The second surgery was conducted with a general sedative rather than a local, so Tuki had to go through the full inpatient, surgery, prep ordeal. She did well and the only time her bravery faltered was when she first laid eyes on me once she had woke from the surgery. I knew she was terrified under all her bravery when we arrived at the hospital and she said "I am scared, I will stay in the van" The Doc said he is cautiously optimistic that it won't grow back, BUT if it does than he will have to remove the first knuckle of the toe, so I sure hope it doesn't come to that. Her re-check is Monday, June 25th.
the beginning of the surgery with both Bear Bears
one of the nurses helping getting the Bear Bears ready for Surgery too
Doc Williams checking in
marking and signing the toe
see the elongated growth on the toe
the anesthesiologists wheeling her away
post surgery bandage
I sang her "me cielo" song that I sang to her when she'd get upset when she was a baby. It still works, and she calmed down immediately
taking her IV out
resting at home
