Hi All
I've had a few people emailing and asking where I have been
so..... I thought I would just update on my blog, instead of individual emails
A couple weeks ago my Lily, hit her knee coming up the steps.
She was lame on the left hind leg, off to the vet,.......
Xrays, shown, no fracture, but vet said she dislocated her left knee.
We tried meds and rest, but to no avail,
it was off to the surgeon, for a consult.
The conclusion....surgery to repair the Left knee and tendon
(Looks scary sore)
Surgery was successful, but still long road ahead
right now very min. weight bearing, she needs to be carried outside to do business,
knee needs to be iced at least 4 times a day. And I have been hand feeding her, instead of her eating with one leg in the air.
(kinda looks like she has no pants on)
She came home with a fentanyl patch (pain patch), along with pain meds
this will be for at least next 2 weeks, and not to be unsupervised, that she jumps or runs,
(don't think shes ready for that!)
2 weeks, she gets stitches removed, than Therapy, and one day at a time!
8-10 weeks for full healing. Hopefully running by Summer.
Will keep you posted on this post, as she progresses.
Thanks to all for your Prayers and well wishes for my FURBABY!!
She means the world to me!
HUGS!!
