Thanks guys. We need a heart icon. That means a lot. He's got an 8am appointment Thursday for an ex-ray. If the lump does need removing, his toe will have to go because there's not enough skin around it to seal it up. I've ordered a bite not collar from Jeffers which should be here in 2-3 days. I don't want that cone thing stressing him out even more. I'm hoping if they do need to do surgery, I can drop him off Saturday morning after work. I won't have to be back to work until Tuesday night.
