I heard from Cinnamon's vet today, and the results from the biopsy were good - clean margins, and no uncontrolled cell-division, which is a new test. This means that the tumor that was removed shouldn't recur, and she doesn't need chemo. We just watch for any new tumors, but there's no particular worry about them. Her incision is healing nicely and she seems comfortable, so we're pretty happy with the results and optimistic about the future.

Old Fella had a another good night. When we got up this morning he was ready to go outside and start the day. Of course Suzie was up at six thirty ready to start the day, but with a little talking to she laid down at the foot of the bed until we were ready to get up.

This morning as I was eating breakfast the hot food hit a tooth that sent notice something was brewing. Now it's the weekend and the dentist is off until Monday so I will have to stick it out until then. Hopefully it will be kind enough to not act up any further until I can get to see him.

Sue has a lot of things on her list for me to do today so I had better get started. Talk with you later.

Thanks for the good wishes. Cinnamon continues to do well. Our challenge now is keeping her relatively quiet for about 3-5 more days till the sutures have established a real strong hold. One of my 15.5 yo twin boys has named her 5" surgical scar. It is now officially known as 'Jim'. I should add he's also named a hole in the wall in his bedroom, it is known as 'Bill'.
Yes, he's a bit unusual and I love him all the more for it!
