Wish us luck

My dog Norman goes in for a major ortho surgery tomorrow. Please send us your good vibes at about 9 am Canada west coast time. He is having a cruciate ligament repair done on his right knee. (like the olympic skiers) I have great faith in my vet, (i should she is my boss, and a good friend) so i am not too worried, but you know sometimes things just happen. This will be my 3rd surgery on as many dogs so the lesson learned is "when you get a big dog put aside a whack of money and be prepared to cry" thats why they call them the heartbreak breeds. Anyways, wish us luck,
Kim

Norman's surgery went really well today. His epidural worked perfectly, and his surgery was done in just over an hour. He is on some heavy duty painkillers and is resting comfortable in my foyer on a bed. He was on painkillers before surgery so he is bleeding from his incision (like what asprin does) but the vet says that should stop in a day or so. He is pretty tired, but has eaten his diner and (although he is milking it for all its worth) i think he is feeling ok. Thanks for the best wishes from all of the above. If you like i will post some more updates on this forem.
Cheers
Kim
