Surgery Day

Surgery Day
Today is Henry's big surgery day. Needless to say, our anxiety is pretty high, but we are trying to stay positive and up beat so that Henry doesn't pick up on too much of our nervous energy.
To maximize his recovery time at the vet, Henry is the first surgery of the day. Which is great for a lot of reasons, but also means that we should hear from the vet mid morning.
I will do my best to post an update after we get Henry home and settled.
We have received an outpouring of support for Benjamin, Henry & Luna. I can not express how grateful I am for all the emails, cards and gifts. With everything going on, I am a bit behind in responding and thanking everyone. Please know that I blown away by the kindness of everyone in the OBP family I will be getting in touch soon.
UPDATE: Henry's surgery is over. He is in the recovery room now. The vet said it was not an easy surgery and there were a few things that made it a little tricky but Doc navigated them and now we are on to the next phase. The next 24 hours are critical. Doc said Henry is moaning and howling. While we know Henry can be a bit vocal, hearing that he's so uncomfortable that he's letting the world around him know about it and not just for his at home peeps is heartbreaking. We will be sure to up his meds tonight so we can get him as comfortable as possible. Thank you all for you continued good vibrations. Herny and his OBP peeps are feeling them. (And they are working!)

Many thoughts and prayers for you all today,
Ok hope this goes through as I couldn’t get a comment to post for the life of me last week.
Henry you are one of the strongest pugs we know so rock it like only you can! You’re in my non-stop thoughts and prayers. Love you so much sweetie!!!!
Prayers still going up for the best possible outcome concerning Henry’s surgery, and also for calmness for you and Glynne.
Your stamina considering the very stressful circumstances as of late is very admirable. I don’t think anyone of your OBP fans expects any kind of thank you. It is the way of expressing love and support.
Henry! You got this, man. Wishing you a speedy recovery and good news. Love you!
I will be thinking of Henry saying extra prayers for this precious boy

I am sending love prayers and positive thoughts to you all. I know this will be a long hard day for you. I just wish there was something more I could do.

Over the weekend, I thought so often of Henry and you both. And I’ve been praying. It was nice to know that Henry has been blissfully unaware of what has been so heavy on your hearts.

Thank you for adding your update. My prayers continue, especially that the next 24 hours go very, very well.
I hate it that Henry is moaning and howling, too. It will be better after you can get him home, and you will at least be able to give Henry all possible comfort from your loving hearts.
Much love to Henry and Corrine and Glynne from your Texas peeps, Bennie and Martha
