my poor wee boy

[lesley]

He seems absolutely indifferent to the fact hes had an operation. hes trying to run around already!!!! This whole rest thing should be fun!! hes a little bit bruised and trying to get round to his wound a bit but otherwise he seems absolutely fine!! He's obviously not using the leg yet but already it looks a normal shape and i think he has better movement in it already!

[kendal]

bet your glad to have him home. he looks fab and the stitching looks really good. he looks happy. will you be taking him to work next week to let them see him.

Nah mum and dad r back they're holidays tomorrow so they will keep him at home to save him coming back and forward with me. I'm off mon and thurs next wk so can keep an eye on him. Petrified he'll jump up on the couch and break his plate!! Had to put his collar on cos he's licking it a bit so now he's thoroughly depressed he he

yeah his stitches look amazin. when luke got plates in his leg because they stookied it for months when they changed the stookie the stitches looked very disgusting. and hes looking fab too. hope he will recover quickly. give him plenty of kisses and cudles

[lesley]

Yeah the stitches r all inside and just a row of staples on the outside. No bandages or anything, they need him to start using it fairly soon. I'm sure alfie will just love having all those staples removed tho....he's not the bravest!!

hiya Alfie looks great, next time he runs around the football park with Cooper i bet he catches him.

[lesley]

alfie is doing fab....better than i thought he would!! he's started to put that leg down when he walks already!!! id say hes almost walking better than he did before and its still got lots better to get. his hock is all puffy and swollen and his bruising is a bit worse today, inside of his leg is almost black in areas!! but i took him a wee walk up to the grassy bit up the road from me and he was trying to run around, think its worse cos he hasnt been getting his big walks so when he does get out hes raring to go. being really good and calm in the house tho, just lying up with me on the couch sleeping! hes on 2 lots of painkillers tho and think theyre making him a bit chilled. not arguing! so long as he doesnt get too used to getting all these cuddles!!!

[kendal]

fantastic, i take it his leg looks in a more comfortable position now? glad hes not fazed by it. is he showing any discomfort sitting or when in his bed or is he not bothered by it.

Yeah it's really good. Whereas before when he sat both legs pointed to the same side because his leg was bowed in, he now looks normal. And he's really not bothered by it. He's lying on the sore side just now which I'd have thought would b sore but he's snoring away!!
He has licked a staple out tho.....oops bad mummy not putting his collar on!!!!!

[Janis]

great news lesley.....i always knew he would bounce back but maybe not this quick............ well done alfie!
