Update on Vel

Vel was up and moving around with the help of a walker yesterday! She looked good, when I went to visit her yesterday afternoon and is anxious to get going on her recovery!  Last evening she started getting hives, so she's allergic to something. The nurse gave her some benadryl and that took care of them.  Dr. Reckmeyer visited her last night and said he took off several bone spurs and smoothed off the back of her knee cap.  He said with the new knee in place, she will see a world of difference.  So, if all continues to go well, I should be able to bring her home tomorrow.    We'll have to put a barrier around her knee, as the dogs will be so happy to see her, I'm sure they will want to jump up and give her kisses!-M
