Randall undergoes first surgery

Randall had his first surgery and is now recovering to prepare for his second surgery. His first surgery was a grueling 5 hours. The surgeons decided to repair the right front leg/wrist and right hip. An additional fracture was discovered a bit higher on his right leg so the cast and splint will need to be a bit higher than planned. His FHO surgery on his hip went well and should provide him more stability. His other leg was also prepped for the next surgery while he was under anesthesia so his second surgery will not take so long. Although you see that both legs are splinted, it is only to keep them stabilized. His left front leg will be corrected next. He was mostly sedated the following day of surgery to keep him comfortable but is doing well now with pain medication. Our hopes that he does as well with his second surgery and can come home soon to recover and start his long road of rehabilitation.

We are extremely thankful for those who have given to Randall but he still needs your help!
