💙 Tooshie Surgery Update 💙
Tooshie’s surgery went well today.
During the procedure, Dr Taka, Tooshie’s surgeon, was able to examine his intestines and found that his colon (large intestine) was very enlarged compared to his small intestines.
We knew this would be the case, but I didn’t expect it to be quite so big. This distension developed because he was unable to p**p for those first five weeks of his life, that has caused irreversible damage and it’s something that will continue to be an issue that will need monitoring for life.
Dr Taka carefully straightened and tacked Tooshie’s colon to the abdominal wall to help support it and prevent future twisting or displacement.
Our brave boy handled the surgery like an absolute champ and is now back home recovering comfortably with his friends by his side 💙🐾
He’s sporting a very big suture line, it’s almost half the length of his little body, but he’s taking it all in his stride. His bum already looks much better (definitely less pronounced than before), and I’m now waiting on that all-important post-surgery p**p with bated breath! 💩😂
Thank you all so much for your kind words, healing vibes, and continued support… it truly means the world to Tooshie and I ✨
