Just got the call....platelet count is ok....within the next 30 minutes Hurley will be under and getting surgery. The surgery will last for about an hour....the surgeon will call me when Hurley is out and doing good.....
I can't believe that finally this is happening....I am tearing up right now just thinking of Hurley getting prepped and ready for this surgery...I know he is so very confused, but know he is probably licking all the hands that are touching him right now....I love him so much. Didn't think I would react like this..l will be ok......
Love to you all.....

Regina

UPDATE: 4:15 pm Tuesday

Hurley just got out of surgery...went very well!!! Yeah!! Hurley is now being taken over to the Emergency Vet that is inside the same building. He will be there overnight. Hurley will have round the clock care and be on morphine...
Thank you everyone for the outpouring of love for Hurley. The prayers you have being saying have worked. The cysts between his eyes have been removed!! I can't believe I am saying that..! I have been dealing with these for so long now....
Hurley will have 1-2 months of healing time and he will have the second surgery to remove the 4 on top...
I will go up there soon and bring his food. I will pick him up tomorrow around 1 pm...
I will call tonight and get a checkup on him...
I will be sending updates as I get them.....!!

Thank you God...for watching over Hurley....!!

UPDATE: 7:45 pm

Went to drop of Hurleys food...was not allowed to see him, but understood why..(he would get upset if he saw me) they took a picture of him...they warned me that he looks very bad....and he does...I did not realize that he would have so many stiches...his left eye has drooped too..they said that some of the drooping could be from the surgery and everything is swollen and all the drugs he is on...I asked if this drooping will affect his eyesight. They could answer anything because they are not the doctor. I will have to wait until tomorrow. I know I was warned about him being deformed. They said that it could of been a lot worse...don't think I am complaining at all....it's just so hard to see him like that, and that was only a picture. They said give it 12 to 24 hours...then swelling will go down....

Gosh....why do I feel guilty?? It's when I saw his eye and all those stiches....I feel so bad for him right now..I know he is in pain. Thank goodness he is on morphine right now. The stiches go from the between his eyes to over his eyes along his eyebrow line to the end of the eyebrow line. This is going to be a long road for him to recover. This surgery was the hardest. The 4 on top will not be like this surgery...

I will post an update later...he is going to eat around 9:00 tonight. I am calling at 9:30 to see how he is doing and will update after I call....

Thank you all....

Love,

Regina

Doodle Kisses to you all,

Thinking of you Regina!!!!  Poor Hurley - I sure hope that they operate today!!

 

Not confusing to me. Platlets will stack and clump- they are sticky. That sticky stuff also is what helps blood clot! A manual differential count will give you a truer reading. Just takes a fewintes more to stain and process. Don't let that worry you. It's more common than you think.
Hey, did you know you can just Update this same discussion all day ( instead of posting a lot of little new ones).
?? It's a great way to follow an ongoing story.
At the top right you will see the option- Edit. Click that on and restyle updates all day as needed. It may be less confusing to those of us following all day.
Once you change the message and the title, UPDATE, click save again! Easy!
Change your titles and we will know when an update has occurred. We are all thinking of you today
Ok...I just read this...I will read it again and figure it out!, thank you...!

I hope you hear something soon, Regina. Sending positive thoughts for you and Hurley.

Ditto.

Thinking of you and Hurley today!  Paws crossed for the best possible results! 

the waiting must be torture, chin up Regina, you've come this far.

I think the large platelets are due to the fact that the count was low but the offending drug was stopped. Young platelets are formed by breaking off larger cells. So this is probably just a sign that Hurley's body is now making the platelets he needs.

Ahhh. Thought they were just clumpy. Makes sense too!

Clumpy while circulating not so good : )

Hoping that Hurley is able to have his surgery today and keeping you all in prayers!

Thinking of you guys.  Hang in there.
