sorry, Lynne, i must have not done something right! it comes up on my screen ok, but perhaps i am the only one who can see it. will see if i can figure it out and make it better.

Jacinda had another checkup yesterday--she is off the antibiotic, and her prednisone has been cut back to once a day, every other day. her temp continues normal, and her anemia has reversed itself. her tissues are healthy and pink, with not a trace of jaundice left. She is up to 4.6 lb!! the doctor has given her a clean bill of health!

Jasper has been given a clean bill of health, too, and he is becoming a gorgeous young man--very short, fine black fur and copper eyes. he talks and talks: i know there's an Oriental climbing around in his family tree.

i will have a small ceremony soon for baby Olmos. i wish he could have joined us in this healthfest. one tiny life can impact another life so profoundly, even when our paths cross ever so briefly.
