    Buster needs well wishes --UPDATE!!

    Buster went in for surgery just about a half hour ago to have a perianal mass/tumor removed.  He is 12 years old and my baby.  I am so worried about him and having this surgery at his age.  The vet worries that it may be cancerous so we had to remove it.  On my way home I just cried and cried, I didn't realize just how upset I was about this.  [:(]  The surgery was supposed to be on Tuesday, but they had to reschedule.  I had taken the whole day off from both jobs just so I could be the one who drops him off and picks him up.  Now today I could only get off one job and I have to go in at 4 so I won't be the one picking him up; I feel terrible.

    Send us your good thoughts, we need them.  I know you guys are so good with that. [;)]

    HUGE good thoughts and vibes for a successful, uneventful surgery for Buster, who you know, I am quite enamored of!!! So sorry about the reschedule and it's impact to yours - that has to be hard!!!

    may his surgery be as easy as my mini-poodle mix's (@ age 14) was - was only an infection in the tissue - quick in & out and great recovery - my thoughts are with you - so are the packs

    I just about died when the phone rang just a bit ago.  The vet isn't supposed to call until around 2 (I feared something was wrong)...I need today to go by quickly.

    Sending well wishes for Buster.  I know how hard it is when our babies are ill.
     
    Hang in there - I know how difficult it is.   Just try and take alot of deep breaths and concentrate on keeping calm.   If you're religious prayer helps alot.

    The surgeon just called me with good news!  He came through with no problems and I could hear him barking/screaming in the background (that's normal for him, nothing to worry about)!!
     
    So my baby will be coming home around the time I go to work and I will get to see him tonight.
     
    She did find a tumor in his jaw, but she believes it is benign so we will be watching it for growth. 
     
    But thanks for the well wishes![:D]

    So glad that the surgery is over and went well. I'm sure that's a big relief for you that it's over. And I'm glad that you get to be with him tonight.
