Lily Vet Update

I took Lily back to the vet today. Lily had surgery done on Nov. 7th. She had mammary tumors removed and a growth over her eye.

(not feeling like her Snar-key self!)


She currently has stitches on four parts of her body, three areas on her belly and 2 stitiches on her eye lid.

Last night Lily managed to take out the stitches over her eye- it didn't bleed but I wanted to get it checked out. The vet said it looked alright and gave me ointment to put on it twice a day. Happily, it did not need to be restitched.



These pictures are definitely not very glamorous pictures of me - believe me, when you go to bed at 4 a.m. (my usual time) and have to be at the vet at 8 a.m. (unhappy hour) you are so not going to look alive for the appointment!


Anyway, I was trying to get back to sleep after we got back home when Lily came and lay down right next to me with her head resting on my arm. It was so cute that I reached for my camera-phone that was sitting on my desk and got these shots.


(Ignore the human - cute dog!!!)


Side Note: I slept for an hour and a half, then ended up getting another rude awakening - by my neighbor's evil lawn-mower.
