I was able to get both of the appts I need for less than two weeks. My gastroenterologist is sending me to an endocrinologist and a pancreatic specialist. I went to him to ask if I might SOD, Sphincter of Oddi Dysfunction. He agreed that it may be. I am so excited and hopeful.
Hayden was introduced to a professtional photographer. He went on a photo shoot with him today. He really wants to mentor Hayden and show him everything he will need to know. How to capture the shot, how to set the lightening, etc. Hayden is thrilled (so am I). He is still waiting to hear from Harris Teeter for a paying job.
Jana now has only one more week of classes before summer break begins. That just blows my mind. She has nearly everything situated for next year. I still can't get over her living in the dorms. But she was able to chose the dorm that is slightly larger and has its own bathrm, inclding a tub. She also put in an application with her former employer the, movieplex. She is asking to be a projectionist. They told her that happen to have a position open and that because she used to work there, things looked positive. She's still going to keep her job at Harris Teeter. She wants as much money as she can get (without going mad trying to get it) because she will have to get student loans to pay for the dorm and a car.
John is getting a roof this year. ... I really don't know how to write more about that. It is an amazingly positive thing for him.
On the less than positive side of life...
Our baby kitty (4yo), Tessa, somehow hurt one of her toes. She tried to make it better by fashioning her best furr bandage. But the miracle powers of the furr band-aide eluded her this time. When it began to smell she went to her doctor. There they debrided the wound of infectious matter and necrotic tissue. She doesn't have a nail there. As best as the doctor could dicern, she must've caught it on something spliting it all the way into and beyond the nail bed. They gave her two-week shot of anitbiotic and several syringes of pain meds that we administer as needed. Ms. Tessa is doing fine. She isn't all that found of convalescing for entire week in my room but she hasn't been that put-off. She hasn't been that adverse to using it, jumping on and off the bed, jumping onto my dresser to get a better look at Boo Boo the guinea pig, and walking all over the room. But then she will sit with with it held up off the ground as if to say, "Miff, my paaaw. It hurts."
