    Jimmy's bladder surgery is cancelled! Neutering still on for 3/16

    The vet called me last night and asked if I could bring Jim in today for a quick check up. He wanted to put the catheter in again and see if it goes in smoothly. Well, it went in a lot smoother than it did Friday and the PH of his urine is getting back to an acceptable level. The doc said that Friday’s urine was perfect from growing crystals and today’s was much better. HE CANCELLED THE BLADDER SURGERY! I'm so happy, but he said he might need it in the future or he might need to do this other surgery where Jimmy pees from a different hole. The neutering is still on for Thursday.

    So, James still needs prayers for his neutering and prayers that the new food makes all his problems go away.

    I've been through this with RB Angie, Sylvia, & Harley (Morty was done a month before we adopted him), but when it gets this close I still freak out! I know it will go ok, I just worry since Jimmy doens't seem to have any good luck.

    I don't think that's true at all! Look at the great family he ended up with and how much you guys are willing to do for him. I think he's very lucky indeed and his surgery will go fine.

    Thanks Jess for the great sig of my kids!


    I love you baby, passed away 03/04/2008

    That's true. He's the luckiest and unluckiest dog in the world . When people hear his story and they say, "He so lucky to have you" I'm not even modest. I say YES HE IS!

    He had so many death sentences abuse, chasing cars on a 50 mph street, heart worm, bladder problems, and the person that was feeding him passed away. I guess he is lucky I brought him home.

    Good news, I am glad to hear it. Tell Jimmy not to be too distraught over his bladder problems. Believe it or not, we humans have similar issues. I have had to have stones removed from bladder 3 times, and I am constantly passing sediment. YEAH, I know... that's more than you really wanted to know!!! Sad thing is, I need to do it again! BUT I HAVE BEEN AVOIDING IT. I have stones again and they are blocking the flow. I really should have this taken care of, but the last time I did (almost 3 years ago). They nearly killed me. Was supposed to be simple say day surgery - maybe overnight if need be! BUT OH NO... complications, complications, etc., etc.. Too much anathesia, threw a blood clot, bled internally, blood transfusions, critical care, ICU bad reactions to pain killers, Hallucinations - bottom line - almost a month in hospital, half in ICU and now on blood thinner the rest of my life. So, you can see why I am reluctant to go back!!!,

    So good news Jimmy! You really don't want any kind of surgery if you can avoid it!!!
