Marty’s eyelids were partially sewn together. He had a small opening at the side of his eye next to his nose. He could see through this small aperture. Now that the sutures have been removed, he’s probably more than happy that he can open his eye.
May 22, 2018. Twister’s stitches and cone were removed. During this time Twister had to take medications. One was a pill that he just didn’t like. Maybe it had a bitter taste. Anyway, he just didn’t want to take it even if we inserted the pill in a weiner or coated it with butter. But, my husband was smart. Fortunately, my husband knew dogs liked peanut butter. He knew about this from seeing a dog show where an object containing peanut butter entertained the dog while the owners were away. So, he lightly coated the pill with peanut butter and handed it to Twister who devoured the pill as though it was a dog treat..
Did you know that dogs like peanut butter? For sure, I didn’t know!
May 14, 2018. Twister’ s oncologist and surgeon called to tell us that the results of the biopsy had come in and that they showed no cancer, only fibrous tissue. . When my husband and I heard that they had not found any cancer, we were so relieved.
Twister finished taking his medication and antibiotics yesterday. He is in good spirits, The incision is healing properly, and the swelling on his leg is decreasing. He will wear his plastic cone for another week, then the oncologist will remove the stitches and give him another examination. As a precaution, the doctors will perform an ultrasound in about a month to make sure the tumor has no changes.We can only hope that everything will be fine. And again we ask all the animal lovers to pray for his complete recovery, and that he won’t need any further treatments.
The day Twister had his CT scan and biopsy, I pulled out the prayer book that my sister had given me so that I could pray to the Lord to help me recover from fibromyalgia. Inside the prayer book is a long ribbon, a relic from a saint, SAN Charbel. The evening before Twister had his surgery, I massaged Twister with the sacred ribbon. I remember looking at my husband’s face when I was doing this. He must’ve thought I was crazy but I did it anyway.
Also, there is a comment in the prayer book that says, “Every eighth day of the month at noon at the parish of Nuestra Senora de Libano a mass and a procession are celebrated for parishioners, dead or alive, and for anybody who needs the Saints help.” Since Twister’s surgery took place on May 8, I strongly believe San Charbel, prayers from animal lovers, and ours, played an important role in Twister’s recovery.Thank you for your prayers on behalf of us and Twister.
