Rob did his well-remembered 'blood letting' so his urologist/surgeon can check his blood counts and levels, and we won't get the results until next week sometime. We meet with his regular doctor (Dr. L) next week, too, and Rob's surgeon wants us to make sure that Dr. L knows about the headaches that won't seem to leave for more than a day or two, and the extreme tiredness.
One of the concerns we had was sort-of put to rest... at least we don't believe it's anything to worry about right now... so we won't.
We're still on for the CT scan of his pelvic and abdominal regions in about a month and a half, and will see his surgeon again the following week for those results, and possibly also be following up with the oncologist.
As for the billing issue, it may, just may, be taken care of by tomorrow. I did have to call again, and after being transferred around, was finally able to speak with his onoclogist, who also called me back later to say she was going to handle this personally, which means a lot to us. She is a great doctor, and has a wonderful spirit about her. It's just the staff that is sorely lacking in organization and such. I truly am thankful for her.
I had to call the vet early today about Darby, who took a slight downward turn again this morning. But she's back on another round of antibiotics, and we've moved her onto a high-quality prescription dogfood made specifically for acute and chronic gastrointestinal disorders. They say things are passing through her too quickly, and hopefully this food and the antibiotics will help. The liver meds could take several months to work, but I was assured that the liver IS able to regenerate itself. I am praying it does.

It was a good day, and we are hoping for more.
Thank you for praying us through this day. ♥
I'll update as I find out more, most likely in a week or so.
Have a blessed rest-of-the-week, and enjoy the treasures in each day.
If you don't see any, make some.
In Love and In Peace,
Cheri ♥
