The World According to Bella

The Good and the Bad

Well maybe Dr. Steve was happy to get his picture taken but not me. I was poked multiple times and it really hurt. Guess they couldn't find a vein to draw blood. Then Dr. Steve came  at me with another VERY, VERY long needle. He needed to get a sample for a test. Bad news for me. I have another tumor on my leg. If you recall I was a terrible patient after surgery a few years back. I went crazy

having my leg bandaged up. I kept chewing my bandages off and kept Mr. C very busy  figuring out how to keep it on. At one point he even tried duck tape. Now that was itchy! In the end I even did them all a favor. I chewed my stitches off so didn't need another doctor visit. 

I studied my report carefully and was a bit happy to read since the tumor is benign they recommended just watching it to see if gets bigger. So no surgery for now. But I must be getting old as there was a long list of things getting bad for me like my eyes, arthritis and teeth.
I will say the highlight of my visit was stepping on their new in-floor scale. 

It showed me to be at my ideal weight 77 pounds 1 pound down from last year. Mrs. S was shocked! 

A visit from Mrs. S friends from the cities did cheer me up. They came with lots of food which meant more crumbs for me and

 DEB-she remembered me with a bone. 

I didn't waste a moment settling in for a good long chew. Didn't care what Dr. Steve wrote about some of my teeth chipped and wearing down from all my bone chewing. I was happy.  Now who doesn't love a good bone to chew on!

Love, Bella
