Very good news today!
Guinness is reportedly doing remarkably well! Today when the nurses were getting set up to help him outside, Guinness got up on his own and walked outside on three legs with no assistance! He immediately tried to go over to the parking area, looking to get the hell out of there.
He's eating, wagging his tail and they are weaning him off IV pain meds, switching over to oral meds so that we can bring him home early this evening! This is all very encouraging.
We're also looking into treatment options. (Note to Sarah: I talked to our vet and mentioned the trials you were involved with with Indy, and we discussed that. Being that it was from OSU, which is where our vets graduated from, he is making contact there to see our options. I just went to the website, and it looks like we should be eligible for the same (or very similar) study. If we qualify, which it appears he does, we'll be doing that).
More to come, I'll update when Guinness comes home!
