Case of the Month (Continued)
the abdominal cavity was persisting. The infection, though improving, was still with Toby. He had a very low energy level as well.
Another surgery was contemplated, but it was decided that we would see how Toby did at home. It was believed that maybe he would feel a little better in his own environment. After all, he had been in the hospital for nearly two weeks and he was only weighing about eight pounds. So, much to his family's delight, Toby went home.
About two weeks later, Toby came back to the hospital to show us how he was feeling. He was running all over the hospital greeting the staff that he had come to know so well. It was reported that he was eating well at home and acting like himself again. He weighed over ten pounds and showed no signs of illness! We were so happy to hear about his progress and decided that Toby had earned the title of "Case of the Month." Good Luck Toby!
