Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy- Good Bye Flynny We will miss you

They said they stay until they are happy he is OK, I told her I want to visit and she said that is probably alright they will just have to tee it up with the staff to let me in... weird I thought if emergency 24hr service then you could just walk in

I don't know what Advil is, we do not have that. Have taken Paracetamol

Thanks for dinner, sounds yum... but starting to feel sick, just had a coughing fit and nearly puked... gawd no I am sounding like a drama queen and I hate that

They would not do that would they? Operate on Flynn and then go home? The surgeon would not leave before he wakes up would he?

Can you go there and stay with him? Would they let you? Maybe they would let you.

Call back and ask them to clarify for you.

You dont sound like a drama queen and geeze it is not like you arent entitled to sound like one if you wanted to, ;);)

They have to clear it for you to go in the back. They did for me to go get Zoe. They wanted me to walk into the back and take her out of the cage and leave with her so it all had to be cleared that I could go into the back where she was recouperating in her cage. They did not want the staff to handle her, I dont know why.

So that is what they meant I think.

Yes, under the circumstances and with your training and all, I wonder if they'd let you stay with him. I do hope so!

Squirt had her spleen surgery and went back for four days due to a pancreas flare in a hospital like that. During the day it was a specialty vet clinic; at night it was an ER only clinic. BUT the staff took excellent care of her and a nurse or vet checked on her constantly - I know because I called all the time and read her chart when they let me see her. :o:p And my copies of her surgical files note every time someone saw her or did anything - and it was every few minutes at times, especially just after surgery and when she first had to go back. Her surgeon and IMS wandered through frequently as well - I decided they had no lives! :D

I felt like you at first but after calling so much and being able to talk to someone who could tell me minute details, I felt much better. And seriously - I called SO much, they finally gave me a schedule as to when they would call me with a report. :o There were 3 land lines and 2 cell phones in that house and I couldn't see one and not call!...and I saw them all the time because I paced and roamed constantly. :D They were almost as glad as I was to see her come home. ;)

Advil is ibprophen. I bet that Addy is right and that is what they meant, cleared to go into the back. well as long as they stay till they are sure. IMS on duty as plenty of experience too?
Drama queen nah Nervous mum yep and I would prob be much worse :-)
Now rest!

At this hospital you couldn't walk in - you had to either call ahead and have them meet you or go to the back door and use the speaker system. Their focus was on the animals in the clinic - both the ER cases and surgical cases from the day time. Walk-ins would be a distraction they didn't need. ;)

Hi all. Well I am finally home from work, and it looks like just in time for dinner! Sounds yummy Marianne!! :) Trish you are absolutely not a drama queen, nerves can get the best of all of us and this is stressful. I agree with the others, ask if they would let you just sit with him in between them doing their checks. I think it is 3 there now.....

They just started surgery... come on Flynn boy I love you xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

PAWS UP FLYNNY BOY- MAMA AND THE GANG LOvE AND NEED YOU
