Follow Up Visit

Mr. Lava had another follow-up visit with Dr. Morrison on Wednesday and the results were very encouraging!  Dr. M is pleased with Lava’s bone growth and removed another pin from his external fixator device.  He is doing so well that Dr. M doesn’t want to see Lava for four weeks!  At this rate, our boy MIGHT have his fixator removed by his next visit, and we are being cautiously optimistic.

Lava did experience some bleeding later that evening at the pin site, but his foster family quickly brought it under control and he is doing fine now.  He also continues to have some pain management issues, but that is improving as well.  Lava’s foster family continues to work on his physical therapy, and he remains a goofy, happy pup!  He also seems to receive more visitors than the Skis do and is a gracious host.
