Bonny (the dog) had surgery on Monday, had her leg rebandaged this evening and within three hours her foot had severely swelled. I took her to the emergency vet and have left her there overnight for observation. I explained everything to the vet, brought her meds, etc. After explaining everything - he paused and then asked me if I was in the medical field.
I looked him in the eye and said,
"Nope. I'm just observant, well read, and smart."
He did not disagree.
I'm proud that I didn't break down until I was home and in the shower. I allowed myself five minutes of freak out, then I had to get my shit together and get on with it.
Goodnight. Here's hoping Bonny doesn't have to have emergency surgery overnight just because her bandage was way too tight.
