I was finally able to discover the lab results at my appointment this morning. The nurse was very pleasant, gave me all the time I needed to explain, and showed me the latest letter from the hospital. It says I had a mucinous tumour, which was borderline, and with some abnormal cells in the...

Tiffy's eye examination went well today. Her corneal ulcer has healed, but there is slight blood vessel scarring. We will use anti-inflammatory medication, the Interferon in Tears to try and reduce the corneal scarring. The responsive of the corneal scarring can be unpredictable. This treatment may...

So, for all you folks who were purring for me to get the computer teaching job for the summer, not only did I get it, but--a month after being told I wasn't accepted to university this fall--the English Department got magic money and now I /am/ going to university this fall, /on full scholarship/. ...

My cousin David (yup a Dave in the truest sense of the word) sent me these after I told him I was inheriting my daughter's blondeness. Don't ask me about the senior photos, I'm praying there are no retakes. I hadn't heard them before and am still giggling over some of them. Pam S. a born again...

Jean has had the surgery (no details about how many bypasses there were). She's doing well and is currently in Intensive Care for the initial 24 hour recovery period, but they are hoping to transfer her back to the normal coronary care ward later this afternoon. I'll keep posting news as I get...

I bought a lovely white pair of new running shoes and wore them for the first time yesterday. After watching a bit of TV last night I was going to put the garbage out and found a surprise when I was putting on my shoes......kitty throwup! No place else, just inside of one of my NEW shoes. I...

a brand new box. It's my absolute favorite type of box, too, just the right size to crawl into. It has little round holes in the side, jut right to look out through and reach out and touch someone as they walk by - hee hee. Anyway, after Paw put it down, as I was investigating the prize ole Spot...

The last few days have been rough for little baby Ranger. Sunday morning she was climbing the bedroom curtains when an earthquake rumbled through and almost knocked her off the curtains. Just a few minutes ago Ranger was sleeping on the back of the couch when a 5.3 quake hit Yucaipa, about 8-10...

This comes from someone on the other Cats board I go to. She's young, & has a LOT of vet bills, so her mom is making these kitty beds for her to sell. She doesn't have them made ahead. I guess she makes them on order. I just wanted yoou to see one. Aren't they cute?...

Without time to go deeply into details or even an outline, I ask for good thought-energy and purrs sent this way for me and my owners to be able to get a good home together in the near future. Help, help, HELP!?! I know things can go in any direction but with you all pulling & purring for us,...

Well, even though at this point I do NOT want to keep this stray kitty, (yeah yeah yeah I hear you snickering) one thing I will have to do eventually is introduce Kitty to Imp and Mischief. I thought I would try a little tonight. This proved to be interesting. When I first owned Imp and brought...

I bet lots of people have got mugs with cats on - mogular mugs! We found a great one a while ago. I just put a picture of it on Cat's blog http://mogular.blogspot.com. The thing is, it even looks like Cat! I am not sure what Cat thinks of it though! Mognusticat...

I found out that my aunt has a friend who has drastically reduced her fibro symptoms by practicing yoga. I don't know much beyond that, but I thought you might find it interesting. If you're interested, I may be able to find out more. (I'm pretty sure this is right; it's possible there's some...

She has that lip EG thing again. Sigh. I was hoping that episode over the winter was just a fluke; if it happens twice, I'm betting it will keep happening. Poor kitty. Although, truth be told, she doesn't seem to notice it. It sure doesn't look very nice. -- monique, who spoils Oscar...

Folks, please could my friend Paddy have some major purrs? Paddy is a wonderful friend, who is my University lecturer from when I was doing my bachelors degree 15 years ago. He has been a mentor, a dear friend, and has supported me through thick and thin as only close friends can do. Last night,...

This afternoon, the Mighty Huntress was in fien form. In the space of half-an-hour, she brought me two voles and a shrew. One vole & the shrew were alive & uninjured, so after a spell in the rescue box to recover from shock, they were set loose in the long grass on the banks of the stream. The dead...

We're finally back home. Got home yesterday afternoon, it was a really great trip. We were able to get close to the price we wanted at the leather factory, so in August we should be receiving a new couch and loveseat. Dennis and the lady were joking that it was my birthday present, hee hee! Hua...

I believe I mentioned that my momis continuing on chemo for the breast cancer she had removed last year. She goes in every week for monoclonal antibodies, and every three weeks for chemo. Last week she went into the hospital for a same-day procedure, implanting a catheter to make the chemo easier....
