Samson007, lol!

 

Yay for Wyatt Rae, I am so glad the "C" stuff didn't get on you!  Ok, that is your one and only chance to freak your people out, so it is done, you go home and get better, and time for peace.  Whew.  Okay, what I mean by that is time for you to go back to your wild and rascally ways and keep your people freaked out that way, NOT this way.

I couldn't begin to say how special Sammy is to us.  Living and laughing with and loving this wonderful boy is priceless.

I would put good money on....your pawrents left you at the hospital for good while they took off in their travel trailer! 

If only... Oh drats! Jerry may be listening. I mean, I miss that loudmouth.

Turns out the Tripawds spokespup isn't only a whiner, he's a bleeder too! CSU called this morning and we headed down the mountain to pick him up, only for the surgeon to tell us they want to keep him another day. Apparently he's still leaking quite a bit. I'm sure Rene will provide a more detailed update soon. But for now, he's doing well and in good hands. Thanks for all the pawsitive thoughts!

Well, that's disappointing, I know you miss him.  But it still doesn't overshadow the good, no, GREAT news about the diagnosis.

Hell yeah!!!!  Good boy Wyatt.  Except, stop copying Gerry by having false cancer alarms.  It's waaaay too hard on the pawrents.  There are better ways to get their attention - like good behavior big-grin

Gerry has been a tripawd since 12/16/2009.

He was a shelter dog with a mysterious past and an irrepairable knee injury.

Videos and pics of Gerry's pawesomeness can be found at: http://gerry.tripawds.com

   Wishing Wyatt a super speedy recovery and that he will be home with you soon. I know just how you feel without him. Valentina has been in the hospital a whole week as of today. I miss her so much I think I'll go crazy! Hope your guy is home soon. That's where he belongs!

Any news yet?  I am curious to see what they find.  It seems like a long time for a suture reaction although it is possible.  Maybe scar tissue?
