got the call from the surgeon and Oliver is doing well. The surgery went well, he said poor Oliver was definitely a grade 4 in both legs. He had a lot of work to do to make his legs right. He has pins in both and they also did a tibial crest movement on both. He said they had to rotate 45 degrees on both legs. He said unfortunately, Oliver will be a little worse before getting better because of the pain, but long term this will give him much better mobility. He stressed how the next 2 months are crucial in Oliver's recovery....total confinement other than potty breaks on leash. I have to call at 9am tomorrow and the doctor will let me know then if he wants to release him tomorrow or keep him another day. It all depends on how he is doing. I want to thank each and every one of you for your thoughts and prayers for my boy. This has been one of the longest, most stressful days in my life~ I cant wait until i can pick him up just to reassure him he hasn't been abandoned..Thank you all and God Bless...it is amazing that i have not met a one of you and i feel closer than i do to so many people in my life.. |
I'm so glad he's doing well! Yay Oliver! |
I have been out all evening and couldn't get on here quick enough to see how he made out. If you can just imagine I made it here before the banning thread lol.. Seriously I am so glad he came through surgery okay and that the worst of the worry is behind you. Looking forward to updates on how Oliver is doing. Big hugs |
Oh Jeanne! I am so sorry I am just now seeing this! I feel so bad. My life has been so hectic lately that I just jump on here a few mins at a time and I just happened to catch a glance of Oliver's name in a title tonight and I thought :eek: I was so happy to get to the end and to hear he is doing well. Poor little fellow, sounds like he will have a long road ahead of him but as others have said, he will be better off in the long run. You are a great Mommy! I'm sure it's tough having him there and you at home. Hang in there, he knows you love him! Is he still going to be able to come to the meet up??? Oh I hope so. I just can't wait to see that little face in person. He is so dear! Please keep us updated as you can. I will be praying for you both! |

I just called about Oliver...they said he is a little doll....so quiet...but no interest in food and no desire to use his legs :( but that i shouldn't worry, after all, he only just had the surgery this morning. They will try again at midnight, but they said he is resting comfortably and has some powerful pain meds on board. God how i miss him! I have to call in the am and talk to the doc at 9am, but i will be calling when i get up at 5am just to check on him. Thank you for the message on my page...i am keeping your dad in my prayers as well Jamie.. I hope all will be well for him.. And of course he will be at the meetup! I cant wait for you all of us to meet! ;) |
Hi, I will say a prayer for your baby. My maltese had the same diagnosis on both legs about 3 years ago. he is 5 1/2 now. After 2 opinions, I made the painful decision to go ahead with the surgery. Unfortunately, the first surgery didn't heal too well since he had callous around his knees. So we had to redo the surgery, imagine my poor poor baby. But now he is fine and occasionally I can still hear the cracking of his knees but not as bad. I hope I made the right decision. However, I have 2 yorkies now and my husband said that if they are ever diagnosed with the LP, he will not allow my babies to get the surgery. Is that a bad decision? |

Thanks for the updates! Sounds like all good news. He'll be up to his old tricks in no time. |
Oliver I'm sorry to hear about Oliver, but I'm glad to hear he is on the mend. You are both in our thoughts and prayers. Syl and Gus (Yorkie) :love: |

Hope sweet Oliver is doing well today. Thanks for last night's update. Piccolo wants her ♥ to get well soon. |
Update on Oliver Thank you all so much for checking in on Oliver...it is so nice to have your support through this...I called this morning at 5:30 to check on him and they told me that he is being so sweet, but, he has not eaten anything at all and has not urinated yet. They are giving him nutrical, but so far no interest in eating. :( I cant talk to the doctor until 9 am..so i dont know what to think..i am worried but i know that he is in the best place. Please keep him in your prayers, i do appreciate it..Thank you |
Thanks for the update. I am sure he is most likely just homesick and scared and will be a little piggy once he is home with mummy. Hopefully you get to bring him home today. Hugs |
update I just spoke to Olivers surgeon..the good news is he is peeing! yay:cheer: and he is picking at his food a bit. I am so happy about it! The doctor says when picked up he is standing on his legs which he feels is real good for having just had the surgery yesterday. He has very restrictive bandages on to keep the swelling down and he wants them to remain on for another day, so he thinks it would be best for Oliver to stay another night. :( I do want whats best for him so even though that saddens me i will get over it. I miss him terribly.. just wanted to let you all know...thank you! |
Have you been able to talk to the vet yet this morning? Hopefully Oliver's eaten something by now. I pray he gets to come home to you today. Sending hims hugs and smooches (& hugs for you)! |
I am terribly sorry I missed this post on Oliver but happy to see it now and read he's came threw surgery great and starting to eat. You did a wonderful thing for your Oliver giving him a second chance on life so he can run and play again without pain. Sending Oliver good wishes for a speedy recovery. |
