Moses is home. Piber and I departed for Boston's Angell Memorial Animal
Hospital at approx. 6AM and there was little traffic and no snow on the
drive there. As usual, the front desk had all of Moses' medicines ready and
the paperwork in order related to his case. A "plug" here for the
Newfoundland Club sling about which "we" spoke a while back: so handy and
efficient is this that, when Moses was admitted, the staff asked me to leave
it with them while Moses was hospitalized. The snow began when we were
about ten miles from home and I simply applied the great degree of caution
that I always do to my driving. Plus, I learned to drive in Detroit, so I
am used to snow, although I am not eager to drive in it.
Moses had the following tests/procedures performed while he was in the
hospital: Emergency exam, General profile, CBC, Platelet Count, urinalysis,
Culture Aerobic and sensitivity, spine lumbar single view, chest right and
left Lat/VD, other bloodwork and fluids, large decubitus pad, and
examination by veterinary neurologist, who came to the hospital specifically
to examine Moses, on a Sunday.
A reminder that Moses has been treated for bone cancer, amputation and
chemotherapy.
