Bye, Bye Staples


Tomorrow, we return to the V-E-T. And, as much as Miss Heather dislikes going, we can't really call them evil anymore since they did us such a favor by removing the one true evil that endangered my baby's life: the big C. Heather has bounced back from surgery and she is as full of energy as ever. People still gawk at her when they see her but that doesn't stop her from showing them some serious Scottie love! Some ask me if she got beaten up. To me, she is just as beautiful for it is her strength, courage and love of life that makes her glow the way she does.

Her wounds are healing nicely and she's back to eating dry food (much to her dismay, I can assure you!). The staples and stitches will come out tomorrow and we'll get to have a more in-depth conversation with the V-E-T about Heather's overall health. I'm hoping for a good report. This Scottie Mom has had enough bad news for one year. Wish my little lady luck tomorrow and hope the staples removal is 100 percent ouchless! We'll let you know how it goes.

  1. Wishing H the best. When I saw the title, I thought you were never going to buy office supplies again. When I had my big snip ten years ago, I didn't have to return because the stitches dissolved. I guess the new vet doesn't have the kids on a fully funded college plan. Bad news-who needs it. I just heard that Barney crossed with lymphoma. He was the smartest thing in DC.
