Grandpa's Boo-Boo

Well, it's official! Grandpa has a boo-boo, but not any broken boo-boo's. Phew... That is a good thing! No broken wrist, no broken shoulder. He injured his rotator cuff and is in a funny looking thing that Mommy called a sling. He looks pretty funny. He has to go back at the end of next week to see the Ortho Vet Dr. They hope by then he will get back some range of motion 'cause right now he can't lift his arm up. If he can't lift it by his appt. he will have to have further testing to see if he ripped something in there. So fur now, Grandpa can't drive so Mommy will schlep him around. (Not that we think Grandpa should be driving mind you, he is 87 after all).

We love you Grandpa and we hope your 'petting us arm' is better real soon.

  1. Glad nothing's broken! Hope he's all better soon! You girls need to be good nurses and give lots of snuggles, that always helps my people feel better!

  2. Sorry to hear about your grandpa's fall. Hope he heals fast. Licks help so give him lots, and just lie there next to him and give hm comfort. That's exciting that you got mail! Lady has gotten four cards from the US already, but none for me yet.
