As most of you know,
I went to the dogtow a few weeks ago cause I had some blood in my peepee
and he did all sowts of test and ultwa sounds and xways and gave me medicins
the blood cleewed up, but what he saw on the pictoowes wemained the same and he told my pawents that I needed suwgewies to take it out and have it tested in case it was sumething that coold make me lots and lots sickew
the dogtows explained it all to Mommi, who of couwse was vewy scawed...but they set up the time fow the suwgewy and all of you, my soopew wondewful fwiendses, sent me the POFT and pwayews and good vibes and I was shoowe I woold be all wight
so this mowning we set off fow the five minute walk to the Dogtow's office fow the suwgewy
It was a bwight sunny mowning, but cold, so I wowe my coat
Daddi walked me and Mommi tooked pictoowes
it only took us fouw minutes to walk thewe
the dogtow's office on the banks of the Danoobe Wivew
hewe we awe going into the office
thewe wewe some othew doggies thewe fow emewgencies, so I had to wait a few minutes
thewe wewe two dogtows who would do my suwgewy and anothew one to take cawe of any othew sick fuwkids
Mommi told me she loved me and evewything would be all wight and that evewyone was thinking of me wif love and good enewgies and pwayews
One of the dogtows shaved my leggie and put in an IV while the sweet nuwsie held me
I was vewy bwave about it all and then they took me to the othew woom and told Mommi and Daddi to go home and the woold call when I woke up
Mommi paced and chewed hew fingews wowwying, but they called an houw an a half latew and said I was awake , but would have to stay thewe till 4:30 so they coold make shoowe I was weady to go home
hewe I am finally all done and weady to go home
the dogtows said visooally, evewything looked good...thewe is a thickening and slight gweying of the submoocosa of my bladdew, but they didn't see any cawcinoma looking thingies ow bleeding ow othew cweepy stuff.
they took out scwapings and samples and will send it fow all the big tests
DON'T LOOK IF YOOW SQUEE MISH
(I guess I'm a membew of the scaw belly club now)
hewe I am wif my howwid cone , my tail is down..I hate it, but it's impawtant to not lick my tum tum and get infecshuns , so I guess I'll have to just gwin and beaw it
the hawdest will be the two to thwee weeks we have to wait fow the wesults of the lab tests, but so faw, so good and the dogtows wewe vew vewy OPTOMISTIC
I want to thank all of you fow those thoughts and pwayews ..I know I will be OK
I might even dance by Valentine's day
smoochie kisses

We will be saying lots of prayers for you - just to make sure all the results are good. Now you be a good girl and leave that wound alone OKAY!
PS - You are still the prettiest and sweetest little Asta! Make sure Mom and Dad give you lots of treats and cuddles - just give them the 'sad eyes' look - works every time :)
We're so relieved that you're home and the surgery is over with the doctors sounding optimistic.
We love you and have been thinking about you and your mommi and daddi constantly and will continue to do so until that horrid cone is gone and the results come back!
Love from your Barkalot pals and their mom and dad!
Jake and Just Harry
Thanks for the update, Asta. We wanted to hear what was going on from you, and are relieved that things are looking good. Be brave about the cone. Those things are horrible, but sadly necessary.
Gentle Woofs,
Tommy
We are sending the power of the paw that all tests are negative. I'm glad the doctor didn't see anything bad!!
Welcome to the conehead club! (we saw a tee shirt at Tailwaggers that read "it's all fun and games until somebody ends up in a cone!") glad to hear your surgery went well. Hope you're getting lots of treats --I think the vet tech gave me a half a jar of liver treats after my eye surgery. And insist on sleeping in the very center of the bed, it's the most comfy spot. I'll keep my paws crossed for a great follow up report.
Your pal,
Petey

A CONE??? THE CONE OF SHAME??? Nurse Aggie, can we not remove that from her??? NO????
Lacie waddles quickly to the blender (she seems to have overdone it on the cake Auntie Mommi has generously provided for her Barkday...) grabs an Anti Cone Smoothie and quickly gives it to Asta before Aggie sees it. There, my dear BFF...have another before the evil witch I mean dear Nurse Agatha returns from the Ladies. At least you won't care about it...I'm on night turn tonight...we'll take it off then, my dear....
Soooooooo glad today is over with!! Just let me smooth the sheets for you and gather up my knitting. Archie, you might want to stop the tuba...it's a bit loud, dear...
Yes, of course Gussie can sleep up here...we'll just hide him under the covers!!
Sweet dreams!!

Oh Asta - I have only heard of your medical issue today... mum and I have not been on the computer much in the last few weeks. How scary for you and your peeps - thank heavens they did not find anythingy skeery inside you! I have everything crossed that the test results will be good....
My mum wants to say when I had my plastic cone of shame on she felt very sorry for me - and she got the scissors and cut down the plastic by about 4 or 5 centimetres or so .... and it made a big difference to my seeing stuff and not banging it into things.... but I still could not reach my owchie. My mum reckons yours could do with a little trimming too. Just sayin'.
Love to all, Tail Wuggles, Rubie xxx
We are glad you are home Asta and feeling better!! We are glad you have have no bad stuff!! Feel better soon and lots of hugs and prayers from your TX furiends!

Asta,
I heard about your surgery from Susie and Sidebites and I am so glad that everything is ok and it is nothing scary or dangerous!! I wish I had checked earlier as the info I'm sending may be too late, but there are some more comfortable alternatives to the cone of shame: http://laceysbarkery.com/blog/2013/01/27/the-cone-of-shame-elizabethan-collar-or-e-collar-tips-and-techniques/
I just did a post on it because Willow had eye surgery (she's fine!). She couldn't use any of the alternatives because they would still allow her to scratch her eye, but you might be able to use them.
Anyway, you are a cutie and I hope you feel much better real soon!

Oh my poor dear sweet Miss Asta, how howwible! I have been sick all week and didn't know! I will pway WEWee hawd fow yew. Does yow Mom give you mushwooms? They awe 80% pwotein, and vewy good to help the body heal itself aftew suwgewy.
Happier days to you all vewy soon.
Leah
P.S. (Did you notice that I twied to speak Fox Tewwier, just for you?)
P.S.#2 Tell your Mommi I advise copious amounts of chocolate for her to calm her nerves after your ordeal. (Actually, I would advise copious amounts of chocolate after a hangnail. "Copious" might be too much chocolate for her. Better tell her to cut all that chocolate with some luscious caramel. Yes. That'll work. She's welcome.)
Hi Asta, we're happy to hear your surgery went well. Now we are revving up our purr motors so that you get a good report from the doctor!

It's Sunday and we just talked Teri into letting us visit a little and we came to see how you were doing. We are glad the vets found no 'C' and Teri said doggies get Interstitial cystitis like kitties and humans do. Brighton has FIC (Feline Interstitial Cystitis) and it affects the lining of the bladder.
We hopes you feel better soon and Disco said he and you could compare belly scars one day ('cept your belly is fit and trim and his isnt, hahameow!)
Asta, keep us posted - we are all keeping our paws corssed here for you and your two legged ones.
You look very smart in your jacket!
Woof

Asta, my dear! I just heard that you had surgery on Friday. Our paws are crossed for good test results and we're sending healing vibes your way. Get back on all four feet real soon, sweet thing!
Glad to hear that all is well. Purring and praying for good results from the test. Rest well, sweetie! Hugs to your Mommi and Daddi. Must have been a worrying time for them.
