White Dog was in my arms early this morning. "It is that time, Little White Dog of My Heart," I told her. You must spend the day with Dr. Julia and her team having an ultrasound checkup on your pancreatic cyst, having it drained if necessary, getting your blood drawn just for check on your general health, and having a series of relaxing K laser treatments. I always miss you and worry until you come home but there is no reason to fear."

Dr. Julia called late afternoon to let me know Steve could pick up White Dog after 5. "Bloodwork is all good; kidneys, pancreas, all of the enzyme levels good. Liver is a tiny bit high but that is typical for seniors and just at the high normal line; keep up her milk thistle. The ultrasound shower some fluid; I think Rosie said she withdrew 11cc worth which is hardly anything. We want to do one final laser before Steve comes. Also, do a little research on PRP (platelet rich plasma) injections. It is for osteoarthritis and I think Your Girl might benefit. Check it out and then lets talk more about it."

When Steve arrived White Dog was more than ready to head home. "You know I tried to tell them I did not like kibble and would rather part of the chicken salad Jackie was having but...so I am starving. Can we drive through, please?" 

"Don't tell the others," he told her as they turned into Sonic.
