I'm hoping that everything's going well:) keeping you guys in my thoughts and prayers!

I wonder when she'll be out of surgery? Saying prayers for sweet, Bassett.

Most recent news is posted on this thread...

The operation will last about 2 Hours.

UPDATES!!! :)

Bassett is out of surgery, and starting to wake up. The surgeon's words were "Bassett has been ROCK SOLID STEADY and did very well!" What a trooper my baby is!!!!!!

Before the surgery, they did an ultrasound. Her pericardium sac was significantly thicker than it was before, and there was still a lot of fluid, so they went in. They did all three procedures, and Dr. Schiller said there weren't any complications. Bassett has a lot of scarring on her lungs from the fluid being in there all the time, but Dr. Schiller expected that and was not suprised with what she saw (which I take as good news.. today I like boring with no suprises on the side). They opted not to put in a feeding tube because, as Dr. Schiller put it, "With her tortie attitude, we thought the less irritation the better." Hmm.. I wonder if anyone needed bandaids after Bassett's xrays and ultrasound this morning!! One thing that Bassett has always been good at, though, is EATING. She loves to eat, and I know when I took her in this morning she was hungry and was quite mad at me that I hadn't let her eat since midnight. So, I think she will be fine as long as her anasthesia doesn't make her nausous. (I'm pretty sure I spelled all that wrong.. sorry :o ).

I got *no* sleep last night.. between my busy mind and Bassett begging for food.. it was horrible. I've been sleeping most of the day. Now that I know Bassett is doing well, I feel much more refreshed :) I can't see her tonight, but Dr. Schiller urged me to come and see her tomorrow.. so I will be doing that and bringing her some of her favourite fishy treats :)

Thank you all for your prayers - THEY ARE WORKING so keep it up!

And thank you also for all these amazing sigs. They are AWESOME! :)

Love you all!
Naomi

Naomi - thanks for your PM! Tears of joy are flowing now! You go Bassett girl!! We always knew you were a tough cookie!!!

Can't wait til you can see her!

Oh Naomi I can hardly see my keyboard with these darn tears in my eyes. I am sooooooo glad, happy, elated that Bassett has come through his Sir Jury. Wait a go Bassett. What a relieve for you Naomi. Prayers on the way for a quick recovery. Give Bassett a big kiss for us tomorrow.

Oh this makes me so happy to read!!!
Basset sure is strong, and it sounds like she is a fighter!!!
I am so happy!
Can't wait to hear another update!!

I'm soo happy. In fact, I did call the hospital about 10 min ago and heard she was out of surgery. Way to go Bassett!! This is just proof once again that PT Prayers do get answered.

N: I'll leave Bassett to recover on Tuesday but would love to visit on Wed if she's still in. You can call or PM me. Thanks.
