The operation was a success (torn ligament for those who were unaware). Apparently they had to use some artificial shit to replace the damaged ligaments, or so I'm told. He has some kind of medicine on the back of his neck that humans aren't allowed to touch (toxic).
Doc's orders:
no walks for 6 weeks
no running, no serious activity (I guess he won't be humping his pillow for a while)
The bandages come off in 2 weeks, then the stitches sometime after that, I dunno. I'm just glad that he's ok, although he's in a lot of pain.
you can see a small part of the stitching above his bandages
