Today Sidney is having his FHO surgery to relieve the pain from his luxated hip joint caused by hip dysplasia. It was a tearful goodbye this morning, but I know he is in excellent hands. They will call me later this afternoon, and I should be able to bring him home tomorrow.

Thank you all for your messages of encouragement, well wishes and prayers. It really means a lot to me :)

***UPDATE***

Just got a call from the vet. Sidney is already done and is starting to wake up. He said the procedure went well. He also said the hip was in really bad shape and Sidney will be able to move much more comfortably once he heals.


***UPDATE 2***

My husband talked to the overnight vet tech. She kept calling Sidney "too cute" and said he may have glitter on his nose because she'd be giving him extra love during her break. Sidney continues to work his magic, even when incapacitated :)

Best of luck Sidney, I know you'll do great! Geri, we can't forget you either - he'll be just fine. I know it's nerve wracking knowing he's having surgery but he'll be ok. As you said he's in good hands and that's all you can ask for. You're doing the right thing to help him in the long run. Try to stay busy hun and keep us informed. We're all here for you!
