Thanks for all the good vibes, everyone.
Surgery is tomorrow and I'm trying very hard not to worry excessively. I still have a lot of things I need to get together....a sling, some carpet runner for the one patch of tile by the front door, bedding for his crate, etc. I am working on a list now. My thoughts are pretty scattered this week! Oi, this is so hard.

He has absolutely no idea what is ahead. I haven't really been talking to him about it or treating him any differently. He is really sore right now since he is off of his supplements. We do have him on a low dose of Deramaxx though, but I can't tell if it's doing much good. Sometimes when he is just walking slowly in the house I can hear the hips popping...

I will update as soon as I can on Thursday. Keep the prayers coming!
