Hi Everyone,
Just a quick note to let you know that Charley came through the surgery
well. We will have the pathology report next week, but the doctor is very
pleased with how everything looks so far. Charley is very tired and a
little dizzy right now and is resting in bed. He (and I) sends his thanks
to all of you for your prayers and wonderful kind thoughts. Either I or he
will keep you updated with his progress tomorrow.
Be well yourselves,
Marlene
MY RESPONSE: Marlene thank you so much...it feels as though we have all been in the waiting room with you all day. I never thought he would be home on the same day.
Charley is one special "big guy" over at City-Data and of course we know all about you so we feel we know you too.
Take care of yourself and from EVERYONE a big HUG for Charley.
Sense of smell day - - - While we were bringing home a mouse for my kids pet snake yesterday, it got out of it's container! We could not get it, so I hope it doesn't die in my car and test my sense of smell! When I get home I am going to try a cheese trail - - - out of my car and onto the ground! Wish me luck!!
OMG - Good luck! Just the mouse alone will stink up your car - it doesn't even have to be dead! They stink, their poop stinks, their pee stinks - find him!!!
