Bevd Posted October 17, 2007 Author Share Posted October 17, 2007 I've spoken to the vet nurse just now and Darcy was apparently 'chuffed to get her breakfast'. She's been wagging her tail and she's moved herself around a bit. She's also been trying to sit up a bit (eek). There's about 2" of humerus left apparently but we'll not see it once her fuzz has grown back. I asked if she had a bandage on (pink preferably) and she said "no - what's to bandage?" I explained that Darcy may like a bandage for effect. (Joke). So the vet will give me a call later when they've assessed her properly and then we'll arrange to collect her some time this afternoon.

silverfish Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 (edited) Awwww. :wub: She's a character, isn't she? And she seems to be doing incredibly well! Here's hoping that she'll beat all the records and be with you for a very long time to come.

Bevd Posted October 17, 2007 Author Share Posted October 17, 2007 Been out and got a small animal pen thingy to barrier off an area of the living room. Then got new quilts and quilt covers (in living room colours). And a new stuffed toy dog. (Vital). The vets rang just as we got home to say that Darcy got up pretty sharpish when she was encouraged to do so but it then really tired her to get up the stairs (the hospital area is in the basement) and she had to have a rest part way up. She also did a wee on the stairs and she was upset about that. So rather than putting her back in her kennel (and therefore having to do the stairs again - and then again when we collect her), she's been moved to one of the consulting rooms, like where she was yesterday when we left her. We're going in at 3pm to see the vet and go through her x-rays etc etc and then bring her home. Eeek.
