Bailey's Lovely Lady Lumps - Check it Out!!!


Two Monday nights ago, I took my Bailey Bear to Dr. Waylon's to prep for surgery that would take place early Tuesday morning.
Bailey had three too-mahs and one "dingleberry" that needed to be removed.
I won't lie. I was very nervous about her being cut on in so many places. One of the tumors was especially hard and had grown very quickly. Dr. W said we needed to have it tested to see if it was cancer.
She got through the surgery just fine and I was able to take her home Tuesday afternoon with meds and bandages.
J was also a teensy bit worried about her so he wanted her to come to his house for the evening. J was SO sweet to her. She was still VERY DRUGGED and he sat on the floor in his nice pants beside her and petted her and talked to her. She kept nodding off, but tried to NOT put her chin down, since that's where many stitches were.
J even played her some songs on his guitar and sang to her! haha.
She freaked out a little, since I'm sure she had no idea what was going on!
Anyhow, she has recovered nicely and just in the last few days started trying to remove all the stitches from her chest and leg. Thankfully I've been home everyday so I've been able to be her nurse. (I probably spoiled her too much as she now thinks MY bed is HER bed!)
I took her to Dr. Waylon's this morning and they pinned her down and took the remaining stitches out.
And the BEST news is that the TEST RESULTS ARE ALL CLEAR!!!
No CANCER or anything else that is bad news!!!

She just had a few "lovely Bailey lumps" and they needed removal.
I confess I felt GREAT RELIEF when I heard she was going to be fine!
She's my furbaby!
I immediately text J so he knew the good news as well. He was pleased. =)
So we have a happy ending to Bailey's lumpy adventure!!
And FINALLY I can give her a bath and then vacuum out my car, since she's been shedding like crazy this week!
