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 --
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
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 --
In other word - BENIGN !!!!!!!!!

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
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.
That's a bunch of great news! Wow! All good. :)
