Update on Scout

September 29, 2013 at 2:50 pm by Claudia

Dear friends, thank you so much for your prayers. Between the friends of this blog and my Facebook friends, we had an army of healing prayers sent to Scout, and Don and me, as well.

She came through the surgery beautifully. The mass was removed quite easily and she’s doing very well. The doctor just called us to say we can pick her up in half an hour. Originally, the Vet who is the owner of the practice said it was most likely benign. I think we will trust that it is.

The doctor said she was already feisty. She’s barking at them from inside her cage. A good sign.

Soon she will be home, woozy and wearing a cone. I can’t wait.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for your love and prayers. What would I do without you?

Love,

ClaudiaSignature140X93

    Blessings to you and yours.I feel a connection to Scout as my little dog Indy who is almost 17 had the same geriatric vestibular syndrome as Scout had almost two years ago now.They are our loved babies.

    Dear Claudia and Don, I just walked into the house after leaving Noble in Hartford. I’ve been thinking about you all day so when I got home, I ran to my computer and read the good news! My cat Louis and I are doing the happy dance around the kitchen. Best news I’ve heard in a long time.

    So snuggle in with hubby and sweet scout and let the healing begin!

    Great news about Scout! (Don’t trust your vet’s hunch. Have it analyzed, just to be sure. It’s a great security to KNOW that things will be okay.)

Welcome!

Welcome!

I live in a little cottage in the country with my husband. It's a sweet place, sheltered by old trees and surrounded by gardens. The inside is full of the things we love. I love to write, I love my camera, I love creating, I love gardening. My decorating style is eclectic; full of vintage and a bit of whimsy.

I've worked in the theater for more years than I can count. I'm currently a voice, speech, dialect and text coach freelancing on Broadway, off Broadway, and in regional theater.

Thanks for stopping by.
