Captain Redux

The Captain,
our esteemed lead cat, aka doglike cat, aka recently treated with I-131 cat I wrote about awhile ago,
Had to go back to the lovely cat hospital again.
We really do love these people. They treated him very well and were reasonable and Captain warmed up to them in spite of his overall irritation at being out of his home and hyperthyroid/edgy.
When the Doctor said he had not fully responded, I just was sprachlos, couldn't speak. Fred had heard them say 95% respond with one treatment. I never heard the 5 % part.

That denial thing again.

Plus that panic at the bill for a second treatment. Balanced with Captain needing the life saving treatment.
So I believe it is a test of our love.
Today we put him in the carrier which he really hates now and left him off at the vet hospital and he is having tests again and then will be getting another dose of radiation and quarantine.
Captain is a big cat, had a really big thyroid and he is, well, special. Let's hope he does OK.
My lasered gum is healing nicely and I keep reading good things about LANAP in spite of those costs. When will it be available as a do it yourself kit? Or what is next with this laser light therapy? I believe it is like having the sun shine on sheets how fresh they are. Will we wear little light bulbs in our mouths?
The medical aside reminds me that our health issues predominate our lives quickly.
I have been wanting to give you all this website as my favorite human medicine website

Plus he has a spattering of other interesting stuff too.
Have a healthy day!
