Sunshine, cold (1F when this photo was taken), warm fire…
3:30 p.m.
Sun on an almost Winter afternoon: low southern arc.
Smoke from a woodstove fire.
Dear boys.
Lights on the little tree. (Auggie’s enthusiasm for the Christmas décor has waned. I decided to try the lights…I snuck them on and so far, so good!)
Another warm and happy night at home.
It was a year ago, yesterday, that Bear had his first TPLO surgery.
The sunroom was the recuperative suite.
And dear Bear recuperated…
…with the help and companionship of “Nurse” Bob.
Mr. Bob… I miss you every day, I dream of you often. I’m so happy you were part of my life and I think I can speak for Bear and say that he is happy that you were there for him post-op for both of his TPLO surgeries!
A year from TPLO1 and 9 months from TPLO2 – the Bear-boy is doing wonderfully. All muscle has been regained, he moves with a normal gait and appears to have no soreness. A perfect outcome.
