Just as we were sitting down to dinner on New Year's Eve Graham, who was so thrilled that his Poppo and Carol had arrived, was tearing around the house. Our dog was asleep on the floor against her favorite couch. Graham tacked the dog who woke up, had no idea what hit her and promptly bit Graham in the face. Blood and tears and screams. We spent the rest of the evening in the ER at Vassar Bros. Hospital in Poughkeepsie. A plastic surgeon was called to stitch up Graham's face. The cut was small but complicated - the regular ER doctor felt that he could not do the best job and since it was on his face he urged us to get a specialist.
The stitches were removed last Friday and he has a small redish scar near his mouth. I would have posted a picture but Liam has the camera and he's out of town. Graham looks mostly ok and the scar is quite small. One day his beard will cover it up.
