Life and Veterinary Adventures

I don't really have a "life" right now.  I spend what seems like 80% of my day with these people: Doing nerdy things like this and this: and this: I really like these people. Sure I get sick of them sometimes, it's easy to do when you're around mostly females most of the time. But if I had to be stuck with people, these guys would be a pretty good bunch. I've met some awesome people at this school. We've really become a family. I hope our bond only continues to grow from the time we have left at Fox and after graduation.

Honey had her spay surgery a few weeks ago. I was so anxious all day and checked on her every free second I had, along with her new mommy, Tammy. We were there when she got her IM shot and started to feel woozy as she sat in Chris's lap. Her actual surgery was done while I was in class, but I heard all about it. It went well, aside from the fact that they lost her(!) for a while, but she pulled through. I checked on her when she was still asleep afterwards in a cage. I was told she was growling in her sleep, so I didn't get too close in case she woke up and bit me because of the anesthetic effects. A few days later, she had somehow ripped her stitches out. It must have been from her jumping around too much in her cage because she had an E-collar on. So, she had to go back into surgery. This happened another time, and they finally decided to use different sutures. She was also placed in a smaller cage, so she couldn't move around as much. Poor thing. Another morning...
