If you follow me on twitter (@sensiblysassy) you probably already know that yesterday when Jon came home he noticed that there was something really wrong with Frank's eye. The eye he JUST had surgery on. So Jon called me at work and told me that he was taking Frank to the vet. Long story short his cherry eye has popped out and he needs to have surgery again this Thursday. I just. Ugh. I don't even know what to say. Just when I thought he was feeling better it gets worse, way worse. No matter how many times Jon re-assures me that there wasn't anything we could do to prevent it, there is a big part of me that feels so guilty. Like I could have done something better, seen a sign that his cherry eye would be popping out again. But if I am realistic about things I know that I could not have prevented any of this, because if I could have I would have.But still.
I just do. I can't help it. I feel so bad that my little man has to go through being put under and cut open again. So bright and early on Thursday I will be dropping off Frank and I won't see him again until Friday morning. And then we start the re-couping process all over again. Let's hope this time it works!

:( Oh Sarah. I'm so sorry to hear that. Burrito was sick again last week and we had to take him to the vet.. it is just so stressful and sad and frustrating. Thinking of you and little man. All that to say, I know how you feel... but Jon is right.
xo
Awwwww. But look how cute he is in his little muscle tee!!!
I'll be thinking about Frank :-/
My own problem child is still in her cone of shame because I let her off for one night and then busted her at 3 in the morning messing with her foot. *sigh* It's hard to be a puppy mom sometimes.
I'll keep Frank in my thoughts on Thursday honey.
I'm so sorry to hear this! And yes Jon is right, but of course as a puppy-mama I'd feel the same I'm sure.
I'll be thinking of your little man on thursday and friday. And I'll pray for a speedy recovery! And that you can keep your sanity through it all :)
I'm so sorry honey! I know Frank will be okay, but it sucks that this is such a long road for all of you. As far as the guilt? I think that's a natural part of loving another creature so much. I had the same guilt when Murphy got sick and we had no idea...we just have to do the best we can and realize that we are doing the best we can. I know you and Jon are! You are wonderful parents and I know he'll be better soon. Sending lots of love to all of you!
Awww, poor Frank! And poor you guys! :( I'm so sorry Frank has to go back for surgery. That's terrible. What a stressful situation. BUT -- it's so not your fault! You guys are the best puppy parents! Seriously, Frank couldn't ask for a better dog mom and dad!
Thinking about your puppy family! XOXO
p.s. Frank's shirt is too much fun! So cute.
aw i hope frank is okay and surgery went well today.
