Oliver had surgery on his left knee to repair his luxating patella. Oliver had a few complications with the surgery- he developed stress colitis, which made him not able to poop, and the pain medication he was on wasn't strong enough so we had to get him on a Fentanyl patch (100 times stronger than morphine). The first few days Oliver was pretty out of it, but the third day the patch had kicked in and Jared and I were pretty sure he was hallucinating. He will be out of commission for 6-8 weeks. Wish us luck on trying to keep this guy from jumping up on couches and going up the stairs.
We put Oliver in the pack n' play so he wouldn't run around

Picture of the incision- poor guy was shaved on the whole left side.
