He is coming round from the anaesthetic, and the vet says it went very well indeed. I should have him back on Monday.

I don't get to keep the teeth because the entire resected part has to go to the path lab and be treated with formalin which makes it toxic so they can't save any of it. This is so the path lab can confirm the diagnosis and double check that the margins are clear and Mouth Thing is dead for good and all. I did rather want to hang the teeth on my necklace, one each side of my tiger's eye circle, but hey, I get my dog back so I don't really care about that.

Cassie is going batshit bored without him and driving me crazy in turn, but we'll deal.

Thank you all for commenting and being all-round awesome. I've been a bit too frazzled to answer each one yet but I've read everything

I GET MY DOG BACK OMG YAY!

I'm doing it right now. Three days. Jesus god. Overnight nearly killed me once.

Still it's so much better than never.

Glad to hear it went well but omg Monday! Marlowe had to spend four days at the vet once and it sucked—though they were nice and I got to visit him lots.

Glad everything worked out. At least there is light at the end of the tunnel finally.

From: [identity profile] miz-geek.livejournal.com


I'm so glad to hear he made it through okay. Daisy was in the hospital for a week over Christmas and it SUCKED! I hope Monday comes soon.

monday seems like a lifetime away, but i guess not so bad compared with the alternative.

i'm so glad everything went well!

It'll be a long three days but OMFG YAY GO SPIKE GO

From: [identity profile] ghost07.livejournal.com


Whew! I'm so glad...but Monday! Do you get to visit him this weekend?

Poor Cassie, too...she must love him like a brother.

Here's to Monday...{{{HUGS}}}

SPIIIIKE. I shall brush up on my papier mache skills post haste. GO SPIKE GO. I bet he ends up driving the vets nuts.

Oh dear, I keep missing all this stuff (stupid No Internet), but I'm really glad Spike's come out the other side of this thing.

From: [identity profile] yesididit.livejournal.com


glad he made it thru surgery and i hope they got all the bad crap out for good! monday seems like its sooooo far away!

From: [identity profile] dalaire.livejournal.com


Hoorah! Way to go, Spike! :^)

All the best to Monday. I know that wait all too well. But ah, what a good day it will be.

What are they saying about recovery care? --Or have they talked about that, yet?
ext_15855: (Default)

From: [identity profile] lizblackdog.livejournal.com


Not much about recovery care yet; I think we all didn't want to tempt fate by discussing it before the surgery. I don't really know what it's going to be like; but I have watched Spike adapt very quickly to not using the front of his mouth to do anything and I'm confident he'll do well.

bloody hell it's quiet here today.

and thank you <3

From: [identity profile] orac-zen.livejournal.com


Good riddance to mouth thing and best wishes for Spike's future health.

*** hugs and good thoughts ***

From: [identity profile] baranduyn.livejournal.com


I knew he was having his surgery. Gabriel for no reason let out a howl in his sleep that nearly killed me from surprise.

Be well Spike. Sorry about the teeth Liz.
