I just got off the phone with Jen and they are optimistic that Baxter might get to come home Monday or so. The attending physician (after her examination) did say that Baxter is not paralized. THANK GOODNESS! He is however, having trouble even standing on his own, and this is probably due to some swelling in the brain along with a herniated disc? He may still need surgery and that is what Jen and Brandon are waiting on now. He is in an MRI now, and will find out something as soon as he gets out of his MRI. If it is determined that no surgery is needed, Baxter will be sent home with a sling to help him get back on track as his leags learn to walk again. He will probably need help going to the bathroom and the sling will help with that. I am so happy with this news and we will all remain hopeful that Baxter can return home happy and healthy.
More to come.
