I think Garry may be dying...

He is looking so much better. Enjoy your cucumber Garry. You deserve it!
 
I am soooooo proud of Garry. After he came home from the vets with Debbie on Wednesday, he was a little bit grumpy (not surprising, considering he had a huge open wound on the side of his head!) but since then he's really picked up! His wound is healing nicely and he is eating really well. He is currently eating some porridge that I've just made him, he's had a pick at some Science Recovery and he's been chomping on some carrot sticks. He's even got better at taking the Zithromax and now doesn't need to have any until Sunday. Mind you, although it's great at sorting out abscesses it really is horrible sticky stuff...minging!:))
 
I couldn't believe the size of the wound when all that dead tissue came away, but it was lovely to see all the pink healthy tissue underneath. I'm so glad it's healing well and that Garry is doing so well. He really is a little star!

On the subject of Zithromax, I must go and give Hannah hers. She won't be happy with you for reminding me! :))
 
Glad to hear Garry is on the mend. What a worrying time. Come on little man. Get all better for your mummy.
 
Hi Emma,

I've just spent the last 3 hours reading through this whole thread (yes really!) and I just wanna say well done to you as well as Garry. I know its hard on him physically but its hard on you mentally but you're both coping so well.

I'm glad to hear he is well on the mend and look forward to seeing more videos of the cheeky chappy munching away on his favourite nibbles.

How's Minty coping with all of this? I bet he's just taking it in his stride. I don't know if anyone has asked before but are G&M related or just really good friends?

Healthy thoughts to the little fighter to keep gaining strength AND weight.

Donna. x

Minty is fine...he's just wondering why he keeps getting stuck in the green box and taken to places! Minty and Garry are P@H pigs and may or may not be from the same litter. They have the same eye circles though, but Garry is smooth and Minty is an Aby, so who knows? They were in the rehoming section having been returned to P@H after about three weeks...kids got bored...same old story!rolleyes
 
Just popping in to check if theres any further news about Garry?

Hope he's continuing to gain strength and his appetite. x
 
He is going back to see Simon today as his front teeth have got a little long again. Also, he needs to have his bum checked as it was very sore. Still looks painful, but seems to be improving. If it's not one thing, it's another with Garry. He's been up eating his porridge this morning though - he still has his appetite!:))
 
So glad to hear my special little man is still eating well! He's really stolen my heart! I must come and visit him soon. Well obviously to visit you, Andrew, Minty, Dave and Ben too! :))

Hope all goes well with Simon tonight. Let me know how you get on.

He is still eating well. Maintaining his weight. Simon is pleased with him and how well he is doing. He has said that because Garry has an upset stomach at the moment then we should be OK to stop antibiotics now and work on making that bit better. I'm wondering what else he'll find to go wrong!rolleyes
 
Glad Garry's feeling better after his visit to Simon and that he gets his bot sorted too, bless him! (that's Garry not Simon btw!) :(|)
 
Garry is a true fighter. I'm so glad this little coy is continuting to improve. Way to go Garry!
 
I am glad that Garry is better, but he is certainly doing his best to keep uncle Simon busy! :))

I'm glad he's doing so well. Bet he's happy there's no
