Is it just me or are the years flying by? It reminds me of when I'm driving down the road and I realize I have no recollection of my drive so far. Distracted. Some people feel the need to come up with a word to define their years - maybe my word for 2019 would be Distracted.
Blossom had an appointment with Dr. Hay on Saturday. She's had a cycle of the top of her nose bleeding & scabbing for at least 4 months. I drug my feet on taking her to the Vet. #1: I couldn't find time between all of my parents activities & #2: I just knew that Dr Hay was going to throw out the "C" word. Turns out, he didn't think it was "C" at all. He said it was probably "D"....Dermatitis. She is on antibiotics to see if it helps.
Dr. Hay was very encouraged by how well Blossom is doing this far in to a Degenerative Myelopathy diagnosis. He even gave us some hope that maybe she has Polyneuropathy which could stabilize. That being said, Scott and I have since noticed that her weakness has started to progress over the past few days. We are thankful that, so far, it is still confined to her back left leg and she is able to get around very well.
Saturday afternoon, I took Mom to CVS to buy a Birthday card for Scott and.....some reading glasses. Ever since she had cataract surgery she no longer needs to wear glasses full time.
Inflatable Snoopy makes me happy. Every night when I drive up the driveway and see Snoopy standing on the front porch, I smile.
See ya next year.
