Kirk's Hips =( **8/26 GOOD update!**"

[Queen of Poop]

Prayers for Kirk, and his mommie. I hope the second one goes as well as the first one did.

Oh Goodness you poor things!!
This is so hard on you Both!!
I think it's worse for you because you know what's about to happen and he doesn't
My every thought and prayer are with you both!

[Ginger's Mom]

Prayers are going out for your and Kirk. I hope everything goes as well in the second surgery as it did in the first. {{{Hugs}}}.

I think it's worse for you because you know what's about to happen and he doesn't

Yup, you are probably right about that, Angie. I have to fight my feelings of guilt. This morning he was playing with his I Qube quietly and having a great time. I say quietly because we still have him on low doses of tranquilizers. Anyway, he is just soo happy. And tomorrow morning when I drive him to the clinic, he will be soo happy to see everyone. He really has no idea. I'm glad he hasn't made any negative associations with the clinic. I imagine if he wasn't so happy I'd feel really guilty....

It feels like we worked so hard to get him well again and now we're going to just knock him back down to zero again. That's my emotions talking. But my logic tells me that this will be worth it in the long run. It's all quite a lot for such a young pup.

I know he will keep me up all Thursday night... After his first TPO the vet students gave him additional morphine multiple times throughout the night because he was just whining and really upset. *sigh* It will be hard for me to see him like that.

[Karen]

Yes, mom, but you know this is all for the best in the long run. Give him a hug-and-kiss just from me, okay?

[Kater]

Yes, mom, but you know this is all for the best in the long run. Give him a hug-and-kiss just from me, okay?

I know, I know.
Will do when I get home tonight. He has a very kissable nosie!!

Best of luck to you both for tomorrow's surgery. Just think, it's almost
over now.It really works in Kirk's favor that he's so young & going through
all this major surgery.He will heal faster & feel oh so much better down the
road.Prayers for strength & wishing Kirk & you the very best for a succesful
surgery & quick & complete recovery.

p.s. I agree with you on the chewies. What would we do without them.

[cloverfdx]

Good luck and best wishes for the upcoming surgery tomorrow. I'm glad to hear the first one went well and he's doing ok.

Give him some kisses from me and my pups as well.
