Wow e-coli huh? Who knew?! No wonder she felt so bad.
I'm so glad things are better. When those stitches come out that is one big hurdle you'll get over, it will feel great!

Hi All - Vet came today and is pleased with Seanna's progress. The seroma wound has virtually dried up, but as there had been an infection he is delaying removal of stitches until next Wednesday - just in case! Today Seanna has had two walks, 15 mins each and has enjoyed sniffing everything. She is having rather a lot of gravy bones, so I must check with the chemo vet in 2 weeks re diet. I am suffering from lack of exercise and keep falling asleep!
Sue & Seanna
Oh yay it sounds like things are sooooo much better! Two walks is pretty remarkable, she's come very far. I agree with the vet's decision, seems like a good idea not to mess with that area just now.
Get your rest, you'll be putting on your running shoes in no time!

SUE! SEANNA! YAAAAAAY! So glad things are on the up and up! Well deserved!
Now you need to post pictures of Seanna...I'm no help but there are plenty of links on here of how to do that.
Look forward to more great updates!
Rubbing Seanna's tummy counts as exercise, right!
Hugs!
Sally and Happy Hannah
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
Don't let Sally fool you. She is the one who "taught" me to post photos. SNORT!
So happy to hear that Seanna is getting her sparkle back.
Kathi and Murphy
Murphy is a five year old Lab/Chessie cross. He was hit by a car on 10/29/12 and became a Tripawd on 11/24/12. On 2/5/13, he had a total hip replacement on his remaining back leg. He has absolutely no idea that he has only three legs!
UPDATE: Murphy lived his life to the fullest, right up until an aggressive bone lesion took him across the Rainbow Bridge on April 9, 2015 and he gained his membership in the April Angels. Run free, my love. You deserve it!
