Another Pet Talk friend needs prayers

Karen Israel (K9Karen) underwent a serious surgery today to try and repair some damage in her neck. I have not heard from her friend, yet, as to how the surgery went, but it was scheduled for 12:30 today. She will be hospitalized for a few days, and then home recovering for a while. Her mother is being well cared for at a nursing facility while Karen is in the hospital, then home recovering and she is doing well according to an email I got from Karen early this morning.

Please keep Karen and her mom in your thoughts and prayers, and of course, KLO (Logan...my namesake) too! :) If anyone would like to send Karen a card, please just send me an email or a PM and I will gladly get her address to you.

So many close friends needing our strength and prayers, tonight. I'm so glad that all of you are here for them. :) This is an amazing group and I never cease to be amazed at the outpouring of love of concern from each and every one of you.

Logan

prayers being sent her way that everything goes well {{{get well kisses from the furkids}}}

Thanks for passing that along, Logan.

I'll keep Karen in my prayers.

Thanks for letting us know Logan. Prayers and well wishes being sent for Karen's speedy recovery.

I hope she'll be OK and back to us soon.

Poor Karen:(

I'll be keeping her in my prayers until I hear she is 100% better.
I'm glad that her mom is being cared for while she is in the hospital.
If you speak with her Logan, tell her how much we love her, and that we're all thinking positive thoughts for her.

Sending many good thoughts for Karen to have a quick
and safe recovery.

Lots of prayers on their way from me and tons of kitty kisses from the 4 cat kids. (they hope you don't mind!)

Karen, by the time you read this, the worst (the surgery) will be over. A pox on all that anxiety that you had to endure. Now for the best part and that is for some relief from your pain which will come with your recovery.

I had no idea she needed such a serious procedure! I hope all is well.

Prayers on the way!! :( (((((HUGS)))))

Positive thoughts on the way.

Karen, I hope you have a successful surgery and a quick recovery so we can hear from you again. {{{hugs}}}

Prayers will certainly be on the way Karen.:) I hope your
recovery is swift & uneventful & you are feeling 100% better
in no time. I'm also glad your Mom is getting the care that she needs as well. Take care and do let us know when you are up
and around again. Love & hugs from Liz and the Furkids.

Prayers are on the way for "other Karen!" Poor girl, so much stress in her life and now this! Yowch!

She will be in my thoughts and prayers!

Prayers in Progess that she has a quick recovery.

Prayers on the way for Karen! I hope she will be feeling better soon.

Thanks for letting us all know this Logan.

Karen, I hope all is going well with you and you are back to normal in no time. Take care and you will be in my thoughts and prayers as you recover.

I'll keep Karen and her mom in my prayers. I hope everything turns out good and all is well.

I will pray for a speedy recovery for Karen.

OMG, what's happening around here? Is it the planets or something? This is just so sad. :( :(

Logan, please let Karen know that I'm praying for her and I'll light a candle for a speedy recovery.

If any of you still have the 2003 Christmas Card exchange list, her address is listed there. I'll be sending her a card tomorrow.

Karen, you are in my thoughts and prayers, Tommy and Tasha send gentle kisses and wags as well. I hope you're feeling better soon Karen.

Prayers and healing thoughts for you Karen.

Prayers and positive thoughts are being sent to you Karen and to your mom as well. Please get well soon and take care.

Karen I am sending my most positive thoughts and hope for a speedy recovery:)

MANY prayers for Karen (a very sweet lady). Let us know how you are doing as soon as you can.

Our thoughts and prayers going our to Karen. Hope the surgery went well and the receovery will be speedy.

I had a great report from John, Karen's friend, on my cell phone voice mail this morning, letting me know that Karen came through her surgery just fine. He said that she is settled in her room and was lucid and alert last night. She told him that she already can tell a difference! Isn't that remarkable? :) She has pain, obviously, as a result of the incision in her throat (they do this surgery from the front, not the back, of the neck) and in her hip, where they removed bone to graft into her neck, but that is to be expected.

I know she appreciates all of your prayers so much. I'll keep you posted, as I know Rachel and Pam will, as we hear more.

Logan

Oh Karen, I'm so glad your surgery went well!

I hope your recovery is quick. You'll be in my thoughts. *HUGS*

:D Thanks for the update Logan! I'm so glad to hear that everything went well!

Thanks for the good news about Karen's surgery, Logan.
Good, healing thoughts going her way, with best wishes for a quick recovery.
I have her address, she'll find a card by the time she gets home.

Prayers being sent your way for a swift recovery time! :)

Dear {{{Karen}}}} keeping you im my thoughts and prayers - hoping you make a good recovery and feel better real soon.

Lynne

She called me a little while ago from the hospital! What a surprise to hear her sounding so clear and good. She has pain, as I said, earlier, but NO BACK PAIN!!!! :D I'm just delighted that things appear to be so much better, already! She said to tell you all thank you so much for your prayers.

Logan

Karen, you have my prayers for a very speedy recovery.

It sounds as though the surgery was a complete success and soon the pain will only be a dim memory.

I pray that this is so.

Wonderful news!

Now Karen, you get well as fast as you can and get back here to Pet Talk where you belong! No more being sick, ok? ;)

Karen,

Glad everything is doing better for you. You are very missed here and I'm glad to know you are doing well. {{Hugs}}

I love good news....Keep it coming, Karen! {{{HUGS}}}

Thanks for the reports, Logan :D:D
