On Tuesday, July 14th, Jake was climbing on an entertainment center (we think) and the T.V. somehow fell off....landing on his left foot. Curt took him to the ER (because I was on my way home from Ohio at the time). After 7 loooong hours in the ER, they were sent home with a splint, a prescription for pain meds and orders to see a specialist the next day. The x-rays and CT scan showed a fracture of the heel bone and also a misplacement of another bone :( The podiatrist put a cast on him and said it would take about 5-6 weeks to heal.
This little kitty was given to Jake by the ER dr.
Tuckered out. FINALLY getting some sleep!
Jake really had a rough time for the first few days....but thankgoodness he is happier now and is figuring out how to get around with that big club on his foot. We go back in to see the foot dr. on the 29th...more xrays and a new cast. Jake wants red this time :)
