Sasha could use some positive thoughts today. Her knee hasn't healed completely from the strain/sprain at Thanksgiving. So, today she is at the vet hospital at OSU to have surgery. If the ligament is torn or damaged they will do a TPLO. They couldn't be certain from the x-rays and physical exam.
Please think of my little Sasha today! :'(

they'll put her under and test her knee for dorr motion and then do their thing. but it sounds like what i heard that fateful day exactly 12 weeks ago today.
Good Luck! God's Speed!!!

good luck, hope everything comes out great!

Thanks everyone! I think the positive thoughts are helping! :)
I just heard from the surgeon and the good news is that the ligament is not torn. The bad news is that the cruciate ligament and the meniscus are a little "discolored". We'll have to wait for the biopsy results. In the meantime, Sasha's knee has been stabilized with a nylon (?) cord in the hopes of preventing further damage.
Sasha is in the recovery/ICU ward for now and won't get to come home for several days. :( She is waking up though and did just fine in surgery.
Thanks again everyone! Please keep Sasha in your thoughts.

Sasha is recovering well at the vet hospital. I wish she was closer to home so we could see her...OSU is about 3 hours from us. She had some water last night and the vet called this morning to say she is doing well today. We should be able to bring her home on Friday or Saturday.
I'm pretty worried about the biopsy results though...hopef ully it won't be anything serious.
Please keep Sasha in your thoughts!
