yesterday i received a phone call from the emergency pet hospital—thank goodness for microchips—unfortunately there was bad news—soba was hit by a car two nights ago and has suffered serious trauma to her pelvic bone. she was in critical condition up until this morning. soba will be going into surgery in the next couple hours. she has been a fighter.
thank you everyone for your support, your love, your prayers, your phone calls/emails/comments. soba, nick and i have felt a lot of love in this hard time. she is so important to us. for those of you who have had the chance to meet soba, you know what an incredible dog she is with the most incredible personality. she has been such a great companion for us—being so far away from family and going through medical school.
continue to pray for her. the main concern is her nerves in her back leg, her brain function, her pelvic bone and her ability to control her potty parts.
we love you soba.

Miche ~ he's a fighter like his Momma I'm sure ... just like Boots the Sixth. Love, thoughts and prayers!
Aw Mich, I'm so sorry! That's so sad. I'll be thinking of you guys. Hang in there!
oh my freak! poor 'boba'. emery would be bawling if he knew. i just told him. he is bawling.
no, but seriously, i am so sorry. anything we can do?? you've had a rough few days huh. perhaps you and i should road trip it somewhere and ditch this state. chicago? okay.
call me and we'll come visit poor soba. although maybe emery isn't such a good influence if you're trying to keep her calm and still...
that's seriously sad. i hope soba feels better soon.
OH NO!!!!! Not Soba!!! I'm SOOO Sorry - How did they find her? I'm so glad she's alive and still hanging in there though - oh poor Soba, and you & Nick - and of all the times for Nick to be gone.
We'll totally be praying and thinking of y'all - keep us posted on how things go!!
She is a fighter. Keep it up Soba.
Thinking of you and that sweet little pup! If Soba is anything like her mama she will prevail, love you Michelle!
Poor Soba! I will keep my fingers crossed that she pulls through okay.
Oh Mich! I'm so sorry to hear about your pup. We had a pretty scary accident with our dog a couple months back too(not with a car, thank goodness), but it is heartbreaking! I totally feel for ya. Hope everything turns out okay. Love you guys!
I'm so glad Soba is home! Kris told me about it... sorry you had to go through that... Love you!! xoxo
