Good news! Jackson is fine!
Hello pals! Jackson's operation went well. The surgeon removed approximately 40 small and medium sized stones from his bladder. The small ones were the size of apple pips and the larger ones were 3 times that size. Imagine having all those stones rolling around inside you! I bet he's going to feel soooooo much better without them.
In case you're curious, this is what bladder stones look like when they're magnified...
A bit like baked beans!
Jackson asked me to thank you very much for all your kind messages and good wishes. Paws crossed, he'll be home on Friday!
Toodles!

G'day Hamilton and Jackson,
Wow those are almost as many stones as my mum finds in one day of archaeology digging. I just know Jackson will be feeling better not having those inside. I had my paws cwossed for him and I'm so glad everything turned out.

Hi Jackson,
What an ordeal you were through! 40 stones is very impressive, especially ones that look like potatoes. I am happy that you are doing well. You will feel so much better. I hope that when you get out of the hospital you will get lots of treats!
Get well soon, Jackson, and good luck!
Lots of Koobuss Kisses,
Koobie
P. S. Hamilton did a nice job on your blog in your absence.
I'm so glad Jackson is OK!! Sherman has struggled with struvite crystals much of his adult life & I'm petrified they're going to turn into stones one day.
Get Well Soon Jackson!!
