Hope he is feeling better. I had a lot going on so I didnt get down to the post office for a few day. I sent a card via 2 - 3 days. It should be there already or soon. If not let me know so I can track it. Can't wait for updates.

Checked the mail yesterday and nothing yet. Didn't have time today as I went to visit him as soon as I got off work. He was groggy after being sedated for his bandage change so I doubt he will remember I visited him. But he is doing well. Still not ready for the skin graft yet but maybe by Monday. I am soooooooo ready for him to be back home and well again. Thank you all for your support!

Thank you so much for the card and donation!

Tyson had surgery today and it went well. He will be under light sedation for awhile to keep him from moving too much while the skin graft heals. So I can't see him till probably Saturday. They said him seeing me would excite him to much. So that's a bummer for us both!

It is going to be Friday until I might get to see him. They vet said so far everything looks ok but they have to keep him sedated. So another week without my boy!

Good to hear that Tyson is healing but poor baby away from his family is both hard on you and Tyson. Thank you for update, sounds like he's on the road to recovery. :)

Got a call this morning and part of the skin graft has died and he has another infection in it. He is back on antibiotics now. Just hope the rest of the graft takes.

Oh no! Seems like the poor boy can't catch a break :( Thanks for the updates, we're all cheering for Tyson and you!

Vet called and said the graft isn't going to take so he is going to have scar tissue only. Bummer for us.

At least they were able to save his life and leg!

I'm so sorry, scooby56. You are right, they saved his life. :) Does Tyson have to stay at the hospital? Do you get to see him?

I haven't got to see him all week cause they didn't want him to get too excited. But seeing how the graft didn't work out I will definitely see him
This week.
