i hate this freaking thing! so do not expect very long or frequent posts, thx curt, i would appreciate it if you can come and look at the computer,,,i think the problem is with the moniter.

the only really important thing i wanted to share with you is wilma is not well.
when christine, michelle and i went in to put them to bed, wilma was having trouble getting up. when we looked closer, it looked like she had a puncture wound on her swollen back leg but i could not even fathom, one of the dogs in there biting her.

when we soaked it and looked closer, it is actually a growth, and it looks like it is growing from inside out...ie..i think she has a tumour on the bone of her leg that has grown outwards to the surface.

just in case it is a cellulitis unrelated to the growth i can see..i have started her on antibiotics, given her a large dose of tramadol for pain and will get her into the vet tomorrow for an xray and a real diagnosis,,not just my best guess.

anyway..fingers crossed that i am wrong and this is something easy to fix.

love you wilma.

i will check on her frequently tonight.
