Amber & Suture Removal



First things first: Woody is doing well. (Hence the smiling cat. Which is not Woody.) Dr. Pacchiana says that his incision is healing relatively well and that the knee repair feels solid. He showed me some techniques to use for the physical therapy (not Woody's fave) and said to try taking off the collar, but to make sure he didn't immediately go after the wound.

Of course, as soon as I took off the collar, he went straight for licking, so he's back in his Elizabethan get-up.



Now, we need 8 weeks of restricted activities and then the boy will be as good as refurbished.

Bodies are pretty amazing things. God bless, Modern Medicine.

And, special thanks to Jimmy for coming for moral and photographic support.
