Opal and Marki's Status 1/29/13

Now I found my camera but cannot find the USB to computer charging cord so I'm going to buy a new one tomorrow. So, I am posting pictures GBAR took of both Opal and Marki, but will put in updates as soon as I have a functional camera.

Opal on the day she arrived at my house

Opal is having her surgery today (Tues.)  She has endured what appears to be a painful, very large (billiard ball sized) mammary tumor between her back legs as well as a very infected and evidently painful mouth full of teeth that will need to be extracted.  I will take her in at 7:30 AM and pick her up at 4:00 PM when Bubba and Gizzy will get updated bordetella vaccinations.  Then it will be quiet time for all of us.  Please keep Opal in your thoughts and prayers.

Marki temporarily housed at Parkside
before I picked her up for fostering.
She's much cuter than this picture depicts.

 Marki will need the same surgeries, but her mammary tumor(s) are not as severe and she does not show signs of being in pain.  I am hoping to get that all scheduled tomorrow as well, hopefully for later this week.
