Question
Hi Hilary, just a follow up on Madison (torn ligament in left hind leg)...
she had surgery today and Dr. Marino (LI Vet Specialists, Plainview, NY)
has assured us that she is doing fine.  her blood test showed a slight
elevation in liver and wants to follow this up with ultrasound.  so of
course I am a wreck.. I just wanted to let you know how thoughtful and
kind you were when we first emailed you about my "baby".  

Answer
Hi there!  I am SO happy that Madison is doing well.  I worked with Dr. Ron Hodges (Internal Medicine Specialist/Orthapedics,ect.) in PA...he knows Dr. Marino!  Just had to tell you!  I have heard wonderful things about Dr. Marino, so Miss Maddie is in fine hands!
Don't panic about her liver!  Alot of things can cause elevation in the liver enzymes, between stress, not eating as well as usual, ect.  Don't be stressed!  Your baby is in the hands of a genius and if there is anything she needs, she'll get it, plus a million times more!
Thanks for the compliment, that's so sweet of you!
Hang in there and PLEASE let me know how she does!
Hilary
