📣Astrid is looking wonderful after surgery earlier today with her compassionate surgeon, Dr. Coutin, at Veterinary Specialists Of Greater New Orleans. 💗
Dr. Julia shared that the procedure to repair Astrid’s fractured elbow went very well—giving this sweet girl the best chance at keeping her leg and getting back to a full, happy life 🐾💗
We always do everything we can to save a limb, though we know cost can sometimes make that difficult. Because of our amazing supporters, Astrid has received gold-standard care over the past week and a half after being found on the interstate and rushed to the ER at LVCC.
Today feels like the beginning of her next chapter, and we’re so hopeful. That said, we’re staying cautiously optimistic as she’s been dealing with some GI issues, which we’re hoping are simply a side effect of the strong medications she’s needed.
We're grateful to Dr. Julia and the entire New Orleans' team for taking such great care of her!
We’ll share another update in the morning—thank you all for continuing to keep Astrid in your thoughts 💕
