Chippy's got a lump (benign cystic teratoma.....extra ingrown mammary gland)

[pumpkinandwhiskersmom]

We'll keep those healing prayers coming....

 

[AngelnSnuffy]

Come on Chippy!ray: Keep doing well, little bugger!

 

[JimD]

I just wanted to update before I turn in for the night.

There's a lot to be said about the power of good thoughts and prayers....

.... and even more to be said about how much it is appreciated by those on the receiving end. :group:...Thank you!!!




Chippy has passed the final exam!!
:woohoo

DrC is very pleased with her condition!:nod

The stitches have all dissolved.
The surgery site has healed nicely.
The little fuzzy fur has started to grow back.
There's no sign of anything reforming.

She even looks better.
Her coat is so smooth and soft...softer than I can remember it ever being.
Her hocks are completely healed, too.

I'm so proud of my little girl!


All is good..:biggrin2:

Tiny?!?:?
Did Buck send you to look after Chippy?

Buck smiled and said, “Yes – there are lots of types of messengers. For instance, there are some bunnies that are sad and long to come to the bridge but we know they’re going to get well and it is too soon. So we send someone over to tell them that they’ve got to fight. We tell them to hold on and that they’ll cross the bridge later on … when the time is right.”

Do they sometimes appear to the buuny slaves, too?

Because,I think I almost tripped over him last night.

Maybe he was telling me that Chippy would be ok?

 

[AngelnSnuffy]

Jim that is wonderful news about Chippy, I'm so relieved. Good going Chippy! Give her a kiss from me.

 

[TinysMom]

Tell you what - I'll write it into one of the stories....how Tiny gets so involved talking to a bunny that he gets stepped on...

 

[pumpkinandwhiskersmom]

So glad that Chippy is doing well...get a good night's sleep, Jim! You deserve it.

 

[Bo B Bunny]

This is just wonderful news!

Did they do a biopsy?

 

[LuvaBun]

I am soooo pleased to hear this news, Jim. I am so relieved that Chippy has got the ' all clear'. Now, just sit back and chill!!!

Just a "good news" update :biggrin2:

Chippy is doing really well!!

It's so good to see her back to her ol' self again.

She greeted me this morning with her "running-around-with-the-blankie-on-my-head" dance.
I laughed until I cried....felt good.

 

[naturestee]

Awesome news!

Thank goodness for the continued good news!

I just have to make a funny. When I first got this for my first bun? Yep, had a song:biggrin2:.

Flipp and Toss Carrot! Make up your own tones, hee.

Jim, I'm so glad that things are looking up for Chippy. I'm curious, though: How far is this great vet from you? (You'd mentioned that the drive/cost was worth the trip.)

Two of the vet techs said the same thing today ...."They just don't understand that these are our babies!!"

It's funny how spouses can be sometimes....My husband grumbles about the vet bills, which have become overwhelming. We've spent thousands of dollars since I've been out of work (since this past Jan.). And we see no signs of a break, especially now that our cat's been having issues, too.

A few days ago, to my surprise, my hubby commented about the pets getting whatever testing is necessary. I wasn't prepared for it and had to do a double-take. I didn't say anything, though I smiled (on the inside).

:yeahthat: Does your camera have a video function?

 

[JimD]

It's back..... :sigh:

I'll be calling DrC tomorrow to make an appointment.

I realized there was something amiss when Tootsie crawled into my lap and did kind of a DBF, and then nudged me for pets....she's never done this before.
She kept looking a Chippy.
I think she's trying to comfort me, and let me know she's there for me.
She's so attentive of the other buns....so matronly.
