NW Okie's Corner

It's been one week since this NW Okie had a large mass removed from her left ovary and a complete hysterectomy. It all done via laparoscopic robotic surgery, and removing it via the vagina. Laparoscopic cuts the recovery time in half (about 1-3 weeks). Thank goodness for Obamacare, Medicare and AARP. Otherwise I would not have been able to afford it and get it removed.

Duchess of Weaselskin

It was great to see my human pull in the driveway at noon on Sunday after being gone a whole week. Me and Sawdust Sadie were running wide circles around our human's return. I know she missed us as much as we missed her. Maybe even more so.
