I'm taking Donovan for surgery shortly. Don't know how extensive it will be until they get in there. Hopefully nothing too difficult and of course I don't want any complications nailbite_smile. Cardiologist did not seem concerned at this point, and his BGs have been low blues recently.

Please pray for my wonderful Donny. I hope Butthead's spirit will be watching over him too...

Sending a special prayer to St Francis for intercession on Donovan's dental today. Cedric sends his hugs to you!
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

He's there, and now I wait. I arrived early so sat in the parking lot with him in my lap for about 15 min. Poor Donny was shaking :sad:. I printed out his recent BGs so they would know what to expect, and left his meter/strips/pokeys since it sounded like they want to test before/during/after surgery just in case. He may be done mid-afternoon. Until then, I am gripping my chaplet of St. Jude for dear life. Just had a bad feeling this morning, and still feel sick to my stomach. Trying to stay calm.

Thank you for your prayers...

Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

Sending prayers and good thoughts for you and Donny.

Guardian Angel Al is holding sweet Donny's paw and telling him kitty stories. He hold him until the dental procedure is complete and Donny is wide awake.

Update when you can.

Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

Dental vet just called after doing Donovan's oral exam/x-rays. Donny's problems are more severe than anticipated (guess my primary vet was right after all). She recommends extracting almost all of his teeth, and noted that his lower jaw has major issues and is probably severely infected, but may even be the evil C word that I will not let enter my mind now. They will do a biopsy on the area to be sure. Poor poor Donny... :sad:

But other than that, he's doing OK.
Keep praying please.

Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

PRAYERS & EASY DENTAL vibes to dear Donovan today--I'm sure he will be fine...Both my cats had multiple dentals, extractions, and both came out just fine!! Paws & fingers crossed for a quick & easy time-
I know you are worried especailly right now, but Donny is going to be fine--Vet should call you to tell you what's in there, so please update asap--Hugs & Love from us!!
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

((((MJ))))) Thoughts and prayers for an easy dental for Donovan. The waiting is the hardest part....know that we are all waiting with you.....
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

MJ - will they be placing an etube to help him eat after as he is diabetic? WIsh I could give you a real hug. We are thinking of you and your boy Donovan non stop today.
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

MJ, just finished a prayer for your Donny. I am going to think about him and envision the most beautiful golden healing light around him today.

Remember, we are a powerful group here at LL! Donny is going to be okay. Take a breath.

HUGS,
Sandy and Tessie Lou
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

Sending tons of good dental vines and healing white light for Donny. I know lots of kitties do well with multiple extractions, Tess is missing quite a few. Special prayers for the biopsy.

Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

Thanks everyone.
No news yet.
Not worried about Donovan adjusting with fewer teeth. He inhales his food rather than chewing anyway :roll:, and maybe this will make him think twice about stealing kibble. More concerned about complications and/or worst case scenario.

tick tock tick tock... nailbite_smile
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

((((MJ)))) Keeping Donny in our prayers and thinking really good thoughts. Sending you lots of hugs.

Ella & Rusty (who had 8 or 9 teeth extracted last summer)

Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

Mannie and I send thousands of healing vines, and positive thoughts, You are in our prayers today. I am sorry for the extent of the surgery, and I do so hope that it will make things better for him. Extra special prayers on the biopsy.

HUGS!!
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

(((MJ)))

Sending tons of vines and prayers and all the positive thoughts I can for Donny and you! It's so hard to wait.
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

thinking positive thoughts and the evil C word away.
Praying, praying and praying
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

Never thought I'd say this.... but I hope it is a bad infection. The right antibiotic treatment will take care of that for Donovan.
Many hugs for the cutie Foldie Coonie.

Praying for a good outcome and no c - no where, no how, no way. ((((((MJ)))))
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

MJ: sending white light and snowflakes and just hoping with CD that this is just bone infection and not anything else. We're sending you prayers and thoughts and everything we can muster.
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

((MJ))
Prayers for Donny. You know we are all there with you and Butthead
is shining down on your boy to keep him safe.
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

[heart attack]
Was just about to call them since I hadn't heard back all afternoon. I truly was thinking the worst.

Donovan is awake now. His lower jaw bone is badly infected, but she is hopeful that it isn't the evil C. Will get a biopsy anyway. I need to know. She removed all but 3 teeth, and he'll be on heavy duty antibiotics and pain meds (fentanyl patch and bupe). Leaving now to pick him up, so will be away for at least 2 hrs.

THANK YOU all

MJ&Donovan
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

I hope he has a comfortable night with the good drugs and all of the pampering you are going to give him. I never thought I would be happy to hear about a badly infected jaw, but I am glad that it looks optimistic for now, and I will send anti-C vines for the biopsy.
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

That is all optimistic news, and I hope the antibiotics help Donny feel better. LL prayers and Butthead's spirit all helped. I bet you can't wait to hold him. Hugs.
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

Glad he will be home with you soon. Ouch. I'm curious why she left any teeth at all. Won't that be awkward having just three teeth?

(((((MJ)))))) (((((Donovan)))))
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

I'm sending all sorts of good thoughts/vibes/snowflakes and anything else that occurs to me for Donny to have a good night and a good pathology report. Poor baby. No shrimps unless you put them in the blender!

I hope you have some baby food on hand for Donny and chocolate and/or ice cream for you. (Or a very large alcoholic beverage of your choice.)
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

Poor Donny...hopefully he'll be feeling much better very quickly. Healing prayers for the little guy....
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

Aww, MJ, I'm so sorry you and Donovan are going through this. He will feel much better afterwards, he was probably very sore before the dental. He will adjust quickly to the new gums and bite - I think you'll be surprised how quickly he'll bounce back. Take it easy tonight, and make his food slurpy going forward.
((( Hugs to you all. )))
P.S. Don't forget probiotics while he's on the ABs. Fortiflora, or even a human form sprinkled.
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

Bless your heart MJ. What a day for you. And poor Donny. Glad you took him to get the dental. Lots of hugs and healing vines for you guys.
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

Geez, poor Donny. I am glad he is ok and probably home with you by now. Healing vines and snowflakes!
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

Oh , poor Donovan. I hope the pain meds keep him comfortable while he heals.
Praying for a good pathology report on the jaw. Praying for peace of mind for you. It hurts so much, when our babies hurt.
Barb
 
Re: 6/2 Donovan dental surgery today

Also praying for a clean pathology report......any idea when you will know? I hope Donovan has good pain meds and will get some rest tonight. Keeping him in our prayers....sending more healing vines and BIG HUGS.
