Buzzupdate

I am knocking on wood loudly enough that I bet you can hear me...............

We are one year past Buzz's diagnosis with (probably) chronic leukemia (or maybe lymphoma).

He feels great. I think the enalapril is really helping him feel 100%.

He acts just as I would expect him to act at 10.5 years old. He never had as much energy as my two girls had, so I don't expect him to be as energetic at 10.5 as they were. But for him, at this age, he's about exactly as I would expect (with no disease).

He had his vincristine (iv chemo) on the 13th, and for the first time, he had no apparent reaction. I did give him metoclopramide, as always, but he didn't go off his feed *at all*, which is a first in all these months (and months) of treatment.

I'll take it. (massive understatement)

Here he is, this morning, in the back yard, watching me take pics of our maple bud.





Isn't he cute?

Oh bother -- what is that black thing on his schnoz? Get it off so I don't have to 'shop it out ... oh yuck, it's a mosquito!!!!!





And now for a completely different topic -- All Those Pixels Really Do Matter.

Whoa.

I've been using the little camera pretty much exclusively, because it's ... little. This is the camera I bought before the Alaska trip. Not *that* much bigger, but with twice the zoom and a lot more pixels.

Self portrait, in my dog's eye............

Cropped out of the above. Still with this level of quality. !!!!
