Ember hurt her foot.

I just feel terrible this has happened to Ember. I can see how you would go into Mom mode she is your baby. Praying for you and Ember and hoping for a safe and speedy recovery for her. I'll be looking for your updates.
 
Oooooh, what rotten luck! Poor Ember and poor you. I know how hard it is when they are hurting and you just want to take that away from them.

You and Ember are in my thoughts and hopefully the orthopod can help her and she'll be on the road to recovery.

Well my othro friend was not working today but I talked with his wife also a vet and she is going to have him call me. I had another vet look at her and she agrees with me that the tendon is displacing. So now my friend and I need to consult and coodinate surgery which I would like to happen this week. I need to have him confirm for me as though I am 99.9% sure that what is going on, I am doubting myself only because she is my baby and I'm in denial.

I don't have all the specifics as I have never dealt with this type of injury but surgical prognosis is good for normal use of the leg. Agility future is unsure. Forced rest for 6 weeks with at least 3 weeks in a support brace and then rehab.

Ember ate this morning which I am happy about. She hasn't had a bowel movement and will not go into the back yard anymore because she had a catch this morning and she is convinced the yard is biting her. :(

I let you all know when the surgery will take place.:(
 
I was so sorry to read Ember's update! What a terrible prognosis, plus surgery and recovery time. At least you have the knowledge to take care of her and know when she's not right. Ember is very lucky to have you and I know that under your expert care and love, she'll heal well and quickly. We'll be thinking of you and Ember and praying that all goes well.
 
Awww.....Dr. Shelli.

I am so sorry to hear about poor Ember's diagnosis.

Please continue to keep us updated. As I am checking in as often as I can to get some updates. Poor baby :sadsmile:
 
Awww, poor Ember. Hopefully with her athletic background this will give her an advantage in the recovery process. I am just so sorry you both are going through this. You are always here for all of us Dr. Shelly and I'm am sure I speak for everyone here in saying Thank You. Now we would like to be there for you and Ember. I'll be checking back to see how she makes out when she sees the Ortho. keeping you both in my prayers.
 
Oh I'm so sorry to hear about Ember's foot, I hope the surgery goes well and she heals quick. My thoughts are with you.
