All About Lilly


Today was the Day for Lilly Ann. 

She thought we were going bye bye to the park, and I felt dreadful about no food or water. 


However, when we got to the vet's, she got suspicious.  She NEVER does this, (jumps up to sit next to me)  so I know she was scared.  


"They're going to do WHAT???" 


"I don't want to go with Nikki!" 


"Okay, I'll go, but I wanna go home". 


When I went to get her at 5, she did something else she NEVER does, she jumped up and said goodbye to Donna, who has helped take care of her many, many times. 
You can see where the tumor was removed from her eye... we will be putting medicine in it for the next 10 days. 
Donna trimmed her claws back, they were wickedly long and split and she said very, very dry. 
So.... we go every six weeks from now on. 

Lil has to be muzzled to trim them (or sedated). 


While she was gone, my sister in law came over and hung drapery rods for me, God bless her. 
She brought her little Toto with her, and he made himself at home! 

Jester was desperate to play with his little friend, but Toto is not very fast. 



Here's our girl home again, and the new curtains hanging.  I had to put the tiebacks on, 
because Lil likes to watch the street from the spare bedroom.  She is pretty grouchy tonight, and 
went for Jes several times, so I am letting her sleep off her stress.  At least she has a full stomach. 

I don't care for the old white blinds, so am saving to have shades put in.  To me, the house did not feel "finished" these last two years, because of no curtains.  We measured the master bedroom, and I am going to try to find curtains (probably drapes) and rods for it, next.  I have to paint the tv room before we do it. 

I'm so glad today is over, because I was very stressed out about Lilly Ann. 

Thanks for all your kind wishes and comments via Facebook!

Lilly Ann

Well, our girl had a hard day today. 


Here comes our girl with vet tech Nikki down the hall 
at Bethel Animal Hospital a little while ago. 


And here.... sorry for the grossness of it all... is one of the 
tumors that was removed.  It is being sent for culture to a lab, and 
we may possibly have the results by Thursday.  Then again, it may be 
Monday. 
The doctor was honest with me, and said to cross fingers and toes and
pray. 

He removed one under her eye... and left another in the crease of her eyelid, 
it was just too close to the orb. 


She was so glad to get home... have a drink... and have a little food.  She hadn't had anything all day. 


The bad one was taken off her hind leg.  

Folks, let me tell you... good care for your dogs and cats is not cheap... but this is 
our last girl, and we are so very attached to her. 

So... now we wait. 

All your prayers were SO appreciated... I can't tell you how much.
