Katie and I are headed to the big Vet Hospital...

I am so sorry Katie has to have surgury, but glad to know that they figured what was wrong, so it can be quickly fixed. I know it must be hard to have left her, but think of how happy she will be to see mommy on Saturday.!! :) Extra treats and kisses to Katie! (((HUGS))) to mommy as well.

Robyn

Keep us updated.

PS. Dale wishes he could sign her cast :)

Sending good thoughts and wishes to Katie this morning!

(((Hugs))) to you RobiLee and also to Katie. I think the hardest part of all of this is going to be keeping her quiet afterward! Good luck and speedy get well wishes to Katie!

Robin, I'm sorry I'm late in replying. I did read about this and Katie has been in my prayers, and will continue to be! I can only imagine how sick with worry you are, but I'm confident that your wonderful vets will do a great job and Katie will do great! She's a young, strong, healthy girl and she will heal all the faster for that. {{HUGS}} to you Robin!

I'm glad they figured how exactly what is wrong with Katie and are able to correct it. Hugs and best wishes to you and Katie, I will be thinking of you, and hoping everything is going fine. Keep us updated.

Keeping you and Katie in prayers today!

Katie and family will be in my thoughts and prayers. Yes i believe PT prayers also work.

{{Hugs}}

You and Katie will be in my thoughts today. I hope all goes perfectly!

Have you heard anything on Katie yet?

I'm so sorry I am late reading this. I will be keeping Katie in my thoughts.

All I know so far is that Katie has had her surgery and is resting comfortablely and that the doc will be calling me.

OMG Robin! I'm so sorry about Katie, but I'm glad she is done with her surgury. I'm also so sorry I missed your other post about this. I don't know how I did that.
Katie will be home in no time and back to her old self. :)

Well, the vet "STILL" has not called me!! I have called and talked to his assistant and Katie's nurse. The nurse said Katie is doing very well and has even sat up for a little while. She is being very quiet and a good girl. She has her cast on. She hasn't eaten yet and has not pottied yet. The nurse said he was getting ready to try and take her out to do her business. The assistant said that the surgery went really well and she shouldn't have any problems. Both of them say they can't "BELIEVE" the doc hasn't called me as he always calls after each surgery. Yeah, right!! I guess I just have bad luck with vets! I have been home all day and had my phone with me at all times.

Oh well, my girl seems to be doing well and I get to pick her up tomorrow. I have to call at 10am to see how she is and what time I can pick her up.

Keep her in your thoughts and prayers please!

Hugs...Robin :)

Great news Katie's all done with the surgery! Soon she'll be home with you! Don't know what to say about the vet not calling?

Oh Robin, your baby's coming home tomorrow:) Woo hoo!!! Who knows why the vet didn't call you:( I know mine will sometimes call me as late as 10pm to update me or return a call, but he does call:) Maybe there's still hope;) The best news is that Katie is doing so well and is COMING HOME! Can't wait to hear all the details of the happy homecoming:) Get a good night's rest, Robin, Alden and Tori!

Katie continues to be in my thoughts and prayers! I'm sorry the vet didn't call, but I'm so relieved to hear she's doing well. Please take some pictures of that sweetie when she gets home for us Robin!

I'm glad she's going well. It was very inconsiderate of the vet to not even call, especially when you were waiting. So, I know you'll be glad to see her tomorrow and of course we're going to want to see how our Katie is doing and that will require a camera :)

I'm glad Katie is doing well. I am sure you are so excited that she will be coming home tomorrow! Keep us updated on her progress....

I always believe in prayer and I'm sending one tonight for Katie to have a quick recovery from her surgery! God Bless!

Sorry to have missed this, my thoughts are with you and Katie, hoping for a quick recovery!

Robin I'm so glad to hear that Katie got through her surgery well. I wonder why the dr never called:confused: At least her nurses were able to keep you informed on how shes doing.
I bet you can't wait to see your girl tomorrow and give her some gentle hugs (give her one from me too):)
I'll be thinking about you.

I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to reply sooner--my computer had to have a little surgery of it's own:rolleyes:

Anyway, I'm very glad that Katie has pulled through her surgery so well--I bet you can't wait to see her tomorrow!!!!
I'll be keeping you all in my prayers, for a quick and speedy recovery:)

Please give Katie some gentle hugs from me when you get her tomorrow!!

I will be picking Katie up at 2:00 today. Woo Hoo. I can't wait to see her. I hope the car ride home is a smooth one. Alden took off work early so he can go with me.

I also wanted to let you know that the vet DID call me. He called on my cell phone. I don't know why he chose that number over my home phone. I sat home all day by my home phone with my cell phone turned off :rolleyes: I turned it on this morning when I was at work and sure enough there was a message from him. I guess I shouldn't be too mad at him now. I still don't know why he didn't try my home phone though. Oh well...

My big girl is coming home!!! Yippee!!! Tori is going to be so excited to see her big sister. Now comes the hard part for me. ;) Trying to keep her calm and quiet. It has to be done!

Thanks for all of your support and keep saying those prayers for my girl. Gotta make sure she has a full recovery.

Hugs...Robin :)

Yeah! Katie's coming home! Good luck on keeping her calm and quiet. You can do it! Just keep thinking of the end results. :)

I can't wait for her to come home!!

After all is calmed down and comfy, we must have a few pics of the big girl. :)

So glad to hear the vet did call:)

I hope you ride home goes smooth. I bet Tori will be happy to see her big sis! Make sure you get some pictures for us!!!

I'm so glad she's coming home soon! We'll be looking forward to seeing pics of how she's doing. Good luck keeping her still. Also, your gift pics are in the other general section for you to see.

:confused:

Hmmmmmm... It's 7:30 now... Where's Katie??

HEY Katie ~~

Take a minnit and Paw us a quick *note*, please!

Hope you're settling in OK!!
WELCOME back HOME!!

;)
..

I'm sure Robin is extra buisy keeping those two girls of hers *calm* !! Tori was prolly extra excited to see her big sister.


I sure hope they can check in ASAP! :D

Yay! Im glad Katie girl gets to come home, I know she'll feel alot better at home!

Im sure Tori was VERY excited to see her!

I hope you can keep Katie calm and quiet, we all know how hard that can be :rolleyes: ;) :p

Check in whenever you can, we're thinking of Katie!!

Hi Everyone!

Sorry it has taken me awhile to post. Things have been a bit hectic around here.

Katie is home!!! Katie was just as happy to see us as we were to see her. She was trying her best to do her wiggle waggle routine on three legs when she came out. I had to hold back the tears when I saw her. I was just so happy to see she was just fine. She gave me tons of kisses and the left side of my face was completey slimed...lol...and I loved every bit of it. :p She is one silly looking girl right now. Her left leg is completely shaved. She has the cut going down her knee area with staples in it and then the ankle part is in a blue cast. Her front leg has had a patch shaved to make room for the IV that she had and then on her back right above her tail is a square shaved patch where they put the epidural (sp) in. She looks a little on the pathetic side but just as beautiful as ever! Gosh, I love that girl! We have our list of instructions on how to take care of her and of course the most important is to keep her down. This is not going to be an easy task. Kay is right Tori was very excited to see her big sister and that is a big problem. So most of our evening has been spent making sure the girls do get together too often. We can't take the chance of Tori stepping or even grabbing a hold of her leg trying to play. It is going to be so hard to keep them apart. This is going to be a long haul. It already proved to be a bit hectic today and we need to work out a plan. We are going to have to take turns. One of us has to make sure Katie is alright, while the other one gives Tori lots of attention and walks to wear her out. Geesh, 6 weeks!! I hope we make it through this. I didn't take any pictures this evening. I just wanted to be with her and get her to relax and lay down. She has eaten and been out twice now. She has some more pain pills for the next 5 days. Right now she is sound asleep in her crate. I will try to get some pics tomorrow so you guys can see her pretty blue cast ;)

Thanks so much for checking in to see how she is doing and keep all the prayers and positive thoughts coming for a full recovery now.

Hugs to you all......Robin and Katie :)

Hey Robin!

So glad to see you. No need to say sorry though.

Give your girl a big hug from me and the pups. I can't ait to see pics!

Get on AIM if you can. :)

It's great to hear that Katie is home again.:) Hope both
you & Katie get a chance to rest well tonight. I know it can
be hard keeping them quite especially once she starts to
feel a little better.I have a feeling things will all work out
fine. Katie has the best mom ever.:D Take care. Liz. :)

Good to hear that Katie is back home.
I know you are giving her oodles of love right now.

Rocky sends special slurpy kisses to his girlfriend.

Good for Katie,, shes a tough girl... Hang in there mom,,,, time will go by,,,, fast?:rolleyes:

So glad to hear Katie is home and doing well. I remember when Cincy was a baby and had eye surgery...trying to keep her and Sadie from playing...not an easy task!! I wish you luck :)

The first thing I had to do when I got home from work tonight is check in and see how Katie (and you too:p) were doing!
I'm so glad to hear that she made it home and is doing great:D
I feel for you Robin, I know it's going to be a big job trying to keep her and Tori from playing. Six weeks is a long time!

Welcome home Katie Girl!!!!!!!
