Like I said in my other post, I am so sorry and I am praying for you. I agree with the others, follow you instincts, they never lie. God will help you on your way, and I am sure your decision for the surgery was the right one. So try not to stress out and just know that you are doing everything you can to make Hazel's life a fullfilling one. Good luck to you and Hazel *hugs*.
Thank you so much Michelle!
Please be responsible, spay and neuter your pets!
I've been BOO'd!!! Thanks Lori!
Oh honey, I'm sorry.
I'll be praying only for good things to come out of this surgery on Thursday.
Hazel...we're praying for you, sweetie.
...RIP, our sweet Gini...

I seem to be reading these threads in reverse order but nevertheless, do not second guess your decision.
On the one hand, if they go in and find 2 bad kidneys, she will leave you without further pain. And NOT doing the surgery (because she seems fine on and off) will not change what is already inside her.
On the other hand, if they go in and find 1 bad kidney, they can remove it and she won't be having the pain she has been having. And you will be giving her a chance that she would not have without the surgery.
Only God knows how sick she is right now. After surgery, the doctors will also know and there will be no question that the right thing will be done. You won't wonder IF you should put her to sleep to stop her suffering......IF you should try to let her alone to see if she can fight it off herself.........they will SEE what is there and KNOW.

This is basically what the Dr.'s said. I guess the selfish part of me is questioning this decision. I don't want to lose her so soon. I think she may last longer without surgery, but I know this has got to be the way.

Today's the day. Lisa, just wanted to let you know I'll be thinking about you and praying for Hazel. No matter what the outcome, you're doing the right thing. I'm thinking positive and am confident her one kidney will be ok and she'll be home in no time.

Oh thank you! I'm so nervous, and my poor husband has to be the one to wait by the phone. I just couldn't do it. I held and kissed her this morning, and she just purred and purred. I will let everyone know as soon as we hear anything. I didn't sleep very well last night and already feel exhausted.
