Good morning everyone. I need your prayers as I go to the doctor this morning. Hopefully I can get rid of the catheter and try to get back to normal. I wish everyone a blessed day. Be sure to give the fur babies a hug for me and be sure to tell someone you love them.

The catheter came out and three hours later went back in. The prostate is so swollen it just won't let the urinary tack do its job. Surgery is August 25th with four to six weeks recovery time. I was able to come home and mow the lawn while the catheter was out.

So sorry to hear this Richard, If I wasn't so far West I would come take care of your yard. I'll be keeping you in my prayers.

Ditto.

Yes, prayers for healing, Richard. Maybe there will be a cancellation and you can move the surgery up. In the meantime, we're thinking of you and praying you continue to feel well.

I think this is the first time since I have been reading this thread that there hasn't been a post in 3 days. I hope everyone is doing OK.

Richard, I hope you are feeling better and that your surgery goes well. I know it's a couple of weeks off but I am hoping they can do something for your discomfort.

I have to go to Camping World today to pickup my motorhome. My dinette windows leaks if we have a steady rain. I had taken it to Camping World twice before to fix the leak. The last time was back in February. All the times I have had it out since then, it hadn't rained during our trips until recently. I thought the leak was fixed as we took a 2 night weekend trip a couple of weeks ago. The first night we had a heavy rain and no leak! The second night, it rained again and I thought that the leak was fixed. When we got up the next morning to leave, I had a slow drip coming down the inside of the window. I took it to camping world last week and they said they can't find the leak so it has been sitting there a week for nothing. There is a local RV tech in my area and I am going to see if he can find the leak. What's aggravating is it doesn't always leak and when it does it seems to be leak hours after the rain has stopped. I am sure I will eventually figure it out.

Over the last month I have taken all 4 dogs to get their yearly vaccinations and their tick and heart worm medications for the next year. Cost me almost $2000 for the 4 dogs. Expensive but worth every penny.

My vet called me yesterday and said we had won some type of wifi dog camera. We are trying a new heart worm medication and they had some type of promotion where you could win this camera. I believe you put treats in it and you can watch your dogs on the camera while you remotely dispense the treats. My old Jack Russell will probably destroy the thing once she figures out treats are inside.

I hope everyone has a great day and a great weekend!
