Glad to hear that she is doing better!! And didn't need the dreaded collar. What a sweetheart!! I know Nash would be digging for China if he had stitches!! She really is so very laid back.

Thanks again, everyone! Abbey is still doing really well. Her eye is amazing - there's nothing there to tell that anything has been done to it. The incision from the cyst is looking good - it's just a little pink around the stitches now.

Re-check is on Wednesday this week and I'll return the e-collar to the vet. Vet was right - Abbey didn't need it. Thank goodness. It's always the dreaded e-collar that causes so much trouble after surgery!

Abbey came through with flying colours - thanks for thinking about us!

The growth on her eyelid was removed easily. Vet put a figure-8 stitch in. Her eye isn't even puffy. In fact, it looks as if nothing happened.

The cyst on her shoulder was a different story. It was one of those weird cysts that fills with watery fluid, then drains when it becomes huge. Vet didn't want to remove it because she didn't think it was hurting Abbey. She considered it costmetic. But, this last time, the cyst grew to the size of a baseball and it wasn't draining. So vet agreed that since she had to put Abbey under anesthetic for the eyelid growth, she'd remove the cyst at the same time. So now Abbey has an ugly line of black stitches on her shoulder.

She had a little trouble under anesthetic. Vet said her blood pressure kept fluctuating so she changed the flow constantly. She had removed the eyelid thingie with no problem and had started working on the...

Heh all, just wanted to let you know that Jacque's Abbey had surgery today to definitely remove a growth on her eyelid, and hopefully, if that went well, to remove a fluid filled cyst that keeps draining and then filling up.

Hopefully Jac will come on and give us an update. Hugs little Abbey. She is such a sweetheard!
