I was FOREWARNED that there would be lots of leakage, so guess what? I was prepared for it and dealt with it how I was told to. How nice when people let ya know what might happen! I like the new vet!Â
Last night there were a few icky moments with the drainage tube, but he's really being a trooper... really! I can't use the harness on him anymore either because the tube is so long, and he hasn't worn a collar since the surgery. So now I have to use a short little leash that goes over his shoulder on his incision side so as not to bug it. It works ok, but I am always paranoid because I know my Kraymer sometimes takes on Cujo's role while we are outside and I have a lot less control with the incision friendly leash. I am on my toes walking him!!!
We canceled the trip to see my friends in NC. I told R that I wanted to go, badly, but in all reality I would just be buggin the crap out of the petsitter always asking for updates, and I would be wondering what was going on and if he was doing ok and if there was a blood stain somewhere that needed shout etc. etc. etc. so, we canceled. Plus walking him on this not so sturdy leash is a pain. And the warm compresses are time consuming. And cleaning the drainage site is something only a 'fur mother" could tolerate without gloves and being disgusted.
I do feel for the bubba though because I don't want to bug the site too much, so I am only cleaning a bit of his fur off. It's going to be sooo matted! But I figure right now making sure I get the drainage site clean is of utmost importance. I can cut his fur around the site later to rid him of mats.
Anywho! I heard on the news today that there is an overweight representatives group that is going to protest Disney for saying that the overall "larger" American population is sinking the boats on it's a small world. Not really sinking, but they are hitting bottom which halts the ride and causes problems. How can you protest this? It's a fact. They are temporarily shutting down the ride to better accommodate the fact that most Americans are FA's now. Be happy they aren't specifying a certain weight maximum, ya know? They do it with height after all, and that's something you can't control at all!  Â
I think there's bigger things in life to protest.
glad kraymer got the drainage tube in. and that he is so happy.
