Twisted stomachs are apparently not much fun. Elder pooch is in emergency surgery with poor projected chance of survival. Nothing I can do at this point but wait for the phone call.

Dog update: Just got off the phone with her surgeon. 15% of her stomach was necrotized, which which is little enough that she can theoretically survive. But she'd also been in shock long enough to cause real concern, and there's problems with blood seepage which isn't coagulating properly. Right now her chances for survival are upgraded to a wary 60%. Another update expected around 4pm, so as long as I don't hear back sooner it means they won't have bad news.
