The surgeon actually isn't a part of my vet's office, he was called in as a consultant type basis, and he charged my vet's office (which of course we paid as part of the cost). I never met or spoke with him, but my vet referred to him as "Cal" and told me a bit about him and how he taught surgery many years at the University of Minnesota. He did the surgery there in my vet's office. My vet, Dr. Nielson, said he could have tried the surgery but he is not familiar with it like Cal is and he was not going to go experimenting.

She's been enjoying her yummy food but doesn't appreciate having the area flushed with a syringe afterwards. She always gives me this look like "was that really necessary?"

I probably mentioned it but her first recheck is Friday morning this week. Otherwise I may be quiet for awhile as I desperately need to get to catching up on work now! I do still have that fear of seeing it come back, but I have more of a feeling this time that won't happen.
