Sofie {Still} So Hurt

Sofie did not get better yesterday. -At All. She actually seemed worse. On the ride to the office she somehow scratched herself with her hind legs {she is itching very badly} and started bleeding while I was on the freeway. It was a nightmare. My father helped me settle her and we wrapped her with a towel, secured by the almighty packing tape. She couldn't scatch the wound and it held off until the vet could see me at 4:15. My dad followed me up there to help hold her. Which thank God he did because she was very restless, and squirly and I can hardly hold her back on a good day, let alone a bad one. Once again, Dad comes to the rescue. The vet said she didn't rip the stiches open though, and gave us a strechy gause to put around her body to cover the stiches...and then some powder for the itching.

What I want to know is what the f*&k these vets are thinking? Why don't they give you these things just in case these things happen? Or ask you if you would like them -just in case. Especially after her getting surgery on a Friday, they didn't call on sat or monday to see how she was. I am very upset at them, and am going to look around for a different vet.

Steve didn't make it home until 8 last night, I wasnt' able to leave and go to Jazzercise, and then we wound up fighting b/c of a whole bunch of things. Like his ability to spend money sooo foolishly... Finaly we gave Sofie a tramadol to make her sleep and she was out the rest of the night. I still feel like I got no sleep though. Maybe I should take one too...?

I am making no predictions about today. We'll see how it goes...
