Snow, Arthritis, Teeth, Eyeball


Thats some title huh? well lets discuss the four topics,,,

#1. SNOW
Yes we live in Florida, but you wouldn't know it. It has been dropping into the 20's for a overnight low for the past week, not cold by a lot of others standards, but for Florida it was cold. Early this morning when I went out to get the paper, it was snowing, kind of. It was more like frozen pellets. But try to tell it to the people down here. It was on the news, and the news stations were having people send them pictures of all the snow. Pretty funny.

2. Arthritis



Last night Jester started acting strange. He wouldn't lay down, he would just stand there looking at you. I took him out to see if that was the problem, but nope. He looked like I would if I had the flu. GREAT! Our last dog got sick and died in three days, so I didn't want that to happen to Jester.
So this morning I took him to Audrey's vet, and they looked him over.



Temperature was normal, heart and lungs sounded good, he weighed 71 pounds, but, upon examining him it turned out he has arthritis in his back, and upon closer examination,

#3 Teeth he has a bad tooth that is infected.
So he has some arthritis meds, and some anti-inflammatory meds for his tooth. This coming Wednesday he will go in to have his teeth cleaned and the bad tooth pulled.
#4. Eyeball OK time for me to have eye surgery #7 this Thursday. This should be the last one, because it has been determined that the eye will never work above it's 5% that it does now. The retina is damaged, lots of scar tissue, and the optic nerve in the left eye is damaged. So this next procedure will be to protect the cornea that is weak from all the surgeries I have had.

So I will check in later probably next weekend to let you know how every thing turned out.
