Update on me: After a couple rough days I spent the day in the ER today. They got my pain under control and I'm back on the road to healing. I got a little news about the pathology report, although not the "official" report from the head surgeon. I'll get that in about 10 days during a phone call appointment. Then he will tell me what the ongoing treatment will be for sure, but sounds like two years of a chemo that doesn't have the harsh effects like losing hair, weight, appetite, etc. So that's good news, but would have loved to lose some weight!!!
After not hardly eating at all for 2 weeks in the hospital I gained 20 LBS!!!
How does that happen? Now I have about 50 to lose again!!!
Ah...this too shall pass.
Have had some bad luck with coons this week. Lost around 10 chicks and one hen that was sitting on eggs. I thought my coop was very secure ( had no issues last year) but the darn coons pulled my 6/7 week olds right threw the hardware cloth. Got my broody hen and most of her eggs last night right out of the garage.
Been setting traps but all we caught was a cat. Had to move all the birds to cages high off the ground. Spent a great deal of money yesterday on building materials to build yet another coop that will hopefully be a lot more predator proof. And going to try and reinforce the one I have. Any ideas?? I just don't want to lose anymore of my babies.
I just have no words. I cannot believe they got through the hardware cloth. That's a bit terrifying. That's what we all depend on. I'll be interested to know what you come up with.
