Waiting and worrying

[Glacier]

Dr. Jessica just called about Heyoka. He got a little testy when they tried to examine his leg. Given his size and natural malamute stubbornness, they are going to sedate him. That way they should be able to get a better idea of what's going on in his leg. She is concerned about his cruciate ligament, but if it was a total disruption, he shouldn't be weightbearing.

Yikes, two loved ones with the white coats! Hope that hubby's shoulder surgery will go well, and that whatever is wrong with Heyoka will be an easy fix!

Oh my, two of your loved ones in pain at once. How trying for you! A friend's dog once let out those same type of screams and it turned out to be spondylosis. She was treated w/meds for pain and inflammation and did just fine, so hopefully Hekoya's ailment will be something that's just as treatable. Prayers are going up right now for hubby and Hekoya and for you, too. Keep the faythe.

Stuart called a few minutes ago. The surgeon said things went very well. He has to be in a sling for six weeks and then several months of physio. Has to go back to Vancouver in two weeks for a follow-up with the surgeon. He was going to get something to eat! Must be good drugs!

Our friend, Cam, is with him and says he's doing better than expected. The extra nice part of Cam being there is that I got an update on Kira, one of our fosters who picked Cam to be her human several years ago. She is thriving and he sounds like the proud daddy of a newborn when he talks about her!

While I was talking to Stuart, the vet called again so now I'm playing phone tag with her!
