Prayers for my puppy-update--just found out she may have a brain tumor

[Lady Renee Buchanan]

At church, during the prayers of the people, I entered Bonnie's name.  So our entire church prayed for her, too.  Glad she's doing so well after the surgery.

[Tipsy Gypsy]

Woo hoo! Now comes the challenge of keeping her confined and quiet until she heals. 

Wishing her well very soon!

I have been meaning to post and update...not enough hours in the day lately !
   The first week after the surgery she just layed around.  We literally had to carry her in and out, which was lots of fun.   The next week  she started limping a round on three weeks, but refused to go outside  to go to the bathroom. Unfortunately all the Exits out of my house involved going down  stairs or steps.  ( the one thing i would have change if i had built  the house  ). we had to bribe her to get her to go out.  Then  she started going down the steps, but would stumble  comming up them.  Down she can of hobbles on  three legs and drags  the one she had the surgery on.  She got her stitches out last week,a nd the vet said she should start using the bad leg, and  that she will check her again in a couple weeks.
  I think it must be healing and itching her. she licks at it like crazy.
        My husband says she looks like one of  the Teletubbies  from the children's  tv  shows, because she has no fur at all on her sides or  her belly. she looks like some one scalped her.    But  overall she seems to be doing better then before the surgery.  Atleast she does not have the heavy labored breathing that she had prior  to the surgery. Would scare both me and my husband  at night. We were not sure whether she  was going to make it some nights.   But she is a strong little  girl ! Not to mention smart too.   Me thinks she may be milky this  injury abit  , cause she will be limping around, but as soon as you go for any  food, she comes  running.

so gald to hear she is doing better. yup, sounds like she could be milking it a bit.

whenever I go near the fridge..my ancient collie all of a sudden comes out looking like a 2 yr. old! very funny.

UPDATE  NOV  26 2008.

the last couple  days  we noticed  Bonnie  falling  down  the  stairs.   Acting like  she  was  drunk.   He  fur  still has not  grown back  in  from her surgery earlier  this  year.    Her face is sunken in  abit on  one  side.       We took her  to the vet,  and  the  vet  think  she  may have  a brain  tumor.  The only way  to know  for  sure  is  to have  an MRI  done  on her.  But i guess all her symptoms     fit  that of  atumor. 
  i am numb inside  right  now.  She  was  doing  so  well, except  for  the fact that hair  was not growing  back  in.      This is  suppose  to be  the festive  holiday season, but i don't feel  very festive  right  now.       I feel like  i have  ben slapped in the face.  after all i went  thru  with my own illness, etc...  here evrything  was  finally looking  good  and  back  to normal    for  a change,  and  now  this.
   She is  such a good  dog.  she is  still young.  she  does not deserve  this.   She is  the  sweetest, good  natured  loving  dog.      I know  some  people have it much  worse  right  now, but  please  pray  fro  Bonnie.      My liitle boy is  so attached  to her.   I  don't  want  her  to die  and  ruin his  Christmas.   I  don't want her    to die  period, i should  say.
      Life  can be  so unfair  at times  !
                          Thankyou in advance.  peace and  love   to  you all.

Sending good thoughts your way!
And ((hugs)) for you all!

[Amras Elfwine]

A candle is lit, and white magic meditations are sent Bonnie's way. I lost my Frodo years ago, and understand...

[Lady Neysa]

Goodness, you poor dear!  My heart goes out to you and your dog.  Try to give her as much love and comfort as you can during this difficult time.
