Here's a little feel-good for your Monday!
Meet Callie. This boopable bundle of Christmas joy came to our Hillside location just after Thanksgiving, not feeling her best. As a very food-motivated pitty, not wanting to eat was a sure sign that something was very wrong. Her lack of appetite, combined with lethargy, GI problems, and a recent heat, made our doctors suspicious of a sneaky condition called Pyometra. After some labwork and a targeted abdominal ultrasound, Callie's diagnosis was confirmed.

"Pyometra" is a uterine infection that can cause pain and lethargy, a lack of appetite, fever, vomiting, diarrhea, panting, a swollen abdomen, and sometimes problems with urination.

Pyometra is not a condition that can be fixed with a few meds and time. It is an emergency surgery requiring a complete spay (ovarian hysterectomy). Callie was transferred to Urgent Care for surgery and would get to return home that same evening. She was sent with strict instructions for care, and last week, we got to see Callie again for her suture removal. She is healed, happy, and enjoying her food again.

Shout out to the Smith family for trusting our veterinarians with their sweet girl. And yes...we cuddled her every chance we got.

Merry Christmas, Callie!

An Urgent Christmas Miracle, Marcey's Story.

From Swann Animal Clinic Urgent Care Veterinarian Dr. Enevoldsen:

I've been in veterinary medicine in some capacity for 19 years. Through that time, I have seen some pretty amazing cases. Recently, however, I had the privilege of being a part of Marcey Mitchener's story, and it has changed me for the better.

Marcey presented to our Urgent Care service early on a Friday morning. She had been attacked by a larger dog. When she came in, it was clear that she was in bad shape. She was in shock, bleeding, and struggling to breathe.

After discussing the needed treatments with her owner, we moved forward with stabilization and surgery for Marcey. Best case scenario, we would just be clipping and cleaning the bite wounds. Worst case scenario, the bites penetrated into the thoracic cavity. Once we were in surgery, the worst-case scenario came crashing down on us.

Just under the skin, her chest had been ripped open. I was left looking at her lungs, heart, and shredded muscle where I should be seeing healthy subcutaneous tissues. I called her mom to let her know the situation. I gave Marcey a 10% chance of survival. Her mom placed her trust in me and Jesus and told me to keep going. I will not lie - surgery was scary. I stopped my team before I kept going, and we prayed. We prayed for Marcey, for her family, for peace in the operating room, and for wisdom for me.

Medicine is a team sport. I had Dr. Ellersick scrub in and her team joined mine for the next three hours. A chest tube, thoracic lavaging and culturing, rib repairs, and countless stitches later, we were in recovery with Marcey. She was breathing on her own and her chest tube was working well!

I was thankful to get to call and let her mom know we made it through surgery, but we still had a LONG way to go. Marcey spent a total of five days in the hospital in intensive care. When I got to tell her mom I was ready to send her home, I cried.

Cases like this take a piece of you. This was my Christmas miracle this year. I was blessed with the trust of the family, the support of my nursing staff, the support of my fellow doctors, the support of my administration, and the peace of my Savior. We can't save all the cases like this, but when we can, it is truly life-changing. I will carry this case with me the rest of my career. Thank you Mitchener family for allowing me to be a part of Marcey's story.
