Ok so he felt his knees and i had a picture of his hips on on my phone which of course i showed him. His hips are completely gone and his knees are both completely torn :( he explained the stem cell procedure to me which they take brown fat which the only place u can get it is behind the shoulder and belly. Then they spin the fat to separate the fat from the cell. When he gets it back they will take a blood from the dog and mix the stem cell w the blood to get the stem cell activated then they implant into where ever needed. He said if we did do anything he would do his hips first then since we already have the stem cell that he would go ahead and implant some in knees. It wont fix anything but might give him some relief in the knees.

Well not very good news, was hoping for better, but maybe it will give him some relief for a little while. Give Lex a hug from us.

Well better than nothing anyhow. If it will make him feel some better then it is worth it. Was hoping for better news too.

I have talked w Jeff about it but we haven't gotten a chance to talk about it. He's family is in town for maddys soft ball tourney. Only lost one game so far :) so when everything gets back to "us" we will talk more. They aren't into dogs like we all are!
