Our handsome boy is out of surgery and recovering well!! I just got another update from the surgeon that he is alert and doing great – he’s already rolling over on his incision so she’s know that he’s feeling good in happy land with a nice doggie cocktail! 🙂 I’ve been keeping myself super busy today cooking his meals for the next couple days, getting stuff caught up around the house, and preparing the house ready for his return home…oh, and lets not forget moving our bedroom downstairs to the living so he can avoid stairs for a few weeks. I also ordered the ruff wear harness for him and overnighted it. I know that this battle is nowhere near won – but if this cancer thing has taught me anything so far..it’s to take one day at a time!! To celebrate the small wins everyday, and to stay positive and take things as they come! Next chapter is to get my baby boy home and take recover slow and easy as we learn together how we do things with 3 legs. 🙂 A HUGEEE thank you to everyone who’s been supporting us through this past 7 days..your support honestly has gotten us through and kept me so strong!! Now, mama bear can finally breathe for a bit and sit down to relax tonight and rest up for tomorrow!
Sloppy Rotty kisses,
Kate & (my currently high as a kite) Bentley 🙂
Heres our morning pre-surgery pictures, and pictures of my stand-in cooking assistants today! 🙂
Excellent! The journey is just beginning, but surgery is a huge part of that journey, and I’m glad it’s over and Bentley is doing well! Soon, Bentley will be back home where he belongs, on the road to recovery!!
Good news! So glad to hear things went well. My daughter is a Rottie mom, so I know how wonderful they can be.
Kate,
You sound like you have the right attitude for this journey and Bentley sounds like a true warrior. Good luck!
