Such Wow So Many Pills Much Sleepy
Strider's hip replacement surgery was a success, now we're at home with a host of pills.

A - Anti Inflammatory pills, every 8 hours starting at 4pm
B - Antibiotic pills, every 8 hours starting at 5pm
C - Pain killer pills, every 12 hours starting at 9pm
D - Pain killer fluid, every 24 hours

Strider had no trouble walking despite an 8 inch long stitched wound. Amazing how strong he is. He's been singing either like a Wookie or howling like an opera signer while resting at home as we sat by him to make sure he doesn't nib on his wound.

After 1am I can probably get back to work

[6:30AM]
Everything went black at 1 and I napped for another 4 hours, guess I needed to recharge. sweatdrop Then I woke Strider up and that followed by an hour and a half of walk, food, and belly rubs

Some down time to take care of your dog wouldn't hurt but we know you have a deadline. Just don't over do it n.n

I agree. Take some to take care of him - and yourself. Give him huggles for me. And give a kissy to Mr Waffles for me too.

Poor little guy sad Hope he starts feeling better! Having a pet (or baby) hurt or in pain is one of the worst feelings.

Glad to hear Strider's surgery was a success! Hoping his recovery goes smoothly and he doesn't try to nib on the wound!!
Thank you for working so hard lately. It's really appreciated. Also good to hear that you let yourself get some rest!

Is Strider named after the LotR character? Hee, that's pretty cool. I'm sure he'll be better soon.

And get some sleep Lanzer! You can be at your best if you're only semi awake! You should take care of yourself too!

Go Strider go, go Strider go! ^-^

And Lanzer, take a little while to be with your doggy! Gaia can wait!
We waited 2 years for you to come back. We can wait a little while longer for more changes! ^-^
Plus, i'm sure a little rest would do you some good, you've been working hard! ^-^

Awww, I hope Strider feels better soon!

Make sure you're sleeping, as well. We don't need you passing out on us.

REST! Go snuggle with Strider and give him some comfort, taking a nap with him. You don't need to work yourself so hard. You're already lightspeeds ahead of how things were going before you came back.

Oh man, I've been there with managing those pill schedules. It's so worth it, though, especially as you see them improve and feel better as the days go by.

I found it easiest to sit down and make a calendar/list that states what time each pill should be given for each day. And leave a line or box next to it that can be initialed or checked off each time.
And keep the list either by where you keep the meds or where you give the meds. If you get into the habit of checking off the list, it saves you from so much worry about whether you'd forgotten a pill (and having to count them) or forgetting if you had accidentally been off the schedule by 30 mins or not (something that should also be written on the master list).
It's sooooo useful for those times when you're getting up in the middle of the night just to administer a pill.
(It works well for both taking care of humans and pets. xD )

I'm glad to hear that Strider has been recovering well so far!
