Mrs Robin that's been politely knocking on our door every morning, finally have up and built her best right outside the door. Being close to me will keep her as safe from the robust community of hawks as she can get!

We have barn swallows that nest under our carport off the back door

Thanks everyone. We are playing phone tag with the doctors now. About ready to go red headed postal on Verizon. Phone isn't ringing in but we are getting voice mails from them asking us to call them. We call, they aren't answering the pages.

Robins are amazingly crazy little birds.

We have field sparrows that build nests in my gourd birdhouses every year. I spend much of the summer stuffing babies back into the nests. Can't convince them that the boxes are sized for Jenny Wrens and not their fat back sides.

Finally made contact with her new gastroenterology doctor. She's going to have a CT to try to figure out what is going on in her intestines where they are seeing lesions. One of two possibilities, infection with abscess or cancer. They just don't know at this point and while her lymph nodes are reactive, it could be indicating an infection. They are trying to get the CT set up now to see if they can do it today.

I told them they had to get her eating as she was slowly starving to death. That was the line in the sand.

Well, no news is good news. Talked to the gastroenterologist and while they still don't know what is wrong, they are slowly closing in on what is wrong by eliminating what isn't wrong.

Anybody who has been through 'rule out' medical testing knows what I'm talking about.

She is scheduled for a CT of her bowels in the morning and they will be able to zero in on the lesions in her guts so we will know then.

I believe in the power of prayer not ashamed to ask tor prayers for Sidney. She's a good girl. When I first saw her as a 3 month old puppy. The Amish kid I was dealing with said to me 'she's the mean one' I lifted this pup up and gazed into her eyes. No I told him. She's not mean, she's an angel and a good dog.

Not a mean bone in her body. She adores my husband and she's my angel.

Rooting for full recovery for your angel.

Has anyone used that 'get go gone' test for colorectal cancer?
