I just brought Charlie home this evening. He was doing so well that they wanted him to come home. He still has many of the same neurological symptoms (mainly mobility and vision in one eye) but he hasn't had any pain episodes yet.
Dr. A. said it's too soon to tell what the outcome will be, and I told him I knew that from the beginning, but we want Charlie to have this chance for a better life. We have to be cautiously optimistic because Charlie is the severest case Dr. A. has seen - he says Charlie is in a class of his own. So we can't jump for joy yet.
Dr. A. and his tech went over all the instructions and medications with me and answered questions (I had a list). He is taking Tramadol, which is very strong. I have never seen him so relaxed. His body and face are softer now. Charlie has a 2 week checkup scheduled for 12 days from now.
The little guy is in his crate resting comfortably. :slp: I am so relieved with each hurdle we cross.
