Okay, this scared the crap out of me, but to fast forward to end of the story, Cosworth is fine...
Back to beginning: As apart of the Christmas weekend I went down to my parents' new condo for a night. The condo is one of those new urban-chic things built in an old converted warehouse. It's still under construction and my parents are one of the few people living there, in fact they have their floor to themselves. The third floor to be exact.
I brought my parents' a Chirstmas reef and we were looking for a place to hang it when the phone rang. I answered the phone while my parents decided to take the reef out to the rooftop deck. Cosworth followed them out there.
The roof is flat and the deck is only a small part of it and not near the edges. While I was one the phone with my sister my parents started yelling something about Cosworth. My first thought was that somebody opened a door and that he ran into or out of something or was scaring somebody or something. But as they ran by the yelled that Cosworth had jumped off the roof...
OMG.
I ran after them down the stairs, down the hall, and out the door. Cosworth was standing bleeding from somewhere around his mouth or nose. He was a bit stunned, but was walking okay. All the legs were working. I took him inside and looking for the blood. It was just from his chin and stopped quickly. I was feeling and poking around and not a wimper or sign of discomfort or anything tender or broken. He's heart rate wasn't even elevated. Really he did seem particularly upset at all.
Several days later... He looks little funny with his chin skinned up, but he's been running, jumping, eating, and pooping just like a Boxer should. He was fine with the nephews as well.
I think I had a heart attack though...
