Everything is FABULOUS!

One day after surgery and it is as if Mason never had it.  He's back to his chipper self.  I'm letting him wander a bit but am controlling his zoomie episodes.  Had to stop back at the doctor to pick up the medicine to prevent infection which they forgot to pull out of the fridge for me.  SOOO...He's doing VERY well...BIG SMILES!!!

Thanks for all the prayers and support again.  We appreciate it so much!

One Sore Puppy...

Surgery went well today.  Mason is home and resting.  He is very sore and if he doesn't move and lays on a blanket beside me, he doesn't whine..I've discovered tonight that he seems most comfortable on a blanket instead of in my arms.  More stillness I guess.

Dr. Vernon had some challenge searching for and removing his boy parts.  When palpated, he could feel them right on his inner thighs.  When he cut open, he could only pull the tubes---but the jewels wouldn't budge.  They were stuck...so with a little maneuvering and expert technique, he was able to move a few things around, go through some fatty tissue and get to the treasure...both sides were a challenge.

Xrays showed a crowded mouthful of baby teeth and adult teeth trying to come through.  Dr. Vernon removed 14...YES 14 baby teeth that had not come out yet.  So yes, his mouth is really sore.  He has some stitches that will dissolve in time.  Thank goodness Dr. Vernon was able to give him a pain block when pulling his four baby canines!

Mason will return for a check-up next Wednesday.  If everything goes well, he will have about another week of waiting until he gets his stitches out.

Thanks for prayers and good wishes...He's such a trooper!!!  Hopefully, this will be the end of all the surgery for him.

PS...Total bill today...$1,017.75...every penny worth it.  :)
