Pogo's Mom · 04-28-2005, 04:58 AM

My Dad, who is elderly, lives with us. He was going out to the garage yesterday and didn't realize Pogo was behind him. Pogo's leg got hit by the door and it broke his Tibia (sp?). We were lucky that is all it did. He is in a wrap and cone (poor baby) for about 5 days. We got lucky. He could have lost a leg or been killed. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE put bells on your babies. It never even occured to us. I feel so stupid. My poor Father was utterly devastated, as were we. To make matters worse, it is pouring here in SoCal. We are trying to deal with potty training and such. I think Pogo will spend most of today wrapped in a warm blanket in my arms..
