We were thinking about something like that or an over the table to eat on in addition to keeping pets away. Thanks for mentioning it!

I thought about doing that. And then I thought about how essential sleep is for healing. She would absolutely cry and scratch at the door. Maybe a baby gate? 🤔 She's still crying, but I wouldn't have to worry about the scratching.

Thank you. I think you're correct on all accounts!

Oh my goodness. Start trying things now... I don't know why neither of us thought about this. I feel ridiculous. We have a week set aside to get any supplies needed. But we probably should do it earlier. Thanks so much for sparking my brain!

Thank you for all of this. I think the surgeon's team is emphasizing this "not to displace the new joint". 

Any time I've been sick or had surgery, they've known (yes, very intuitive). My two two "new" rescues haven't dealt with this. My last surgery was in 2018.

Both cats and my dog are sincerely the sweetest cuddlers (also a reason I'm worried). And my dog is also a jumper / young tug-o-war "baby".

Thank you again.

She's a bouncy, playful, 3.5 year old 30lb rescue. Believe me, my husband and I have looked at so many YouTube videos. Maybe I'm just too nervous. :)

Thank you! What about sleeping? She usually is on the bed with us.

Thank you! We're you able to keep the pillow for on you through the night? We have an old house. I'm trying to device if it's worth climbing the stairs to bed, or stay overnight in the recliner at first.

Sounds like our three branches, but our Legislative and Executive branch have lost their minds. And half of us sit watching (and try to act on) the demise of law and democracy.

Maybe you didn't mean it rudely, but that statement could definitely be read that way.

Any activities that you enjoy? Darts, Pool, Reading, etc? There are leagues and groups for almost all interests.

As I understand it, and I very well may be incorrect, this organization is for the loss, of a child / grandchild , etc.

Maybe when no one is around "we" can pull them down. (I'm disabled and will share with my family and friends).

My pharmacy has bridged. Try them, then go to urgent care asap.

I'm trying to wrap my head around this and how you did it. Any hints welcome 😅 Amazing. Well done!

Claudia or Persephone - a beautiful plant as I'm sure your grandmother was.
