Jake Update

Today was Jake's post op appointment and the Dr. said everything is looking great. He has very little swelling and his stitches and surrounding areas look good. Jake started walking Saturday night and is only getting around better. His doctor also said that he needs to stay off of it as much as possible. He still has his stitches until the beginning of next month. I am so grateful that everything went well and that he is healing great. Hopefully next year we will be surgery free!

Here is a picture I took with my camera phone (it kinda sucks) but that black mark is the 2 stitches he has and where they inserted the cone. As you can see it is a small incision (it's about the size of a pencil top). Jake could not believe that it was that small, he said that all the pain that he was in it seemed a whole lot bigger.
