Kaylee is doing well, but she did have surgery today. In addition to taking five or six samples for biopsy, they inserted a jugular catheter (don't look if you have a sensitive nature). The poor girl's leg veins were starting to collapse since she's had so many needles in there in the last couple months. And she doesn't have to wear the space dog helmet with this, so hopefully she'll be happier.

She was still pretty doped up when we went to see her, but she stood right up and was all waggy, then put her head on our hands and basically conked out standing up. Poor little thing. They're going to keep her on a decent amount of pain meds for the next couple of days since they took so many slices out of her.

We may get her back on Saturday, but I'm not holding my breath. But I sure hope so!

Thanks for the good thoughts, everyone. I gave her a big smacky kiss from y'all today!
