Good news

Heard from the vet today. Arrow's biopsy came back, and the bump on her neck turns out to be nothing bad, an epidermal inclusion cyst. Dr. S said all the walls came out clean, so it shouldn't recur. Of course, it cost about $300 and four stitches to find out! Arrow's been wearing daddy's old socks on her left hind foot (here she sports a casual tan), to prevent her scratching the stitches off. It's healing up a lot more nicely than the incision from her last surgery.

The day we brought her home from surgery, we found a new bump on her shoulder; go figure! It resembles the one just removed so I suspect it's the same or similar. We'll have it looked at on Monday when her stitches come out. Also, the fine needle aspirate of her foot showed nothing (vet was looking for bone cancer), which means her broken toe is just a broken toe! Another 3 miserable weeks of inactivity before she can be x-rayed again.

In other news, I spent the day serging up standards for the children's ministry's new Narnia set... Sylvia dropped off the last of the fabric a little while ago, so I'll finish up in the morning.
