: Dear iggy buddies:
: We just got home about 30 minutes ago and she
is resting in her cage. I can honestly say she
looks great. They took such good care of her.
She has 13 (as best I can count without turning
her over) staples in her tummy. Has to be on
antibiotics for 21 days and can't get incision wet
but isn't limited about climbing. She was so
excited to see me! How could I tell, you ask?
Well, she looked over at me when they brought her
in--LOL! Oh, the crumbs we settle for!
: They brought in a zip-lock bag and I thought
they were cherry tomatoes they were sending home
for her to snack on--wrong! They were her eggs
which really grossed me out. I could hardly
believe how many and how big. He showed me the
little bits of tissue that was mixed in among the
eggs--the ovaries. One side was nice and pink,
the other tissue was dark red. He explained that
this ovary was in trouble (which no one knew about
before he operated). Dr. Stahl said that this
ovary would have burst or broken down very shortly
and may have killed her. Said it was a blessing
that we operated when we did. (I submitted his
name to be included in the Herp Vet
Connection--see VA). I sure dodged that bullet.
Now that it is all over, I am so glad I made the
decision to have her spayed. It was well worth it
for her health and my nerves!
: It is great to have her home. Thank you one
and all for all the cards, e-mail, postings, good
wishes, prayers, and kindnesses. You are a very
special group of people and I feel honored to be
among you.
: Hugs and little licks,
: Judy and Meggy
