nathan's dad was super late picking us up from the house to drive two hours to the vet's clinic in groves. than in itself was upsetting. what made the situation even more frustrating was the fact that koda's pain medicine was definitely wearing off and he kept trying to get comfortable in the car so he would scream and cry every time he moved. :( but eventually he got situated and fell asleep until we arrived at the vet. he was a little shaky at first while we asked questions but quickly calmed down. i think he was used to seeing vets and knew everyone was trying to make him better. he was immediately put on pre-op medicine to manage his pain until it was time for surgery.
the vet's office called a few minutes ago and let us know that koda came through with one plate and seven screws put into his radius and ulna. we are all very hopeful for a full recovery! we just have to make sure that he doesn't try to run once he can actually place some weight on his leg. :) we pick him up thursday from the vet and in the mean time we will get plenty of rest and spoil our other baby a little bit because we've been force to neglect him some to help koda, which i'm sure he understands... but still.
and i just want to say thank you to all of our family and friends for being so helpful in this process/situation. even a huge thank you is deserved to those who stopped to help our babies find their way home and get help! and thank you all of the many prayers; there is no doubt we have needed them and appreciate them greatly!
