DAYSIE UPDATE FEBRUARY 7, 2011

Hi everyone, we just got home from the vet with Daysie, and there is good new's and bad new's. The good new's is that all of her open sore's are closed and healed and her skin is looking much better. The doctor did skin scraping's again today, and there is still yeast, bacteria, and secondary infection on her legs and feet, so she will be on anti-biotic's for at least another month. The doctor also aspirated 2 cyst's that she was worried about, and they are NOT cancerous! But they will need to be removed. The bad new's is that Daysie will need to have surgery to remove the "pocket of infection" that is on her back. It is not healing and that is the only way to get rid of it. So the estimate that we got for the surgery to remove both cysts, remove the pocket of infection on her back, and to remove her painful broken teeth and do a much needed cleaning is $700 dollars. And then she should be a brand new doggie, and she should be ready to go up for adoption. (As long as everything goes as planned.) The vet gave us a really good deal today, she only charged us for the visit and the medications, and not for the skin scrapings and aspirating the cysts. And I know that she is giving us a really good deal on her surgery too. But it is still alot of money!- We will be doing another raffle, and I will be selling a few things to raise this money for Daysie. She is a senior, but she is a wonderful dog and she is full of life, and she deserves to live out the rest of her years as someone's best friend.- So if anyone has a prize that they would be willing to donate to us to raffle off, please let us know. We have already gotten one donated prize that is really cool. We will be posting the detail's of the next raffle soon. THANKS FOR ALL THE SUPPORT!
