TAN #197: We CAN be polite, TANk u very much! (Page 60)

May as well ask if the sun rises in the east!  

Good morning TAN.

MORE sad puppy news.  Our girl looked like she was doing well post surgery then suddenly got lethargic and didn't eat Friday night. 

I finally went to go check on her closely around 11pm Friday night and saw that one of her eyes turned milky white.  Almost thought to take her to the vet ER but waited to 7am to take her in (which didn't make a difference).

She got acute glaucoma that developed over the day.  Pressure in her left eye was 50 when is should be less than 20.  It was starting to stretch and tear.

ANYWAY, got glaucoma and an ulcer and she complete lost site in her eye.  We even thought we may have to get the eye surgically removed.  She has had a long week.  We got her people glaucoma medicine and it got the pressures down so she can keep her eye but needs glaucoma eye drops the rest of her life.  There is the remotest chance if the ulcer heals and the pressures go down, she could get some vision back, but not holding our breath.  It's still milky white after several days.

Cheri,

It's cold and rainy today, but the weekend was warm and sunny.  TONS of people at the MGM pool yesterday.

There were tears this weekend.  I she is just a critter I know, but we love her.  When talking about taking out eyes or going blind or even putting them down plus 6k worth of surgeries...  Then  we kept second guessing ourselves that we should have known.  We refinanced the house Friday night and it took about an hour and the wife was upset that if we didn't do that, we might have noticed the problem earlier.  The doctor was nice and assured us that unless we were specifically looking for it, we couldn't have know.

Dogs can't express their discomfort sometimes.  They can't just tell you our cry.  They go away and curl up in a ball and just lay their quiet.  Which could be just confused for sleep.

Jim this is awful!  Sorry :-(

Yeah, no kidding.  This is not good news.  Sending out some positive vibes and good thoughts out to you.

Hi TAN!

I got my shiny US driver's license today after acing both my car and motorcycle tests.  They ring a little bell when you get 100% on the tests.   

Yay for bike shopping!! 

Aww - Jim I'm so sorry to hear about this.    I'll be hoping for the best for your little pup.

I'll sell you mine.  Good deal too...

I'm looking at the new Ninja 1000...  so purdy!

Are you going to buy new or used?

That's a lot of bike - but cool.

I'm not a fan of the Ninja neon green.  But on that bike, it's limited use is really nice.  I like it.  Of course you could get the blacked out version.

looking at certified used...new cars are a waste.

audis are pretty sexxxy.

I'm a fan of Audi - they make some sexxxy looking machines! 

There was the BEST series on the speed network (I think it was there).  Hour long "documentaries" of all the sport bike builders.  So they did honda, kawasaki, yamaha, ducati, agusta...  etc...   The entire history of the companies and bikes.  It was surprising how many motorcycle companies started from some guy who manufactured something completely unrelated (like airplane engines for WWII planes). 

I think the MV Agusta moved way up on my faves after that series.  I will do a google search and try to find the name of the series if you want to netflix it.
