MEDICAL BULLETIN
It was a hard night but Booker is doing a lot better. They had all kinds of extra bandages on him and every time the collar hit something it would jar the sutures and stuff.
But we just went to have the dressings change and all that superstructure is off and he is a different animal.
Also, the pain meds, strong I think, kicked in and he is much more comfortable.
Every once in awhile he is seen standing looking into space but he is eating and drinking and beginning to be his normal pesky self.
So glad.
He goes back now on Friday to see the doctor and to have the dressings changed again.
How about that. It is said that he is a good patient (they tell all the clients that) and a brave boy and I believe it. The same at home.
So happy to have the first phase over, over.
They did warn that for some inexplicable reason there is sometime a second hematoma in the other ear. Not welcome news but at least we can "plan" for it.
Oh.
We are doing well too. It is very hard to have our best friend feeling bad.
I forgot to mention before that we used this out time to get his teeth done too.
I take their word for it. I have never been able to figure out what is tartar and what is not and when it is bad (always I suppose).
