We met with Dr. Humphries who asked two of his WOC nurses to look at me. The one with the most experience and Dr. Humphries believe that the stoma issue is due to a torn nerve below the stoma. That is why it is so sensitive to the touch. The remedy may be an out-patient injection of steroids, but we won't know 100% until we meet with Dr. Lucas on May 31st.
I am making dozens of my new Bone-A-Fido cookies for the Adopt-A-Thon and getting all the exhibit booth stuff cleaned and organized. We have all the new brochures and banners, etc. for UnChain Buncombe and look forward to meeting hundreds (I hope so) folks this weekend at Pet Harmony. We are also signing up for many, many events this summer to get the word out! Sensibilities Spa has given me a free $80 one-hour massage gift certificate to raffle off and we have other retailers and companies lined up to help us! Amazing support from this community. We are so very lucky.
Yesterday Tiffany came over and brought Mystic who is now 9 months old. Reese began to "nurture him" (we guess!) by licking his ear over and over again. So long as Tiffany was ok with it, we let him do it. It was the funniest thing to watch!
Gil and Joe's truck comes today with their furniture!! The house looks great, never been lived in with shiny hardwoods and beautiful views, plus they got such a great deal. So happy for them and for us having them as neighbors.
Weather could not be better -- high 70s! Hope thing are going well where you are!
