Teddy

Tomorrow is Teddy's surgery. There will not be a post because The Blog Tech is accompanying his father for the trip to the hospital. It is 4 hours away. I am a chicken and am staying home. My husband always takes her to the vet and I don't want to change the routine. Plus they have to leave at 3:30 am. That is an hour before I usually get up. Plus I have an aversion to hospitals. This is me trying to explain away being a chicken. I hate seeing my puppy scared or hurting.


Hey Teddy...could you like try to hold still and let me take your picture? She hates it when I point the camera at her. Take a good look at this cute face because it will be quite a while until she looks this way again. They have to shave her face to do the surgery. She is going to be a very strange looking puppy for a while.


I am quite a bit more at ease since the surgeon has written to me about 5 times now. I asked every question possible. I probably drove them crazy.


The surgeon and the anesthesiologist will meet with The Blog Tech and my husband before surgery and go over everything. I will report back on Thursday!

Wishing Teddy good luck and hope she will soon be her usual self.
The way Teddy is holding her ears and head, I think she
"feels" something is up.

She is in my thoughts and prayers, and so are you.

A few weeks from now, Teddy will thank you profusely. In the mean time, she will take advantage of all the spoiling she can.

Hello Jaz,
I'm thinking about Teddy and sending light and good thoughts. Everything's going well!
Do not worry Teddy is always beautiful, even with a weird haircut :)

She has her puppy face on again! Sometimes she looks more adult, like when she is on patrol, but other times, like in these photos, she looks like she is a youngster, still growing. I see just a tip of that blue tongue too!

No one will chuckle over her shaved face. .animals can be quite sensitive when they know that they look different. We would never want to hurt her feelings!

She is going to feel SO much better after she gets her eyes fixed. Being an almost life long contact lens wearer, I can relate to having something scraping your eye. It isn't pleasant. She will probably be walking around with that puppy smile of her's, all of the time!

My thoughts and prayers join everyone else, for a safe operation and a speedy recovery! We all love Teddy!!!
I'll be thinking of Teddy and all of you tomorrow -- wishing Teddy nothing but good luck, a successful operation and quick healing! Hugs to all!

Bella and I will be thinking of Teddy!

I fully understand how You feel! It´s never easy when they are sick and especially not when they have to go through surgery.

Oh dear, a mama's worries can never be contained - nor can our love and devotion. Your Teddy girl is going to be JUST FINE. You (like me, oh boy) asked all your questions (there's no such thing as too many), you've done your research and now it's just getting the dang thing over with. And well said, Ana_Didi - Teddy will always be beautiful, even with a nutty hair job. :-) :-)
Will keep Teddy and you in my thoughts tomorrow - please post when she gets back home?

You are Teddy are in my prayers. I'll keep a candle burning for her tomorrow and I'll be looking forward to reading good news on Thursday.

Teddy is sooooo cute!
Big hug and a kiss to Teddy in the morning. I'll have Annie and Mazzy say special prayers for her tonight. I have a good feeling about her surgery. Make her something special to eat after she feels better.

Hoping Teddy does well in surgery and is back home quickly... before the ache in your heart gets too big.

Lots of hugs and good thoughts heading Teddy's way. It's very scary to be away from her family but knowing she will be so much better makes it easier. Try to get some rest, yourself.

July 27th...

Saw a comment by you, on another blog... Clicked on your name and came over... My first visit here, in a long time...

I see that Teddy is having surgery.

And because of Synchrinosity,
I'm thus able to wish you and Teddy well.

Gentle hugs,

The fact that you have talked so much in letters with the Doctor and that your husband and son are taking Teddy in and talking with them again, makes me feel SO much better!
I just know that everything will be fine but I'm sending you happy positive thoughts anyway!
Can't hardly wait for your post update!
Take care, Cindi
