Four days straight last week. Another four days this week. Exhausting. The first day was the worst for Kuma since she was very heavily sedated (procedure requires full anesthesia each day) and was super groggy the rest of the day. Then at 8pm she has to take tranquilizer pills to pre-load her for the next morning's procedure. So really no chance to get back on solid mental footing. But they tweaked the sedation level and she came out much more alert the following three days. Feels much better to see her being mostly back to her usual self each afternoon. I've also been chatting with a lot of the other random pet parents at the #cancer center. The impromptu commiseration really helps. And always wonderful to meet their #doggos! And of course she's getting lots of treats! https://i.nostr.build/4ec5UFmWhnvqgyvm.jpg Look at how clever this girls is! Holding the plastic peanut butter jar between her forelegs! #dogstr
Ya, but I need Chicago weather to cooperate!! It's turned nearly winter-y again! https://m.primal.net/QHfN.png
