Home Again and Doing Well

My sister Susan is visiting for Christmas. She helped me get Bocán home yesterday afternoon, and I am happy to report that he is doing remarkably well.

When I learned that they had removed all of the hardware from his left leg, in addition to performing the osteotomy and installation of hardware on the right leg, I frankly expected him to be incapable of walking. I know I would have been!

However, he is walking (or rather, hopping) about as well as he did last weekend, although his range between rests is only a few dozen hops. That's enough to get outside to do his business, and make it back to the bed.

In this photo he is resting with cold packs on both legs, after a long massage. He was actually quite comfortable and slept for a while afterward.

He is doing so much better today than he was after his first night back home last time. I'll get another picture of him later today.
