Never Is the Next New Thing

Wish Him Luck!

Henry the dog is having an operation on his deformed paw today. The doctors are hoping to remove the excess skin that makes his foot look webbed, create proper toes and tighten up his tendons to compensate for missing ligaments. Here’s how his deformed foot looks now.


Here’s the grumpy face Henry made while I was trying to photograph his foot.

I’m pretty nervous about this operation so send good thoughts our way!

While we’re talking about feet, here’s a picture of mine.

Crazy new shoes

UPDATED TO ADD: I just came back from dropping Henry at the hospital. Some bitchface was there dropping off her cat and complaining about how she’d already been waiting 30 minutes. I empathized with her till someone came out for Henry and she screamed to the dude, “But I was here before HER!” Fuck you, lady! I realize every minute of your life is so much more important than mine because, as you said many times, you work in an ICU. But since you do work in a hospital as Head Nurse in Charge of Bad Attitude and Long Waits or whatever, you should not be surprised by what happens at one. I guess some people can dish out but they can’t take it.

UPDATED AGAIN TO ADD: Henry came through the operation fine, except for a little post-anesthesia wooziness. The vet was very pleased with the new and improved toes she created for him. He’s staying at the animal hospital overnight so they can monitor his pain level and change the bandages, and I’ll pick him up Thursday.
