Thanks again all.. really means alot !

Waiting to hear from the neorologist for the morning report, she should be ready to come home in a couple of days. Her regular vet called me last night and said that the guy who operated on her is one of the best in the country, and that his e-mail report to her was that everything went excellently.

We caught it fast, got her right in so there was no damage to the spinal cord. They put a mylar plate in replace the one that gave away.

Surprised to to find out they go in from the throat/chest area and not the top of the shoulders

Whatever works I say

They do the same for humans, the nerve endings run outward from the spine at the back area. Entry from the front of the neck, chest or abdominals significantly reduces risk of nerve damage or paralysis.

I went to spend some time with her today. Her eyes and her demeanor are the old Katey, and they tell me that because of the way she was holding herself that they gave her a high probability for recovery.

BIG incision on her chest that right now is stapled shut. She should be coming home tomorrow or Thursday

Gonna have to hit my retirement account to pay for this one but I'd do it again in a second ... I can always beg besides the offramps, I hear they make up to $100 a day tax free

Glad to hear the good news.

I too would spend way more than my brain tells me I should to save my little buddies.
