Big Gord, Rose and Meg
Yesterday I visited Big Gord in Long Term Care at UBC.  He's only there for Convalescence, so the Long Term part is misleading.  He's been battling with a wound that went through to the bone since last December, and has been in the hospital with it since January.  The bone got infected and the wound opened up to fist-size.  Long battle to recovery with surgery in the near future (hopefully) to put a 'patch over the opening.  I took the dogs in, Rose and our new dog, Meg, because for the first time in 6 months, he's in a place where dog's can visit.  They loved visiting Big Gord. Took to his bed like it was their own, snuggling up with him, and then falling asleep.  Born therapy dogs.  Love therapy.
