Buddie is back in da hizzy!


Budz is back! We picked him up from the veterinary hospital. The oncologist was so sweet. We were all teary and hugging by the end. He was obviously well-loved there. It makes me happy to know how much he was cared for while he was so far from me.

It was a shorter drive this time around since it's too warm for snow (thank goodness!) But Budz was more restless on the way back due to the pain from the moist desquamation (side effect of radiation). I think the wound from the surgery looked visually more painful than now, but the radiation side effects seem much more painful to Budz. My poor boy! His pain may get worse this next week but, it should hopefully start getting better after that. Our poor guy could use a return to normal!

Awe poor Budz! I hope he gets better very soon. As long as he's home, he should get better with all the attention and TLC he'll get. He's too cute to be in pain.
