queenwinniesmom Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Big hugs to Smiley! They are so amazingly resilient---he will be your inspiration throughout this journey. The Greyhound community in general, and OSU and GT in particular, are so supportive. How great that you got to hang out with fellow GT'ers who knew exactly what you were going through. Hoping for a smooth homecoming and recovery for Smiley. Lydia is sending gentle telepathic nose kisses!

Guest Smiley Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Saturday Morning Update: We just heard from our vet student at OSU and Smiley did really well last night. They were able to take him off IV pain meds and are giving him oral pain meds only now. He is able to sit up on his own and even stood on his own! The surgeon looked at him this morning and said he looks really good and bleeding has not been a problem. He's preferring to be "spoon fed" still, but I'm happy he's eating. The only issue they had was that he seems to be yelping out for no apparent reason and they feel it's just him getting used to his new body and surroundings and not a pain response. I did tell them that being vocal is in keeping with his personality too. So they are very pleased with his progress and so are we! I cannot wait to see my boy tomorrow! I'm scared to death b/c I want to make sure we do everything right to help him, but I can't wait to baby him like he's never been babied before .
