So Biz needed a total hip replacement, (missing right front, THR on right rear).
The worst part was not being able to visit or see him for 3 days after the surgery.
When i finally was able to see him/take him home, I had to have special instructions for the staff.
I required that they bring him into the room prior to my going in. He was to be layed down, and someone was to be there to prevent him from getting up. He's very stubborn and he also has sep anxiety, so when seeing me, I knew he'd go bonkers. I took a video of him after about 5 mins of my being in the room, before that just wouldn't have been possible.
