Ashe's Surgery
Well Ashe had her surgery today. The prognosis isn't very good :( It wasn't a tooth abscess. It ended up being in her muscle tissue. And it wasn't one that was like a pocket that the vet could just remove or treat or whatever they do and it heal.
She drained and flushed it a bunch and got all the debris out that she could, but it most likely will not go away. She said there is no telling how it got in there. It could have been something in her bloodstream, or food, or anything. But since it's in the muscle the outlook is poor :(
I didn't get to bring her home today because the vet had some emergencies come in and so they didn't get her surgery done until late afternoon. I go pick her up tomorrow.
I guess I will just treat her with antibiotics as long as I can until she starts suffering and can't eat or seems in pain.
I will just try and have good thoughts because it's all made me really sad. I took these pics of her about a week ago. The blower is her boyfriend. It broke and Pat was going to throw it away when he got a new one, but I kept seeing her laid up against it all the time so we left it out there for her.
