Hi! I'm caring for someone who is about a month out from bladder removal surgery. He has a urostomy bag with a stoma. He has a five-year-old golden retriever whom he adores! I've been caring for Maverick (golden retriever) at my house while he recovers from surgery. He's doing okay physically. All stitches dissolved and just getting his strength back. Mentally, he is a wreck. He doesn't think Maverick will ever be able to go home because he's afraid of his stoma and the bag. I'm hoping someone can share some words of wisdom that I can pass along!
