Yeah, in a healthy person, losing that much blood and getting a big hematoma post-op are not normal and scary and perhaps the dose of Lovenox was excessive or a pharmacy mistake in labeling the dosage strength they packaged for you or something. I'm so glad the hematoma resorbed and you are fine now. I'd steer clear of that surgeon/pharmacy in the future where open cutting procedures are involved, just to be safe, maybe. But mistakes happen with the very best providers as we all know - still, when it's me and my providers, I tend to move on.

Thinking of you today, Jeanie. Praying for your strength and wellness.

Thanks for caring and those prayers. I'm doing really well, Kristin! It's all you girls that have helped clue me in about much of this and make me feel anything but alone. xoxoxoxo

I am thinking of you Jeanie. Hope you are doing well. :love:

Bless you and thank you. I am doing very well today! I've got a few days before I see the surgeon so I'm cool right now. :)

I'm so sorry, sweetie.
you know how to get ahold of me if you want to talk.

Thank you so much, Crystal. I wish I could help Ellie May as you helped Tibbe. I'm forever in your debt for giving me a heads up about him. Anything I can do for you, just let me know.

Keeping you in my prayers.

It really means the world to me to hear someone say that right now. I really, really mean that. Thank you, Patti.

Jeanie, I think of you so many times every day, and am sending you warmest aloha, hugs, and prayers as you prepare to knock that darn "C" word out of your body.

That's just so special to hear - God bless you for caring. You just made me feel very special, Sandy. :)

Just checking in and sending hugs and prayers!

I'm doing very, very well. God bless you for those hugs and prayers and I send them right back.

I got up the courage to tell my son last evening and his immediate call was so wonderful and encouraging. I hated telling Danny most of all.

Oh Jeanie I am so sorry to hear this news. You are in my thoughts and prayers. You are a strong person and such an amazing person on yorkietalk :love:

I'm so sorry you are going through this and praying that it is easily treated and you recover fully! Hugs to you!

Thank you so much for those thoughts and prayers and kind words. They mean so much to me, especially now.

I hate that I'm one of the awful "club" but I'm also hoping it's easily treated and recovered from and behind me before I know what's happened. But I've found lots of encouragement and hope here and feel so much better than the day I found out about the biopsy.

Jeanie, I think of you often and pray for you every day. Love and Hugs to you.

I swear that's what's getting me through this waiting. I somehow feel every bit of it - otherwise, I'd be nervous or anxious. Thank you so very much.

Jeanie,

Sheila & I continue to lift you up in prayer.

Love & Hugs from Sheila & I.

Jeanie, I'm so glad to hear that, this is a wonderful group of people and when they say they care they really mean it. (((hug)))

I agree with you, Joan. There are such beautiful bonds created on YorkieTalk, and people genuinely care about each other, particularly when the member is as giving and special as our YorkieTalkjilly.

Bless and thank you and I'm returning the favor - praying for you two. Hoping Sheila isn't hurting too badly today. Can't help but think of her often. Life gets so hard at times and what she's dealing with is truly awful, particularly as she can't get help with pain medication. I feel for her so much. God bless you both.

What you say is so true - I've found that out personally. I'd heard that the internet was a cruel and dangerous place but if you pick your sites and land on a great one first time out as I did, it's a wonderful source for virtually meeting wonderful souls all over this world. Seems like the good sites draw the good people. Plus, I've learned so much about my Yorkie on here and Tibbe is better-cared for and safer because of YT.

How kind of you to say but my sharing is minimal compared to all the others here who pour out their help, support, knowledge and good will and know so much about the breed and keep us all up on the latest information and dog news. Some here have been at it for years, dealing with frantic owners of sick and injured dogs or breeders of dogs with troubled pregnancies or pups at risk and virtually hand-guiding them along through what needs to be done to help their dog the most, which almost always begins with recommending getting the dog needed vet care to start. And how they keep it up week after week I'll never know.

Jeanie,

Thank you-Sheila is very concerned about you, and I think she is going to try to p.m. you later.

She has to write a few lines, save it to draft, and return to it.

She's pretty sick right now-dealing with a stressful situation, which I hope will be over soon.

Yes, you're right, life gets hard, at times, but her faith gets her through. She is longing to return to her Ministry.

Thank you for praying for her-you remain at the top of our prayer list.

God Bless and keep you, Jeanie.

Rich

Rich, please tell her not to worry about PM'ing me - just take care of herself and stay as comfortable as she can. I think I know what she would say and love her for wanting to go to all the trouble to say it but she needs to think about Sheila right now. I'm praying her night and tomorrow are better.

Jeanie-she had already been working on a p.m. and I copied it & sent it to you.

She is thinking of you right now. She has been through cancer, and knows it is very frightening.

We are truly grateful for your prayers, but Sheila insists, our prayers for you, must come 1st.

Rich

Jeanie,

Sheila & I are thinking of you-and you remain at the top of our prayer list.

Love & Hugs from Sheila & I.

Rich

Jeanie, just thinking of you and praying for you and a good outcome tomorrow. I know a lot of us will be waiting for any kind of an update when you feel like it.

Hugs

Jeanne

I am just reading this. I haven't read all the post yet... but I just wanted you to know you will be in my prayers and I am sending you a hug.


as you know a few years past my dh was diagnosed with cancer... he is in total remission and doing well now. I know you can do this.. and you will be fine. I will be with you in spirit


I haven't been on too much lately so I am a bit out of touch.

Sending some hugs and healing prayers your way, Jeanie. You are always in my thoughts.
