Chatting with Momma at the Vet – The Night Tito’s Leg Was Broken

The night that Jellybean’s leg was broken was chaotic to say the least. I ushered the kids up to bed frantically as Momma took Tito to the Emergency vet in downtown Hamilton. We were definitely worried about poor Tito and about the costs that were now inevitable to fix him up….

Tito is very still
Sad little boy
Got one kiss in car
Still favoring paw?
Cries occasionally
—-
I haven’t pit him down
1.97
Kilos
Take photo and post to blog – tag Tito – category journals
Drooling like a mad fool… Apparently stress
No doubt
Quiet upstairs
They’re scared

Tito at the Dr.

And they should be… I could puke right now
He looks so old in that shot
I know
His muzzle is drenched
Gonna be nasty when they pop his leg into place
Hopefully only dislocated
Cast won’t be too fun
That would be nice …
Already 140 to look at hom
This typing with one hand is hard
:-S
dr lepage
Will see is in a minute
I keep humming to hom
Everyone calm here now
Took forever to calm Roobert
Ruby will never be the same
He was quite freaked – feeling better now
Other dog here might have eating some finishing nails
Does look like a broken leg…. Maybe dislocated
Xray maybe 260
gonna do them anyway
Good boy for vet
I’m getting kisses.
Was worried about August 25yh – now worried about July 25th
25th is Wednesday… Will phone bank and have them not bounce things and I will stay up till midnight and transfer money
Regularly xrays are about 60 each think… And he needs two
But here all bets are off cause they gitcha
Hopefully they do it – was hoping to do that in August – they won’t do it twice
The bank won’t hold off till first week in Sept will they?
Nope!
That’s asking way to much
We need an overdraft
Yes we do
You should try
Wont get it
Border line bankrupt
True. That
Tito us in xray right now
K
I’m all alone… By myself… Waiting
Person just had to put down her cat
So sad here
That’s awful
No pain meds in building for wee Tito
They are too strong
The stuff at home is for inflammation not pain
Do we know if he’s ok yet?
No not yet
Good job we have conservation and zoo memberships
Dr is very sweet… She is young and cute
Yes I know
And free waterfalls
Thank god we didn’t get a Hamilton one today
Hopefully I get the flight and mileage soon
Not counting in that a that’s gravy if so
I’ll go on Monday after swimming and get the other up there so Kim can do it when she is in… Even some us better than none
That’s just bitter for my biscuits
Butter not bitter
Although I am bitter tight now
Nail dog getting xrats too
I’m tired… Adrenaline is shot
I’m going to sleep downstairs with Tito so the others do not pull on him
I’ll set up cage with bed
Ok
I’m starting to get very cold
I haven’t eaten today…. Probably why
cat people just left…. So sad
That is sad – poor folks
Not too happy I’m sure
Other lady here’s dog got hit by a car yesterday… Internal bleeding, hip dracture
Spotty just sounded the alarm from upstairs
Like he was shot
Bleeding in lungs and around liver
He’s going home today… Doing better will go for hip surgery on Monday in mississauga
Hurt himself jumping from bed into pen upstairs
Hanging with me now
He was so shaken I thought he actually got hurt too
Seems ok
Why did he jump into the pen? He is such an idiot
Good question
I posted part one of Tito’s trial on the blog – you do the next part – since you’re waiting anyway
Tito has had some pain med, resting in the back
Cool
Such a wee boy
I think they drew it up a bit strong… Had a bit of a puke
They got me a mug of water… Sensing I needed something
That’s cool
Two bones broken above wrist
Cast?
What are we at now? 700$

x-ray

I feel sick
He needs an Ortho surgeon and a plate most likely…. In Mississauga or Guelph
Probably 2000 to 3000….
OMG
Yep… Gonna get reassessed at our vet on mo day
Just to see
Cast tonight?
How to help him?
Time sensitive I’m sure
Good splint… No mention of a true cast
Before it sets wrong
Exactly
Will vet make app’t for us on Monday?
for the surgeon, they’ll refer us from here or caledonia
Hoping to talk to mom tomorrow. hope she has a card with space for it

On the Couch

The gaggle says this is bill jive
It went through 😀
Thank the gods
I knew it would
Yup
They was the emergency fund
I could cry right now…..
Now toast
:'(
Why Tuesday? The 25th is Wednesday.. Not that that helps
I meant we’d
Whenever the 25th is
I put my 100 cheque away from June and we should get Julys on Monday I think…. That will at least buy pasta… 🙁
On way soon
What’s been happening since you paid?
Thought you’d be home by now
Leaving now
Putting on bandage

Bandaged

The poor wee bugger
Seriously!!
