It's my first time back at the forum in a few weeks. Amandasmom- I'm so glad to hear your mom has a new furbaby. Nothing like watching and taking care of new pup to take up all of your time - she won't have much time to feel lonely. I know it's hard for her, and all of you. It always takes time. I h...

I'm so glad you fulfilled his final wish and everyone was laughing. I'm sure everyone enjoyed all of the stories. Sending best wishes and lots of love to you, your family, and especially your mom.

Here's his obituary. I received this today from Betsy (Amandasmom): Dr. C.B. (Bud) Hyatt, a retired veterinarian, formerly of Elkins Park, PA. Survived by Corinne, his wife of 62 years, seven great children and their spouses; Debbie, Jim (Kathy), Betsy (Scott), Patty (Joe), Doug (Marcelle), Meg (Joh...

Unfortunately, so many of us are now on Facebook. I check in here every now and then, and have posted when I needed help - it's wonderful to know you're still here and I do appreciate that more than you can know. You provide a great service here Traci, please keep it up and don't despair that we are...

Amandasmom - can't you just see him at The Bridge surrounded by furry love! I didn't know him that well, but I can't imagine anything more wonderful. Yes, he is definitely their friend.

I haven't posted for a while, but I'm here with some very sad news. AmandasMom sent me a PM today to let me know her Dad, davet, passed away this morning. According to her message, he broke his hip a couple of weeks ago and it was just too hard on him and he passed in his sleep early this morning. I...

I apologize for not posting earlier. I posted on Face Book and just realized I never entered anything here. Foxy's surgery found nothing at all. What remained of her cevix was removed. No mass. That's the good news. The surgeon thinks she might have the equivalent of a varicose vein the her vagina t...

Sorry I'm late letting you know - I brought her home Thursday evening and so far she is doing well. Moving a bit slowly, but I don't blame her! Her incision looks wonderful - it's not even pink. She appears to be healing without any issues. No issues with urination or defecation. They gave me severa...

By the way is there a difference in PCV (packed cell volume) and hematocrit? I thought they were the same thing, but a coworker of mine thinks there is a difference - either in what they are exactly, or in they way they are calculated. In human medicine, the hematocrit is often calculated, which is ...

Very good, but confusing, news. No mass. The surgeon says she looked for and felt for one, and even cut into the cervix looking for it, but nothing. She's unsure what was showing on the ultrasound (they found the same thing there that the original vet found). She says it could have been a 'shadow'. ...
