Well, I thought we were just going in for a mani/pedi this morning, but as with most things in life, it was a little more complicated than that. My poor bubbe has an abscess in his mouth that needs to be fixed, so he's going to have surgery on Wednesday morning.
I was doing just fine until the vet tech came out and said that they needed to see me back in the exam room. (Normally they take Stewey back and do whatever it is they do and return him to me freshly pedicured and happy to see me.) Today, though, I walked in to find him being cuddled by his favorite assistant with a look on his face that said "How could you let this happen to me?"
Good grief, Charlie Brown! I broke out into the ugly cry and practically had to be sedated.
So, if you would, please keep us in your thoughts these next couple of days. I'm sure Stewey will be fine...it's me I'm worried about! I will take him in on Wednesday morning at 7:30 and should be able to pick him up later that day so nobody will need to supervise me overnight.
Do you think they would let me crawl up on the table and hold him during the surgery?
Oey....they really should make pills for this.
I am so the same way with Emma. I am more of a wreck than she is when she has to have anything done! I'm sure Stewey will be fine, too! Take care, the both of you!
ReplyDeleteI'm the same with my two, I'm sure little Stewy will be fine but we'll keep him in our thoughts. You as well!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad they found this when they did...abscesses can be nasty things if they go on too long. Yes, it IS very scary - but it would be far scarier if his appointment had been next week or the week after. I'll keep you both in my thoughts and prayers!
ReplyDeleteSending love and best healing wishes to Stewie (and comforting thoughts for you!). Will look forward to your updates following his procedure. Thanks for all you share with us.
ReplyDeleteThese things are always harder on Mother than patient. Forget about stitching........go with your coloring books on Wednesday. Poor Baby will need liquid filet migon for a few days.
ReplyDeleteBest to you both, I know how hard this will be for you but I'm sure it will turn out fine. Take care and get well quick Stewey :)
ReplyDeleteGood thoughts flying your way from France. Be brave, I'm sure Stewey will be fine and he'll have you waiting on him hand and foot!
ReplyDeleteI wish Stewey a speedy recovery and calming thoughts are being sent to you! And lots of hugs!!
ReplyDeleteSending loving thoughts from Arizona to you and Stewey....
ReplyDeleteOh no! I am sure that Stewey will be fine and dandy in no time at all...
ReplyDeleteYou probably do not want to know about Chatty and his teeth. I took him in for a cleaning and he came home less 4 teeth (one of them being one of his large cat canines) now when he smiles at us...he looks like Hillbilly Chatty... :) He still loves us though! Hang in there!
Aw, I'm so sorry! I'm sure he will be fine. Sounds like you have a very good vet tech!
ReplyDeletePoor Stewey! I know you will worry about him the entire time he's at the vet's office.
ReplyDeleteWishing Stewey (and YOU!) a smooth procedure, and happy treats afterward for getting through it all.
ReplyDeletePoor little guy. I'm sure you will both make it through the ordeal with flying colors. I will be thinking of you.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear your guy needs dental work done. Sending good thoughts his way that all goes well and he has a speedy recovery.
ReplyDeleteConi, so sorry to hear this. Sending prayers for you and Stewey. Please let us know when he's home and how he's doing. Cathryn
ReplyDeleteConi, so sorry to hear about poor Stewey, Keeping you both in my prayers. You do know he will expect the royal treatment when he comes home and perhaps some tea and sympathy! Big Hugs, Becki
ReplyDeleteOh poor Stewey...and his Mo-ther! I will be sending lots of thoughts of comfort for you both, and hugs as well.
ReplyDeletePlease keep us all posted on how you both are doing.
Hugs
best wishes for a speedy recovery to Stewey.
ReplyDeleteOh no! Bless his heart and yours too!
