No One Told Me It Would Be Like This

Published on by Xena, Lucy and Chia

No one told me…well, Tyebe tried. She said after her big girl surgery it felt like someone punched her in the gut. She forgot the “sliced with a knife and sewn back up” part.

The dogtor shot me up with pain medicine and sent some pain pills home for me to start taking tomorrow morning. If I felt good enough to get up from Mommy’s lap I would find them and take a couple. (The dogtor promised they aren’t opiods.)

And if anyone is wondering, I got my full supper when we got home plus some extra beef chunks. Ohhh, I’m starting to feel drows….zzzzzz.

Note from the Mommy: The vet said Xena did really well, and he repaired the little hernia she’s had since birth, too. Her incision is the smallest I’ve ever seen for a spay, about 2 inches long. All the moaning is more a side effect of the anesthesia than from pain, and the pain pills are well out of reach! Thank you for all the POTP. I really needed it! It’s over, the patient will live and so will her Mom.

  5. Sweet Baby Girl, you are very brave and by tomorrow you’ll be almost back to your old sassy self. Just take everything a bit slow for a few weeks and you’ll be dancing and pirouetting around the dance floor before Easter. Just dream sweet dreams for a little longer. Sending you happy thoughts Granny T (((Hugs))))

  9. Hi Miss Cecilia. So…that must be why I am not allowed in the bed. The furniture is lower, so I’m allowed on it. And anyway, try to stop me, BOL!! XOX Xena

  10. Xena I am so very happy for the update on your BGS. Thankfully all behind you.
    OMDs you will never believe what Angel Madi’s Vet told me after her spaying (way back in 2002), when I picked her up he said, NO JUMPING, to which I replied you do know she is a CAT right? MOL MOL MOL
    Hugs Cecilia

  33. Xena, I am so happy you’re home! I know it’s no fun and you feel like you’ve been sliced and diced. Geez, I didn’t want to scare you but I never lied….you feel like crap but really it doesn’t last and you’ll be back to yourself and keeping Lucy hopping. Just think no more big girl problems either.
