Yesterday (and still today) was very emotional as I took Gracie to have surgery on her bad eye. Basically, it was removed. I hated dropping her off in the mornin and to be very honest I was really afraid of losing her. I’ll be honest when I say I had a good cry when I left the hospital. That said, Gracie did great with the surgery. According to Dr. Enders she came in and out of anesthesia well, and her blood work was very good. The only issue is that she was a little dehydrated, but her kidney numbers were good.
Then I got to bring her home and I went from being very happy to being very worried again. Gracie has pretty much been hiding in the basement since coming home. She’s also not eating much although I was able to get her to eat some whipped cream. Not the best, but better than nothing.
I also just upset her when I tried wiping some smudges off of her collar that she has to wear. I decided to give her some space, but I’m also going to call the hospital about her not eating. Needless to say I’m going to do my best to help her through the healing process.
