She had to have another surgery yesterday on both back legs- one leg now has a drain inserted and is in a total leg splint, the foot on the other leg had to be cleaned out and restitched. There was no way that she was going to be able to walk with both legs splinted or casted so the bad foot now has a leather type boot and the dressing has to be changed out 2 times a day. She refused to get up and try to walk until about 10:30 last nite, but she was able to hobble out doors this morning for a few minutes. The biggest challenge is that she cant not get back up the steps by herself- so we have to help her, and she is heavy.
My daughter is scheduled for knee surgery again on tuesday ( same knee that was operated on in April ) so she will be home for the next two weeks and I figure that the dog and the daughter can recouperate together. At least I wont have to be loading Zoey up every morning to take her to a sitter- so that will be nice.
