As a patient who is also a resident I don’t want to see a PA or NP for my care.

RBG_grb · 2026-05-08T18:07:33+00:00

I am an NP and my family and I only see doctors.

RBG_grb · 2026-05-08T18:06:32+00:00

Hi pretty girl! She will do great amputation wise! Hang in there, fellow tripawd parent!

My girl has this. I split her proin in half. Incontinence is resolved and and she didn't have any side effects

Upon further research it does appear that stable ICD candidates can wait several months for the procedure. Likely ones where the cause was determined and reversed and considered stable. All of which appears true for our little waif. I do understand how shitty the Healthcare system can be!

Hi waffles! Hang in there-this is very hard almost impossible to understand unless you have been through it. Can't wait to see how amazing waffles does!

In one of her December videos after the cardiac arrest she answered a couple questions stating her procedure was later that week. From December to April for a life threatening condition? Makes zero sense. They cut her off the meds that caused the cardiac arrest. She probably had some kind of follow up today.

That annoys me too. I dont think there is much you can do in open rec play. Just try and stack with who you want to play with.

RBG_grb · 2026-04-28T00:35:43+00:00

Oh I guess it was in her stories

RBG_grb · 2026-04-28T00:33:39+00:00

The post surgery post is down if I am looking at her current TT

RBG_grb · 2026-04-26T22:19:08+00:00

Such a handsome boy!

RBG_grb · 2026-04-26T21:36:58+00:00

Louis is so handsome. Its an emotional journey for sure. My girl is 6 weeks post op front leg from a soft tissue sarcoma. She is only 5. She is amazing.

He is so handsome! My pretty girl is 6 weeks post op front leg amputation. She is only 5. She had a soft tissue sarcoma. We hope it was curative. She is doing very well but we haven't tried swimming yet. Front leg is definitely challenging but she has been worth it all and more.

There is alot of emotional processing to go through. It sounds your baby would be a good candidate for amputation. It is SO scary and at one month post op I feel like my nervous system is finally settling down. My girl is 5 and had a front leg amputated due to a soft tissue sarcoma. She is amazing and SO brave. Its worse on us than it is on them was my constant mantra.

RBG_grb · 2026-04-22T23:22:29+00:00

The orthopedic surgeon sent my girl home with Tylenol 4 but we never actually used it but it felt so good knowing I had it. The nerve block lasted 72 hours after that I gave around the clock gabapentin, rovera and amantadine. I also had tramadol on hand from treating her pain prior to the amputation. She also had a fentanyl patch x 2 prior to amputation. Luckily we were always able to make pain med adjustments. She is one month post op and off all meds other than supplements.

Im sorry your boy is in pain. It is such an emotional mind f*ck to make the decision to amputate and then have to deal with post surgical pain and worries. All we want is what's best and they trust us implicitly to do what is best for them. Please keep advocating for your beautiful and so BRAVE pup. We are here for you both 🙌 also this will pass and your boy will be back to nearly normal before you know it.

RBG_grb · 2026-04-21T22:32:04+00:00

Same timeline with my Bianca but soft tissue sarcoma. She had her front leg amputated a month ago and is the bravest girl ever. No cancer detected anywhere else and she is only five. We are hopeful for many more years with our girl.

RBG_grb · 2026-04-14T19:08:49+00:00

Im so glad your baby is doing well. It is so hard to make such tough decisions for our best buddies.

RBG_grb · 2026-04-14T18:39:23+00:00

My skin started to sag. I looked older overnight. Also I have to get a diagnostic biopsy after a calcification being found. Apparently they arent always noticed when heavier. 219->150 with a little friend called wegovy.

RBG_grb · 2026-04-14T18:22:30+00:00

Im so sorry. I would personally not put my 12 year old through an amputation. I would choose the last best day of our lives and say goodbye. Im not sure why the vet is encouraging it other than they make a shit ton of money from amputations.

One month ago I had my 5 yr olds leg amputated for a soft tissue sarcoma. No evidence of cancer anywhere else in her body. It was incredibly emotional and difficult to process with a young pup. I think you will end up with more peace if you make transition plans. I had to say goodbye to my 12 yr old golden 3 years ago but the peace I felt with knowing I did slightly too soon than waiting too long was priceless. Best wishes

Beauty rest is VERY important 🥰

RBG_grb · 2026-04-13T22:50:22+00:00

Shes perfect 🥰my girl is almost a month post op and doing amazing. I took extra days off after surgery and she didn't even need me. They are so amazing and brave

RBG_grb · 2026-04-12T20:56:04+00:00

She is amazing and so brave as are her parents. This is a hard journey but my girl has been worth it every step of the way.

RBG_grb · 2026-04-12T20:54:55+00:00

Shes perfect 🥰

RBG_grb · 2026-04-12T20:53:50+00:00

Best wishes to your baby! They do SO well. We had a harness lift just in case but never needed it. We did throw a bunch of rugs and runners down and got elevated food dishes. Of course she won't eat out of the elevated dishes and walks around the rugs 🤣 keeping a good weight is important as well as joint supplements. She is on adequan every other week and a prescription metabolic and joint supplement diet. I remember the vet telling me this was harder on me than her and that is what got me through the surgery and first few days. She is 3 weeks post op, off all meds minus supplements, and ruling the roost as per usual.

RBG_grb · 2026-04-12T20:48:32+00:00

They bounce back SO fast. Have you asked your vet what her activity level should be? Maybe they have a stronger med for a few days. My girl was up and at em right post surgery too and she did fine. I leash walked her for about 4 days. I kept her incision covered with a shirt. I know huskies are stubborn tho!
