Gracie update

Gracie made it through surgery. The doctors think they successfully removed the tumor. We'll know more when we receive the pathology in a couple weeks. So far, so good. She is such a spunky girl and with pain meds doesn't want to be kept down. She has a 6-inch incision on her chest/belly so we have to keep her leashed and as calm as much as possible. She also has to wear an elizabethen collar as she apprarently ripped a couple stitches out before she even left the vet. She also has on an old t-shirt of mine as her wound is draining a bit (sorry, I know that's gross but I wanted to give you a visual of how goofy she looks). Ray leaves tomorrow morning for Florida so I'll be taking care of the crazy Gibson household solo - well, with a little help from Grandma & Grandpa Gouger :) We are so thankful for their help and love that they are so close to us.

Hope you and yours are well!! - k
