Hi everyone, I want to fill everyone in on Gracie's recovery from having her femural ball removed. You all have been so supportive and I would have posted earlier, but Gracie has been fairly demanding and I haven't had the time to touch my computer, let alone post something. She has finally graduated to the main floor of the house where the computer is so maybe I'll get to atleast read the forum occasionally now.
She was very, very angry with me at first and I understand that. I'm her mom and I let this happen to her. She's kind of settled in, she's uncomfortable but not painful. (I hope) She is using her other bad hip a little too much for my liking to compensate for the surgical hip. She goes back to the ortho on Tuesday for stitch removal and I'll check with her on this. I HOPE we don't end up finishing off the other hip during the recovery on this one.
She is lying on the deck chewing a bone at the moment giving me time to come in and post. It felt great to sleep in my own bed last night and Gracie felt the same way
.
Got to run so I can try to catch up on some of the posts I've been missing.
