Awww Monday

Is it really Monday already?

My new best friend Tramadol Treat has had me in La La Land for a couple of days, but I am bright and alert now.  Well, at least for some short periods.  I spend a lot of time sleeping, but Mom says that is a very GOOD thing.  I can keep company with TT for 10 days:)

I was very uncomfortable the past two days, more so than the last time.  But I still manage to find a cozy position for napping:)

Mom says she is surprised that I find this to be a comfy position for my newly-repaired leg.  That would be the one up against the cabinet.

Here you can see me outside on the front lawn for one of my mini-walks.  I get to go all the way to the closest spot of grass from the front door.  You can see I am quite the patchwork Siberian now.  My left leg is now shaved in addition to the right one.  I have a small shaved spot near my tail where the epidural was done. And I have a bigger patch near my neck where they removed a whopper of a cyst.  Some incision photos follow if you are squeamish.

That's where the nasty cyst was.

And here is a look at my leg. Actually it isn't too bad to look at.  Although I am pretty bruised there and there is some swelling, at least there is no drainage this time.  The last time there was a lot, and that slowed up the stitch removal.  I hope things stay looking good so I can get those staples and stitches out at the two week mark instead of having to wait three weeks.

Here is a very short video of me walking in from the front door and back to the kitchen. Slow and steady, but looking pretty darn good.

And now if you don't mind, I think I will go back to sleep for a while.  I made it all the way to my cool tiles in the laundry room.  Mom has foiled my attempts to get on the hearth by covering it with all sorts of things.  But I told her I will soon be ready to grace the hearth again.

Thanks AGAIN for all the good thoughts and wishes.  I think I am FINALLY on the road to becoming a REAL Sibe once more.

Woos, Misty
