Parker update

For those of you following Parker's progress...he had a little setback. Thanksgiving evening we noticed that there was some leakage on the cast and a foul odor. We called the e-vet in Phoenix and they said to bring him in. Mind you it's almost 9pm and by the time we got the others fed, it was 9:30p before we left. We arrived in Phoenix at almost 11:30p, and they opened the cast to inspect. We found that there was a pressure sore that revealed a little piece of bone through the skin.

They suggested we leave Parker overnight so Dr. Gilson (his orthopedic surgeon) could check it out in the morning. So Parker stayed over and we drove home. Got back at 2:45 am.

We went back on Friday to pick him up and they had re-dressed the leg. He's now in baby blue. He needs to go back on Monday for a recheck...thank goodness gas isn't $4.00 a gallon now.
