Surgery

Raoul ended up having two mass cell tumors removed. One on his front right leg and one on his rear right leg. We won't know if they are malignant until the tests come back in a couple of weeks. I hope to post pictures of him later today. He is not handling it so well and whimpered all night. The poor guy has to wear a cone around his head and that is making it harder for him to get comfortable. Fortunately, he's finally getting some sleep now.

Thanks for all your kind thoughts.

Mast Cell Tumor

I'm headed to Alaska tomorrow and will have surgery on Tuesday for a mass cell tumor on my rear leg. Sadly, on my visit to South Dakota I found out I have a mass cell tumor. Hopefully this will be benign but they can only find out when they do a biopsy during the removal. Please send me good karma so that I won't have cancer.

I'll keep ya posted.

Exhausted but happy boys.

This was the easiest trip back to the states! The flight attendants allowed both Olive and me to hang on the seat outside of our bags! It was great!

Olive and her mom at Frankfurt!

We finally met Olive and her mom! Can you believe we happened to book the same flight back to the states?
