    First shift back on regular city patrol after the festival.... it's the "kitten". I am so exhausted, lol, but it's only the first of 6 straight nights.
    Heck! @sufferlandrian how did you manage to go for so long before you had coffee? I grew up in a Euro household where even us little kids had cafe latte before we trooped off to school.
    Even a large mug of dark roast isn't cutting it tonight though.

    I hate doing transfusions. Cross matching is a pain. I'll wait for a PCV to get to 15 before I do one.

    Got another Laryngeal paralysis dog in. He seems to be responding to meds. Maybe we can get a couple more months out of this old boy.

    Why do the dogs get that condition, @sufferlandrian?
  • sufferlandrian

    Most of the time it's genetic. Sometimes nueropathies, cancer or chronic inflammation can cause it but usually we never find a specific problem.

    The good news? Just hired another vet. The bad news? She won't be available until May. At least that gives me a date to shoot for.

    May? Yikes! But at least there is light at the end of the tunnel, even if the tunnel is long!

    In other news, I'm switching grad school programs and now will be pursuing a seminary degree. I'm still sorting out the details. Eek!

    Quite the amazing ink there, @Doesntplaynice82. Great lion! Welcome. Glad it's a Q night for you too. Thunder & lightning here seems to be keeping the troublemakers holed up.
    @sarah30isael, CNA's are very important! I used to work in Health Care (physio) before I got into Security/Policing.
