Home from hospital :) PICS
I got home from the hospital yesterday afternoon.
Pain is manageable, walking is alright, coughing SUCKS.
Overall I am doing A LOT better than I thought I would be.
I added some pictures. I am kinda new to the how the site works so let me know if you can't see them.
I am mortified with how it looks; but will reserve judgement until much further out. I have had many surgeries and understand that things will change over time.
Any of you look like this after surgery?
Can't wait to chat with everyone!!!!
I have SO many questions for the vets!

Hello all!
Been a while since I've posted on here, was busy having a baby! LOL
I go in tomorrow at 830 for surgery at 1030.
I'm freaking out a lil! I just feel so unprepared!
I have cleaned the whole house, made some easy dinners so it's easier for dh to feed us and I am going to pack my bag and take pre-op pics tonight.
I feel like I am just sitting here on my hands, doing nothing! I don't know what to do to feel ready for it!
I am having a lot of anxious feelings about recovery more than the surgery itself. Hoping 5 days of dh being home will be enough...
Any advice will be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks for listening
