Awww, Marta! =( Poor little girl. I really, really, really hope you're all better and running around again soon.

[lizbud]

We'll be thinking of you tomorrow Marta. Hope all goes well for you.

Good luck today, Marta. I'm so sorry you have to have sir jury. Be a good girl so you can run again soon.

Thanks for all of your well wishes. I really appreciate it.

I took Marta in to the vet about half an hour ago, and I will not see her till Friday morning. They said I should call around 2:30 today though to see how she is. That will be about the time she is coming out of the anesthesia.

I figure I will distract myself today and tomorrow by buying Marta some "get well" toys and treats!

[Taz_Zoee]

Aww, that's gotta be hard on you. Can you go visit her before she comes home on Friday? That's a LONG time to be without the kid.
I hope everything goes well and she will be home and on the mend with you before you know it.

[cyber-sibes]

We'll keep her in our prayers. It's really hard when they stay at the vets, there's just something missing, hope she'll be good as new when she gets home! (((hugs))) Have fun picking out new toys!

Thanks. I know, two whole days will seem forever! Already Vallis is wandering around looking lost without her. I didn't ask if I could visit, but it might be harder her on her really, to see me and want to come home but to still be stuck in a cage there. At least I know she will be monitored and kept safe!

That's true. Well, keep yourself busy.

Sending you and Marta well wishes!!

My parent's RB Toby had her ACL repaired when she was 2, being a GSD mix, she was about 65 pounds and I was afraid it would slow her down once she got older. She gently passed to the bridge at the age of 13!!

Sending {{hugs}} to you and I hope your time without her at home with you go by fast!!

Just checking for the 2:30 report! I'll look back again in a while.

[cassiesmom]

Just checking in at 7:15 PM Wednesday. I'll check again later. Get well very soon , sweet Marta!

[Pembroke_Corgi]

Thanks, everyone! Good news!

Sorry I couldn't update sooner, I had to call from work and I just got home. They said she got through surgery great, and that she is just sleeping (and very drugged up with painkillers, etc.). I'm so relieved that she's ok!

Now I just have to wait till Friday (Ok, I will have to check back tomorrow, too) for her to come home! I'm trying to read up on what to do. They will let me know more on Friday, but I guess I will have to keep her completely confined for 2 weeks and do some sort of physical therapy with her leg, then be careful for another month or so. I'm thinking about buying a larger crate so she has room to stretch out but still keep off her leg.

[Giselle]

Oh no!! All paws and fingers crossed here for Marta's fast and safe recovery!!!

[caseysmom]

I am glad everything went fine, it will be Friday before you know it.

[Freedom]

First -- the MAJOR -- hurdle crossed, hooray! Now to work on the recovery and physical therapy. Glad things are making progress for sweet Marta!
