He's a baby, misses his mom and you. Assuming you have all his meds, I'd completely agree that being home with all the smells and sounds and creatures around him would be great therapy. It would be good for his mental outlook.

It's so often recommended to take human patients home to recuperate once they no longer need intensive medical care that it must be true of animals, especially one with as much personality as Ramsey. I know I'd heal better from anything without constant, busy humanity and lights!! Not to mention not being able to see anything - all of that would be terribly depressing. All of you will be happier once he's home. And your thoughts about the soil - have you talked to your county extension office? Or the people at Cornell? I know they have a fantastic College of Agriculture. An old friend of mine worked there for years before he retired - he worked on some sort of potato field testing that took him to Florida every year. And my Dad went to Cornell for a couple of years in the 30s before he ran out of money.<br /><br />Nancy in IowaMom Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08173057786790186340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1432762024762532275.post-82642891281813914912012-11-15T09:42:49.977-05:002012-11-15T09:42:49.977-05:00Yes!

Being happy is a large part of healing. He's well enough now to be unhappy in the hospital. Time to come home and lay on the couch and watch TV. (Figuratively, unless you have a really big couch.)Sheepmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04305606349971026553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1432762024762532275.post-23611664949639692742012-11-14T19:37:10.923-05:002012-11-14T19:37:10.923-05:00"there's no place like home". You ..."there's no place like home". You will all be more settled when Ramsey comes home. These decisions are like untangling yarn..but once you've freed the knot, everything is clear.

I hope to get to see both of you soon. Take care. <br />Diana RRbreadmakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05743646031735917457noreply@blogger.com
