Thanks Lauren, you are too sweet! I am going to phone for an appointment tomorrow. He seems to be back to normal, playing with Coco etc. and nagging to swim... if ever we are bare feet or in shorts he thinks it's swim time! When I carry towels to the laundry he thinks I'm on my way to the pool, then the talking doesn't stop. Our weather seems to be improving, much higher temps , so we will swim with him more often. They both know they are not allowed to swim without us.

I think his mouth is better after the cleaning, so now we can concentrate on his hip.

I will update after our appointment.

Hugs,
