Dave went to see the orthopedic specialist on Friday -- we saw the fractured bone at the base of his big toe and the toe next to it. Goes back in again on Thursday for updated xrays. In the meantime, he is to put no weight on the foot, keep it elevated and iced. We also got him a roller-aid (looks like a three wheeled scooter with a seat where he can rest his knee of the bad foot and scoot himself around the house. Thanks for the rays so far. Figure healing will be 6-8 weeks and if it's healing properly, then no surgery will be needed. We're hoping for no surgery.....
Fingers and paws :xfinger: crossed for no surgery! More rays headed his way! :pray:
Ah geez, as if life isn't hard enough as it is! Is he in any pain? I too am hoping for no surgery, I will keep praying. Thanks for the update please tell Dave we are all thinking about him.
:pray: :pray: Praying for no surgery for Dave :pray: :pray:
Keeping good thoughts and lots of rays headed your way...... :xfinger: no surgery !
:pray: We are praying for no surgery and and a quick recovery!! That does sound painful.
Oh man Dee, I do not know HOW I missed this. I hope that everything goes well for Dave. I'll be praying that he can avoid the surgery. Geez.... no fun at all!
