I hope you both feel better soon!
Family healing. Love your matching accessories.
Your wife has a great sense of humor. But she should have given you a pick with some olives. You look like a martini!
Edited for spelling…I need to lay off the sauce.
And yet nothing is stopping you from licking each others wounds.
I do not like the cone of shame…
lucky you, i had to stay in the hospital 5 days after mine bud. get well soon!!!
You better stop itching or she will duct tape the oven mitts on you!!
That dog has seen some shit.
Probably from your appendectomy surgery.
Keep that handy for when you have a vasectomy
She could be hitting 3 pointers from all over the place
Heck, best of luck to you all.
Cone of shame is hard, but it will stop you licking where you shouldn’t.
You’ve got this bud!
So you’re saying you can lick your own balls.
Pretty good all things considered that you can recover at home from that. I was in for a few weeks.
Hope you are Okay Pyrionflax.. or northernlion… or knobtwiddler.
Thanks for the giggle. I hope you are both feeling better soon.
Can’t believe she won’t even let you lick your junk while your laid up. Are you sure she’s the one?
I’m impressed you need a cone good sir, your wife must be a happy lady
For a split second I saw your cone, then read the title and thought “oh he had an appendectomy, the cone makes sense!” Then I saw the dog and the joke clicked and I have no idea how my mind rationalized a cone for people
Mass removal? No wonder your dog is so tiny. Never get why people remove so much mass from their Dobermans.
Hey! Vsauce! Michael here!
Man I empathize with you. Just over a year ago I waited in the emergency vet parking lot for my dog who had a severe ear issue and had stomach pain myself. Ended up getting an appendectomy that evening.
Did you like, collapse at the vet’s office?
Buy a headboard. Your poor wife has been leaning her head against mini blinds lol
if you co-operate i bet you could lick each others stitches
You are so cute.
I had to take a double take of this pic…..dude, you’re a freaking riot.
That’s loyalty human.
Good human.
Solidarity in the cone of shame.
WIFE: – I didnt sign up for this
Just had mine out in November. The shoulder pain is normal it’s just the gasses dissipating from surgery. Keep hydrated or the headache will be brutal. And stick with soft foods for at least a week. Good luck on your recovery my friend
I hope you shared the picture with your vet and the surgical staff.
So you don’t lick your balls?
Bahahaha don’t lock your wounds bro lol.
Hope you both get better soon
There are soft cones now
Hah! YES!!!!

I brought a dog cone to surgery and the nurses helped me put it on before the surgeon came to check on me. Made the surgeon laugh so hard I he gave me his personal cell phone number to text it to him, not his professional phone.
Intriguing that there’s a window at the head of the bed.
Is the light not disturbing in the morning?
Oof, I’m sorry for you both! I had appendicitis two weeks ago, but luckily I started improving after an antibiotics infusion, so they just kept me on an antibiotic IV for two days and I didn’t have to do surgery after all.
Bruh, you look like in shape version of me. Got a picture without the visor on your head? I’m being serious here. Lol
Da fuq are you doing home 1 day after emergency surgery? You american or something?
Rumor has it that, years ago, OP had a rib removed so he could…. you know. That’s why the cone is necessary.
Luckiest man, and dog, in the world.
Technically that cone of shame should be around your hands unless you are some kind of yoga freak.
Hey brother u/ninja996 !
You and me… We are the same, you and me. Except I’m a week ahead of you.
I’m not gonna sugar coat it. This sucks! I have to walk around like an old man, and my stomach constantly feels tight and achy. Every time I think I’m ok to be even slightly more physical I end up feeling achy and sweaty and like I’ve pulled something.
So chill.
Take it veeeeery slowly.
Learn how to roll over using your arms and legs and neck.
No sex or yanking your plank until at least 2 weeks in (too much use of abdominal muscles, much regret).
And say thank you to your wife every chance you get. Mines been brilliant!
Good healing
Reading this in my isolated hospital bed after appendectomy 48h ago…
Hang in there OP!
Ahh the old ‘No Headboard, just mattress and box springs on a metal frame’ bed set up. Welcome to the club, my friend.
This is hilarious- thank you, I needed the belly laugh right now…sorry it’s at the expense of ur pain….
