Sometimes things don't go as planned. Sometimes we get past troublesome situations that find a way to come back around and clobber us again. Hopefully we are wiser and stronger from having faced this foe the first time. Sometimes we aren't so sure.
We spent half of 2012 on a quest for the best veterinary care for Phoebe as we sought answers to her skin condition that was finally diagnosed as demodex. In February of this year, we celebrated the confirmation of her remission after months of an intensive treatment protocol. Today we scratched our heads and gave many heavy sighs as she was diagnosed with a recurrence. Razor blade scrapes were made on her thin, sensitive skin. Blood was taken for clues. Many kisses were given. Now we wait until Tuesday to find out where her thyroid and liver stand so that we can chart the course from there.
Sometimes things don't go as planned. Yes. But I am so very grateful for the love and support around Phoebe and our family as we figure this out.

Jul, please give our Phoebe girl a kiss from her Noni, OK?
You and she have my prayers.
Sending love...I'm so sad to read she is going through this again. But glad to see her faithful friend by her side. Puppy love!
