Hi all and Merry day after Christmas. Hope everyone is having a good holiday with friends and family. Just wanted to update you all on Mr. Miles. John and I took him to the vet last week and though he's not cured, the appointment went as well as could be expected. Miles is responding to the heart meds and his heart rate has come down to a semi-acceptable level. We were able to begin him on steroids for his wobblers syndrome and he is getting around much better. He's still slow and wobbly when he gets up from laying down and tends to swing his hind legs to the left, but his mobility is MUCH better. With the good news from the docs we left last week for our travels back East with our families. Man, we sure do miss Mr. Miles, but he is in good hands. We have a vet tech checking in on him twice daily, as well as our friend, Gene who's hanging out with him just to make sure he doesn't get lonely.
John made it up to Richmond last night. We're hanging out here through Saturday and then making our way to Wilkes on Sunday. Sorry for the lack of pics, I'll be sure to download some from my camera in time for the next post.
