Lizzy at the San Antonio Vet

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

This morning Lizzy had an vet appointment with a vet in San Antonio.  Her normal vet said that her parathyroid was enlarged and she needed to see a specialist.  Deborah recommended a guy in San Antonio.  So we made an appointment for this morning.  Rachel and Evan left with Lizzy before 8am.  Noah stayed home with me.

The vet said that at least one of Lizzy's four parathyroid glands was enlarged and not working properly.  The ultrasound was not able to accurately show a second parathyroid so when the doctor gets in there to remove the first, he may have to remove a second.  He said he believes that Lizzy has had this problem for two years based on some of the numbers that our vet sent over.  Taking care of this now should allow Lizzy to start feeling better and live longer.  Her surgery is scheduled for August 12 and she'll have to stay there for a couple days.

At home, Noah and I ran some errands at lunch.  I picked up Wendy's for me and Subway for him on the way home.

I had a meeting at 3:30, so I left the house right before Rachel and Evan got home.  Then Rachel had to leave quickly after to take Lizzy to the regular vet to get a booster to a vaccine she got in June.  She dropped Evan off with Darius because they were invited to a birthday party.  Darius' mom drove them.

The party that Evan went to was at a place called Stunt Ranch.  They teach movie stunts there.  The boys did an obstacle course, went on a zip line and performed a stunt.  They had to run away from a car that "exploded" as they were running away.  Evan had a really good time.  Darius' mom dropped him at home afterwards.

The boys are getting ready for bed.

Until next time...
