I had my whole message about Peanut written...and then Sox jumped up on my desk...onto my keyboard and canceled the whole thing! I have to call the vet back in 5 minutes so I guess I'll wait now...anyway...I like the vet who is taking care of Peanut now...he seems to be a caring person...and he's nice and explains everything! Some of my family members have used him in the past...and my mom's friend takes her dog and cat there now. I took Peanut in around noon. They were going to lance the abscess. I called and checked on him at 3pm...they said everything went ok and he was resting...I'm going to call back to the office now and talk to the vet...then I'll finish this message. Ok...Peanut is doing fine...they said he was curled up in a little ball...with his "blankie" Ha Ha...He has to stay over night but I can pick him up in the morning. The area is still draining pretty bad..still not sure if they'll put in a drainage tube before he comes come. This has been an expensive week...the first vet was $71.00...my bill from the new vet will be about $200.00...maybe more...they can't give me the total till tomorrow. The main thing is my little Peanut man is going to be ok...and I'm so thankful that Dave has a decent job! Thank you for your prayers and good thoughts. One more thing...could you please pray for my cousins husband...he had surgery on Wed...it doesn't look good...it's a long story but he was in the Gulf War and has had nothing but a lot of medical problems since then. He's 41 years old and needs a heart transplant..(they didn't do the heart transplant on Wed..it was something to do with his stomach) he was on life support and they took him off...now they're putting him back on...the doctor told my cousin it doesn't look good..they have 3 sons...it's so sad...he's a good person. -- Carol Muchacha, Bella Rose, Chibbie, Blue, Cooper, Ruth Anne, Gracie, ChiChi, Granny and Holly Noel
