Please pray for Chester :(

Oh Micki, I only saw this thread now! I am so sorry about what happened to Chester but I am glad he is doing okay and is being well taken care of. Keep us updated on him. :)

Poor Chester.

Prayers are on the way. Hopefully he will back home happy and healthy soon!

I just saw this post Micki. I am praying for Chester and please keep us updated after his surgery. I know others have said similar things, but thank God Chester tried to jump up on the counter. If he hadn't you may have missed the blood and he could have had real problems with his kidneys or who knows what. I know you boy will be ok. NOW GET SOME REST ;)

Chester’s surgery is over and we have some good news! Steve was able to remove all the crystals inside his urethra without cutting his penis open (he wasn’t sure if he could flush them back up into the bladder and remove them with the large stone with just one incision)! So that means less stitches and easier recovery. He’s still very out of it and has the catheter, so I’m going to go see him after work and pep him up a bit.

He’ll probably stay tonight and tomorrow night and come home Wednesday. Steve says come by as much as I want, so I will. :)

Thank you Pet Talkers!!! :D :D :D

Half way there, still thinking of Chester for his surgery today. Fingers and paws crossed for you all :)

What happy, happy news!!! Brave little Chester is out of sir-jury!:D I'll bet he'll be so happy to see his Mommy! Dr. Steve sounds likes a real sweetheart and a fine vet! Now you get some rest, Micki:) Prayers continue for Chester's speedy recovery! Love Sandra, cody and Star

I have to say again your vet sounds wonderful, and how much it helps to have a good vet like that when you are a worried mom! I'm glad you'll get to visit Chester baby, and that he'll be home soon. Give his little nose a kiss for me!

I'm happy to hear that the sir-jury went well! I'll send some postive thoughts that he has a speedy recovery :)

I went and saw Chester and he was so sad looking. He stood up and tried to climb into my arms, but he wasn’t very steady on his feet. He was just so pathetic. His urine was mostly blood, but that’s expected right now. Steve said that he’ll take out the catheter tomorrow and hopefully Ches can come home soon! Our home just doesn’t feel right without him!

When I go there I asked the tech for a clean towel and she said she had just put one in the dyer to warm for him, and that she’d done that a couple of times already this afternoon! :) They are so nice there. I just wish he wasn’t there alone. I wanted to take him to the e-vet to stay overnight, but I wouldn’t have been able to pick him up and get him switched out in time in the morning, so I hope he’ll be ok tonight. :(

I also hope to get a couple of hours of sleep tonight, I’m pooped! I kept waking up just as I’d doze off last night and I’d think of Chester being cold, scared and wondering where I was. At least tonight he knows where he is and they keep the ward very warm. :)

I can’t wait to go see him tomorrow at lunch and after work. If I remember, I’ll take my camera and try to get a couple of pics.

I can never thank you all enough for your prayers, concern, words of encouragement, and good thoughts. Chester and I appreciate each and every one of you so very much. What wonderful friends you all are. I could never have survived this without you, and knowing you were all thinking of us and hoping for the best!

sorry I missed this Micki~
prayers on the way for sweet Chester

Glad to hear Chester is doing okay. We'll keep parying for him and a speedy recovery

Gee Micki, I had no idea till now what you were going through! I just saw this! I'm sorry you and little Chester had to go through such a scarry thing! I know its awful when your baby has to be away from you. I know it is even worse when you are afraid for their life!

I'm so sorry I didn't look over here today! I was wondering where you were, but silly me didn't think to look over here in dog General.

You and little Chester have my prayers and Hugs.
Give him a nose kissie for me.

Hugs and kisses to you and Chester.

Wonderful news! Way to go Chester :D I hope you get back to your old self again soon!

I am sure Chester is going to sleep the night away and before he knows it, mommy will be there to visit!

I am so glad the surgery went smoothly and chester will be home soon.

Continued prayers for the sleepy doggy and tired mommy!

I didn't see this either. I'm so sorry Chester is sick. You're a good mom. He's being well taken care of and will be home soon. I'm glad that he was able to have surgery done by someone you trust. Please keep us updated.

Woo Hoo!!!!!
So Glad that Chester is on the road to recovery!!!!
He'll sleep good tonight!!!!!
Hugs & Treats(When he is able!!)

Oh no! Poor Chester. :(

Well, the good news is that he feels good enough to bite.....that's usually a good sign!

Seriously, I'll be thinking good thoughts for Chester.

Oh Micki, I'm so sorry I didn't see this thread sooner. :( Poor Chester! I'm sorry to hear about this, but glad that he made it through the surgery ok. Will be keeping him and you in my prayers.

So glad to hear the surgery went well and Chester will be home soon. :) Keeping him in my prayers for a speedy and full recovery.

I'm so happy that the worst of it is over with! I'm sure he was happy to see you. I'll bet you'll be really glad when he's home safe and well again. Give him a hug for me.

did you get some sleep last night? ;) when will chester be home today? hope for both of you, it's soon. regards, joyce

Micki, hope you got some rest last night. When do you get to pick up Chester? I hope you get your baby soon. I know he is wanting to be with mom.

Hugs to you both.

Is today the day that Chester comes home?? I hope so. Give the little guy a hug from the Kendall Krew

No, he can’t come home today. :( He has to stay there one more night, since they’re keeping the catheter in him today. They’ll take that out this afternoon and then he comes home on tomorrow! Yay! I can’t wait. :D

I did get a pretty good nights sleep. LOL, I got out our electric blanket and turned it on, and kind of waded it up and put it next to me to mimic Chester. LMAO What a weirdo I am! Hey, it worked though. I’ll never tell anyone other than Pet Talkers cause they’d have me committed.

I’m going for a lunch time visit today and I’ll try to get a pic or two for y’all. ;)

:D What great news. So very glad to hear thaat Chester is doing so well. :D
Sending our thoughts and prayers for a speedy and easy recovery. I hope he'll be home soon with you, that is the best medicine!!! :D

I'm glad they are making sure he is ok, and ready for mom. Sounds like good vets you have for Chester.

I think we all understand your love for your baby. My younger sister don't like dogs and thinks willie and I have lost our minds.:D If its crazy to love our dogs then I would rather stay crazy.:)

I hope little Chester gets to come home heathy to his sweet mommy.

Can't wait to see more pictures!:D

I'm so glad little Chester is feeling much better, and gets to come home tomorrow!!!!
I think that was a great idea what you did with the blanket--if it helped you sleep, good for you!!!!!

It sounds as though you have a wonderful vet, too.

When you see Chester at lunchtime, tell him we're all thinking about him:)
