Valor is OUT of Surgery!


Valor's surgery took much longer than anticipated as the damage was greater than what could be seen on the X-Rays. The surgeon feels that everything went back together very well and even though there was more damage which required more work and additional plating, she was very confident Valor would make a full recovery.

Valor will be kept mildly sedated tonight with a morphine drip for the pain and will probably spend an additional night at the clinic to help alleviate his pain and monitor him before being released to go to his foster home, hopefully sometime on Saturday. The worst is now over, the surgery is completed, it was successful and now we just have to continue praying and sending positive thoughts and energy that there are no complications for Valor. Each day he will get stronger and be able to start using his legs and rebuilding muscle and stamina. Each day will get him closer to the day he can finally run and play again.
