hi peeps

update , i have spoke to berti the ohter day and the oparation hasn't worked , the have said to him it's your choice if the foot/leg stays on/off

they said thats all that they can do , i did mension acupuncher to him that might be the way to go worth a try anyway

basically he is in loads of pain with it ..... if he keeps the foot on he has to put up with the pain everyday and form a scale form 1-10 it's 10+

it's down to him now

berti if your reading this keep it on try everything and anything

keep the hope up

marco

Not a decision i ever want to make but i wish you the best with recovery whatever you decide. I can't offer any advice unfortunately. Keep your paws up dude fight it all the way.

Really hope it works out in a positive way for you. If you want to bounce off someone un-connected feel free to P.M.

Thanks.Stephen
