A WEEK OF GREAT NEWS!

Yesss, this is an older pic of Shiloh 

 n'Shasta BUT they are laying  

TOGETHER on the same dog bed so 

I guess that is part of the great 

news too!  Anyway, my weekend 

got off to a great start when the vet

called me this morning with the 

results of Shiloh's path report --

Fibromatous Epulis 

In other word  - BENIGN !!!!!!!!!

It is quite common in dogs.  The vet 

said NO FURTHER TREATMENT is 

needed.  All I have to do is keep 

current on his dental cleanings so if 

it does come back then the vet will 

just cut it out again.   This is the 
 
BEST NEWS EVER  for Shiloh and 

me.

Now, going back thru this week, 

looking at Tuesday, 8/11 next.  Had

a doctor appt. with my cornea 

specialist.  No, my visual acuity is 

still not that great HOWEVER the   

overall condition of my eye is stable,

so much so that my specialist 

decided that I could go a MONTH

before I have another appt. with 

him. And I can also wait 2 weeks 

before I see my local eye doc -

typically it was just 1 week before

I would see my local eye doc and 

after my cornea transplant, I was 

having so many problams I was 

seeing my specialist 2 or 3 times a 

week.  There was one week I saw 

my local eye doc then a retina 

specialist the next MORNING and 

my cornea specialist that 

AFTERNOON - it all came out ok.

OK- now for what I consider the 

ABSOLUTE GREATEST NEWS 

I could have gotten, especially since

there is no cure for this eye 

condition and it is not known when 

or even if my vision will occur -

 

I AM OFFICIALLY RETIRED 

from my job

I received the letter on Monday, 

8/10.  I still have a couple of things

to clear out at work but after this 

next week, that ought to be it!

Ok, gotta go for now - been working

on this post for a bit and I also 

have  a couple of errands to take 

care of - gotta get more of that

Freshpet Dog Food 

I give a little of that to both dogs

but  Shiloh still gets more of it than 

Shasta - just don't tell her that.  

Ok - outta here for now.
