CleosMom Posted March 13, 2008 Author Share Posted March 13, 2008 Tania's update from 10:30 last night: "I went to see Cannon right after work. What can I tell you, except my boy was out of it and he looks so strange without his beautiful white leg. Dr G gave me a few moments alone to swallow it all in. He was on heavy antibiotics, a patch for pain, and morphine. He did not recognize me at all but I had the opportunity to talk to him, to tell him I loved him, and pet his head. The surgery looks like a clean one." On behalf of Tania, thank you so much for your prayers and good thoughts for Cannon.

Guest cannonsmom Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Hi everyone! Thank you so much for all the wonderful words, thoughts and prayers. Jen (cleosmom) thanks for being such a wonderful friend. I wish I had you here in the states closer to me so I could go over and hug you just because you are such a ROCK. Leslie (ryzesmom) thanks for being who you are! there is nothing better than a greyhound-loving-feisty-nurse! A woman after my own heart! thanks for all the medical advice. Patricia thanks for the inspiring email, like many of us on here, I know you felt my pain. Lene...youre just the greatest! always there..... and whomever else I missed, even those who dont know me personally, dont think for one second that I dont cherish your compassion for a dog you dont know. We are all one here...with the same cause-LOVING OUR GREYHOUNDS AND EVERYONE ELSES. CANNON IS HOME, and I wouldnt want him to be anywhere else but here with us. its [the amputation] is still so hard to look at. I just keep saying, I hope he forgives me for taking his leg, I just want him to be free of pain. it does seem like he is back to normal except for the meds which are keeping him pretty dopey. Every once in a while he pops up from his bed and just stands there panting and then lays back down on the amputation side? Why does he do that? I tried to flip him over to the left side but he is not having it. The great thing is that his appetite is as good as ever! Tonight he ate Chicken Kitchen (a local favorite here in Miami) totally healthy yellow rice and chicken. He DID NOT share with his sister. ......I want to say that the fact that he was his usual GREEDY self, was a good sign. another great sign is that as soon as he came home, he went straight to his bed and he even let Divine lay down next to him. This is something he NEVER allows......I think it was the meds----he was delirious for that moment. Divine was pretty shocked too but didnt care, she was just beside herself with joy that her brother was finally back from wherever she thought he went. so......this is how I feel: if the fact that amputating his leg and taking away his pain from the bone cancer may give me just another day, another week, another year with him, I dont regret my decision for second. he has to know how very much I love him....after all I am "CANNONSMOM" Thanks again to everyone on here. Love Tania Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Vinnie Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I just found this thread after I went looking for an update - Yay Cannon! So glad you are home and that the surgery went well. Vinnie had his right front amputated as well and he loved to lay on that side - I think it is just a subconscious defense mechanism - it always made me cringe as it would seem that it would hurt more to lay on that side. The first week or two is the hardest and then they realize that they can really fly with three legs and that if they milk it just right, there's lots more treats from those magic windows we drive through when we take them back in for check-ups and treatment. Hope you are doing ok as well. I loved the picture of Cannon with his sister, she has a lovely smile. Sending healing prayers and extra scritches for your pups and hugs for you.
