Holly’s been home 3 days now, and is still doing well. I am thankful for the forums here – it helped explain some of her skittishness, which I am now thinking could be phantom pain. She’s better today than yesterday – she seemed “spooked” several times yesterday. She would jump up and run to another room. I’ve noticed the incision site quivering at times, too. Our vet told us to ice the site for 10 minutes 3 times a day, and that seems to help her. She is also enjoying going outside – it’s 19 degrees in Chicago today and I think the cold air must feel good to her – she hasn’t wanted to go outside so often for a long time. Her spirits remain good, and she is really enjoying all the family time with everyone home from school and work. Thanks for all who have wished her well. We’re hoping she continues to steadily improve. And I’ll continue to peruse the forums here – it really helps to read what others have experienced!
I think I was able to add 2 more pics of her post-op.
