BIONIC BETTY
Betty's recovery after her knee surgery was proceeding well last week, but out of nowhere, my poor girl took a dip in mood and stopped using her bionic leg. On further investigation I noticed the surgical incision was oozing... never a good sign! My husband and I decided not to take any chances and raced Betty back to the specialist vet, over an hour's drive away. He confirmed that poor Bets had developed a post surgery infection in her wound ... so, armed with strong antibiotics, we brought our girl home, feeling anxious. Having a member of your family go through major surgery is a rollercoaster of emotions and extremely stressful as you will understand.
Anyway, thankfully Betty is doing better today and tentatively using her leg again. It seems those antibiotics are starting to do their job ... which as you will understand, is a massive relief.
Hopefully we will soon be back on track with Betty's recovery. She is an absolute star patient, so compliant and gentle. Get well soon Bets, it will all be worth it in the end ... with that bionic leg healed and strong again, freedom beckons!
