The vet wants to try discharging Frank this afternoon. He said Frank is eating well, drinking well, and is completely off oxygen and his levels are good. He said Frank is relaxed when he is there. He was just concerned, as we are too, that he would get too excited seeing us and that the car ride home would be tough. So what he is going to do is prescribe Frank some Xanax. I am going over there after work this afternoon and he is going to give Frank the Xanax when I get there and we are going to see if he seems to relax enough to tolerate the car ride.
I am hoping that if we just get him through the ride home okay and he gets home, he will relax in his own environment with all of his beds and toys and familiar smells.
I am so happy beyond anything that he has pulled through. I feel like we just have this one obstacle to overcome and he can get back to recovering fully!
I can't thank everyone enough for their support and for following Frank's progress through all the ups and downs and for everyone's thoughts, prayers, and cheering him on. It means the world to us.
