Not a very flattering or interesting photo of me today . . .
But Mom didn't want to disturb me. I had a little bit of drainage yesterday morning, and then I had a cold laser treatment . The draining seemed to increase. So I saw one of the vets today for a recheck. Dr. P. said the incision looks OK, but just to be on the safe side, she put me on an antibiotic. I got an antibiotic injection at the time of my surgery that lasts for 14 days, but Dr. P. just wants to be sure nothing goes wrong. We were sad to learn today that Mom's favorite vet Dr. B. has left the practice. He was fabulous. We know where he is now practicing, but Mom needs time to think about whether to make a change or not. He is now at a much smaller clinic that may not have all the newest services we have access to now. Hard decision.
I am going to be just fine, no need to worry. I just need to keep being a good girl and stay quiet.
Woos, Misty
Misty, is that what the humans in the old days used to call "showing a bit of leg"? We hope the draining issue is resolved quickly. #1 had serious drainage after her knee surgery! Anyway, we are all sending you lots of good vibes!
ReplyDeleteHard decision about the vet... But, given some of the things that happened with you at this practice, maybe Dr. B had good reason for leaving...
Woofs,
Ollie (and hugs from #1)
Misty...OMDWooos look at that most gorgeous and well toned thigh....we can see it w/o furs very nice. Healing hugs
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry about Dr. B...I sure do understand Mom's thinking though.

I hope you get better and soon Misty. You're in my thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. My best to your siblings and your wonderful and caring mom. ♥
It looks like you found a cool place to nap. We're keeping all the POTP coming your way and hope you have a quick recovery.
ReplyDeleteI think it's an attractive shot and hope you heal quickly. I'm so happy that you are home and will be well soon.
ReplyDeleteDear Misty, It looks like you are the perfect patient! Hoping that you heal quickly. So sorry about losing a favorite vet; I keep telling Hunter's vet he can never retire. Sending you lots of hugs and kisses sweet girl!
ReplyDeleteWags,
Noreen and Hunter
It's just going to take some time sweet Misty, but you're doing good sweetie. Oh, that's a toughie about your favorite Vet moving somewhere else. I had one when I first came, she was super, then she up and left town. We weren't lucky with who we were left with so we departed, but you should give these folks a chance, especially with the technology edge.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you are keeping cool, Misty.
ReplyDeleteIt is frustrating when a favourite vet leaves.
That is too bad about your favorite vet leaving. I hope you have a speedy recovery. XO
ReplyDeleteMisty ~ sending you lots of healing energy hugs ~ Xxxxxxxx

ReplyDelete...one thing I have learned about the 'Dr B's of the world is that there is always another one around the corner... and I think you are getting top care, Misty, so maybe it is time to let the wheels turn on that one. Good girl for lying still! Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
sending you healing thoughts Misty.

We are praying the seepage stops and your are back to normal soon.
ReplyDeletePaws crossed that this is just a small bump on the road to full recovery Misty.
ReplyDeletethat was a good idea to help you out with a shot before an infection can happen, we wish you lots of potp during da healing time. the mama had the same thought too, to stick with the vet we like, or to stay at the big vet clinic with 87 ignorants... we picked option #2, because they have all medical equipments and they are there day&night... sometimes the ratio wins over our heart LOL
ReplyDeleteHello Misty and family!!
ReplyDeleteWE'll keep those pawsitive and healing vibes, good thoughts and prayers your way!!
Hugs and kisses
Maxx and momster
Paws and fingers remain crossed, Misty, as we pray for the very very best for you.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're doing well. One of our favorite vets just retired. But we like the other vets who are still there.
ReplyDeleteKeep feeling better and making progress, Misty-girl.
ReplyDeleteI don't think there could be a bad picture of you Misty!
ReplyDeletejust rest sweet girl. and you'll be well SOON! xoxo
Oh dearie me - well glad the doc put you on a "just in case" antibiotic but hopefully that is all normal drainage and it will continue on the road to healing. All photos of you are great - so you just REST!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Teddy
That is a hard decision, but I'm sure your Mom will do what is best for the Woos. Heal up well sweet Misty, we're sending our purrs and prayers and POTP your way.
ReplyDeleteSending tons of POTP for you Misty and we're hoping things heal up soon. Our Mama gets so frustrated because our town is so small and we can't seem to hold on to Vets as they come here for experience and then move to bigger cities....We know your Mama we'll figure out what is best for you all!
ReplyDeleteThat would be a hard decision, we are lucky that our wonderful vet has her own clinic but she does have to send us to see other vets for major stuff that she doesn't have the equipment to do. Or for specialty stuff.
ReplyDeleteWOE is only one letter away from WOO ... all will soon
ReplyDeletebe well again, not to worry sweetheart ...
Hi hi hi! Ojo here! Naps are healing! Keep napping, friend!
ReplyDeleteOh, Having the same dilemma here! Our favorite vet and owner of the practice is semi-retired - 1 day a week only! We hate all the others. They lack his intuition and species skills (people, canine and feline). We picked out a new vet but they never have time for a new customer and our old one is open 7 days a week!
ReplyDeleteYou are such a good girl Misty, and we wish your recovery goes smoothly and QUICK!
