Good Bye My Miles ... (He's off to Sir Jury)

[furrykidsmother]

I just got an e-mail from Gina, she is very upset and disappointed. She had not heard anything from the Surgeon's office so she called and they wouldn't tell her how or if the results were done. She isn't sure if they mean bloodwork, ultrasound or surgery. Just told her that the surgeon would e-mail her when Miles is up. Then told her if she doesn't hear back by 6:00 to call back again. How frustrating this is for her. I hope they mean up from the surgery, but hard to determine when they don't give you a straight answer. Let's just keep the good thoughts, hugs, prayers going for her and Miles and hope we hear something soon.

I'm going to look at this positively and believe that they haven't said anything because they haven't done enough work yet to give any definitive answers. If anything had happened to Miles, they would have contacted Gina to come in. The same if they had found something else wrong. Right?

Gina is being a very good client. If it was me, and I've done this, I would sit in their waiting room. If they don't let me do that, I sit in my car outside.

(thanks karen!)

just about half hour later after I called, surgeon emailed me, (with a good chuckle given - 'he's all naked & hairless now. :-)' - said bloodwork was okay, ultrasound was unremarkable.. and few questions, just answered them back.

lizzie - smile, maybe ... I had a long, long walk (about three hours) with crayola, sure enough not very far away from that building where miles is in right now then was desperately waiting in car, munching snacks in parking lot just next to the clinic so I can be near him in case someone calls me. well, just now that she emailed me and telling me he's going in now and will be sure to email me back after he's awake. you're right, lizzie - no call, no bad news - believe me, I've tried to stick to that even though the surgeon mentioned she would call me with either good or bad so that left me to thinking, 'must she have frantically been working with miles after found something seriously wrong??' ..sigh.

oh, dear, I can't wait. thanks everyone, I know he'll be in good hands but I won't get to see him for months. . . laura, they asked me to not come and visit - since he's gonna be in surgery and after, he won't know his meowmie came.. it'll be sort of hard going there tonight anyway, I could flood the room with my tears just seeing him all groggy and fuzzy.

edit - sorry rose! I was trying to add something (got an email back from surgeon, going to update that in next) and broswer was giving me a hard time! grar, hope it's back up..

Glad you got a report of some kind from the vets office.
You wont get to see him for months?

[furrykidsmother]

Glad you finally heard back and that the bloodwork and ultrasound were OK. Poor baby all shaved! Well, it will grow back in no time.

I guess all we can do now is hold good thoughts and say a prayer that all goes well for him and he comes out soon! Please let us know when you hear. We will all be anxiously waiting! More ((((hugs)))) to you and prayers for Miles.

This has been such a horrible day for you, Gina. Little Miles loves you and misses you too. I know how much better you would feel if you could just scritch his head or let him know you're there by your touch. At least you know he's in surgery now and being watched very closely. Every hour is going to seem like 100 years until you hear from the vet again, that's a given. Try to hold on and count on your PT family for whatever you may need. Post us just to let off some steam if it might help. My prayers for Miles have been prayed all day and will continue until this is over. Prayers are being prayed for you too.((((( hugs)))))

Amended Title still scared me.

I can't see Gina's last post at 4:20. All it says is:

FINALLY

Prayers going up for dear Miles; poor baby, what a horrific experience for him (and you). Hugs to both of you and gentle scritches for Miles.
