Yeah, my husband's a keeper for sure.

I wish I had a picture of it: 6'2", 220# and bad hip lying on the floor next to a 2.5# yorkie wrapped in green bandages

Scooter is doing very well. His energy is coming back and he wants out of his room. Every once in awhile he will move too quickly or turn a certain way and give out a YELP, so he has to stay in the bathroom to keep his activity level down for his own protection. We have a gate on the doorway so he's not closed up in there.
He took the bandage off of his leg during the night (just from the IV site) but I was going to remove it today, anyway.) He limps with that leg still, but the dr said that he would do this since that side of the body is sore. I only have to medicate him for pain once during the day and again at bedtime. His appetite is good and no more diarrhea.
I'm making him a special shirt/vest to wear for his return visit to Dr. Downs on Friday. I'll post pics this week.
Thanks for all of the prayers and get well wishes you have sent to Scooter. They have made all the difference in the world to his recovery.
