Mum's had the all-clear.
Okay, it's only the all-clear for now, because we know cancer is sneaky. But they're happy they cut out what was there, and she's going to have radiotherapy, not chemo. Slightly less good news re Otis (my rat) who is in the vets for the weekend. But it has to be the best place for him. So scared he'll die away from Duncan and me, because of what happened to Diz. But that's no excuse to refuse treatment.

Great news about your mum, Sundae xxx
As you say, Otis is in the best place for his care. You've made the right decision for him. Fingers' crossed on that front. Sent by thought transference

Great news Sundae. Getting the tumor out is the big thing now; radiotherapy will mop up the sneaky stuff. And, glad Otis is getting the care he needs, as Limey says. It takes courage on your part but you're doing the right thing.

Thank you.
After the year went all pear-shaped on us, we just spent the day watching movies. She enjoyed it, that's all that mattered.

I'm acting as power of attorney for my elderly cousin. He was an out of state landlord for a house up in Wayne County PA. (His childhood home.) As his dementia got worse, he did less and less to ensure he had good tenants and he did less and less to maintain the property.
The last tenant lived there with his father, who was a good tenant, but the father died, and the son stayed on as a terrible tenant. Stopped paying rent and had a bunch of dogs who neighbors said never went outside. The animal excrement everywhere ruined all the floors and the house got a severe flea infestation. My elderly cousin, at my urging, evicted this tenant after 9 months of unpaid rent. I've never set foot in the house, but I've spoken to no less than four different people who said you have the urge to vomit as soon as you cross the threshold. It smells that bad. Anyway, once I was given power of attorney two months ago, my first goal was to sell this vacant property. And I have in front of me the draft of the closing papers! The place has a tax assessment of $80K and I accepted an offer for only $35.5K. Sounds bad, but my real estate agent tells me we were lucky to get over $30k for it. The buyer is a small time builder who winters in Florida. He's going to gut the place and open the windows all winter to let it air out. Then renovate it next summer when he comes back to NEPA. So I'm very happy that I don't have an abandoned slum property in PA to worry about over the winter when there is no heat to keep the water pipes from freezing. Hope I'm not jinxing it by talking about it before the papers are signed. |
