My Dog’s Knee Surgery—Life In Blue

ADVERTISEMENT

So here’s the story, about a year ago my dog, Korbin, was running to the house from the back yard when he got to the deck he made a strange yelp and started limping. After going to the vet, we were given some medication and sent on our way.

We brought it up again, but the resolution was trying to keep him from playing with his sibling, and lowering activity didn’t help the limp.

Fast forward to this year during his physical; we were told that he had terrible arthritis, and he would need TCL surgery (surgery on the knee). He had torn his MCL and CCL (dog equivalent of ACL) and also had bad arthritis. The vet said, “if we had gotten to it sooner, we could have prevented arthritis. Luckily, the surgery went great, and when he got home, we decided to give him a stuff avocado toy he loves to play with and his jammies to snuggle in.

He’s doing well now, and he finally got his cone off! Still, a bit to go towards healing, but he’s doing great and responding well to the at-home therapy!

Picture right when Korbin got home from hospital. He was still a bit loopy but was happy to be home

The jammies were so the other dogs wouldn’t lick his surgery point…the cone was so he wouldn’t. He’s much happier now that he’s on a good road to recovery!

Ok Blue is a webcomic that was inspired me on a night during a week of insomnia back in November, 2019. There were a lot of stressors in my personal life at the time and I couldn't sleep at all. I had just got a new iPad Pro and this time allowed me to practice drawing in Procreate for the first time. When I finally had a comic idea and sketch I liked, I began coloring the main character, who I’ve referred to as “Jerry” but doesn’t really have a formal line. I chose blue but the outlines didn’t seem right, so I made them a darker blue and before I knew it, I had colored EVERYTHING blue. When I was done, I looked at the page and said, “Ok, Blue”. I created my Instagram page a few weeks later after drawing about 8 comics for a backlog and figuring out the shading scheme. In my sketchbook, I like to doodle talking object and animals, so I’ve bring bringing those creations into the comic as well. I hope just to make people laugh and raise awareness to helping others whenever possible. I have a few serious comics but overall try to keep the feel of them light and family friendly. My editing process is usually me trying to make my wife laugh (it gives me a kick when she smirks or chuckles at one of my drawings or tells me that they’re good), she also is great at grammar so proofreads them! If there’s ever a spelling mistake it means I jumped the gun  My first comic, “I missed you” debuted on Instagram on December 4th, and since I’ve gained a small audience that is really engaging and great to hang with (we recently started a discord server and call ourselves the Blue Crew!). I’m introverted so I feel this is a good way to put myself out there but also maintain a safety zone behind my iPad. I hope in the future to refine some of the characters and possibly give them small arcs. I’ve always enjoyed writing and would like to incorporate more stories, but only if it maintains the same vibe. It’d be great to meet more people through the medium and I’ve always wanted to do a comicon and sell T-shirts/merch, mainly because I think it’d be cool to see someone rocking an OKBlue T-shirt on the street. Hopefully I’ll feel confident enough to get jumping on those things someday! In short, thank you for reading OKBlue Comics, I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoy making them. Feel free to come on over to Instagram and hang with the Blue Crew anytime! https://www.instagram.com/okbluecomics/
