Just when we thought we were finished with overnight hospital stays at Lucile Packard Children Hospital after Alec had a successful kidney surgery....then the Tyler Dog Bite happened this past Saturday.
At Alec's first comeback from surgery baseball game (fall ball league) Tyler was playing on the bleachers when he dropped the keys that he was holding. To his and our surprise a yellow lab lying with his owner reach over and bit Tyler in the hand causing a punchure wound. Linda immediately took him to the clinic. After irrigation and band aid we went home and thought that was the end of it. The next day his hand was swollen twice the size of his other hand. I took Tyler to the clinic and they advised that we immediately take him to the Childrens Hospital for IV antibiotics. That was Sunday. After two days in the hospital Tyler is now home recovering. Hopefully there will be no long term damage.
What a weekend.
