Baloo’s Big Day
Just a couple hours to go!
UC Davis has been wonderful with regular updates, and after a brief postponement due to an emergency surgery yesterday, Baloo is set for his surgery in a couple hours. Apparently Baloo’s major gripe was the fasting, so he’s not going to be happy about that happening two days in a row, but a bit more of a svelte frame wouldn’t be the worst thing for three legs.
His physical therapy, which will include massage and acupuncture, will start immediately, so I’m hopeful the updates from UC Davis will include great post-surgery progress, and a call very soon that our boy can come home.
The best update yesterday was a photo from my friend at UCD last night, and the good doc was sitting with Baloo, giving him love, which more than made my day! Hopefully he won’t mind that I’ve shared this, but it was such a wonderful thing for us all to see!
(I asked him if Baloo was scamming on his lab coat pockets for treats…he said Baloo definitely found a few. It it’s a classic Baloo move when he sees a vet!)
If you have a moment, think a good thought for Baloo today!
