Chanel's Surgery D-1


The picture is from last year.. the day our Chanel got her cast finally off on her left hind leg, on March 9th, 2011.  The leg looked so DEAD we thought she'll never really be able to use it at all, despite what the vet said, that she will recover her leg!  It was hard to believe.. it was so thin, frail, skin was all bumpy and dead, no hair, she couldn't put her leg down..


But voilà! Our Chanel lets nothing down.. she bounced up, aced her physical therapy and as good as new!


Her surgery to repair patella luxation on the very same leg is already just a day away.. in less than 23 hours she can no longer eat, will be dropped off at the hospital and won't be picked up until the day after :(  But this surgery isn't going to be as rough as her fractured leg last year..  and her recovery time will be quicker.


Thank you to all, who's donated and gave support for her so far!!  She will still have another surgery after this one, as she needs to have surgery done for both hind legs for luxated patellas.  This year will not be easy again, but once they're relocated to proper place, she will no longer feel pain/discomfort and enjoy the life she so deserves!
