Tumor be gone!


Okay so Friday was the big day of the tumor removal. Thurs night we had to put up the food and water before bedtime. On Friday when we got up as usual Jasper is pacing from the bedroom to the mud room for his first of 34 treats he gets a day. Well,, not today son, going to the vet. So I call him in the mudroom and shut the door, because (you really should see a video of him when he thinks he is going for a walk), I get down the leash as he goes berzerk! He yanks my arms and shoulders and gets tied up around the bushes etc etc then he gets in the truck and has to hang his head out the window while I freeze to death and whine the entire 5 miles to the vet. Once we get there he knows where we are again and decides, not today mom, take me somewhere else. So Dr. joe goes over all the info with me and says he will have anesthesia, they will shave his face and one of his legs for the Iv and I can pick him up at 400. I tell him I love him, which he doesnt care at this point. I began to sob uncontrollably that I had to leave him all alone(kidding) I went to work, he called at 1124 and said J did great pick him up at 400. I texted my hubby and went on with the day. Hubby calls me at 300 and says he want to go with me to get him, I thought that was sweet because hubby calls Jasper "nutjob" instead of J. So we get there and after 10 mins of clemson football talk with DR. Joe, I can get my dog. He has 10 stitches that will need to come out in 10 days, so I thought well Ill take them out. yeahs, I woke up this morning and thought NOPE! So he is fine, He is on a pain medicine that makes him have the absolute worst gas I ever have smelt in my life! He and I slept together last night and I woke up choking from it. Seriously! Well now he is asleep and still doing it, but it doesnt bother him, only me because he has to be wherevever i am. I love this dog! Oh and TD too. Final bill lets just say for today it was less than we thought!
