O Day

Today is Oncology Day for Mycah.
Thinking she was about to be fed, she led the way down the stairs this morning and waited near her dinner plate, only to realize that what actually awaited her was the pet carrier.
She was not amused.
She handled the drive to the NCSU CVM rather well, despite it being a longer trip than she’s been on since I got her. She handled the wait in the clinic well, despite the presence of half a dozen large dogs in the waiting area.
The initial screening and exam, usually handled by a vet student, was done by a vet on exchange from France. Mycah behaved well, but then, someone this good looking (no lie) poking and prodding me would likely have me behaving pretty well, too.
The oncologist was called in for a brief consultation about what would happen to Mycah today. X-rays, ultrasounds, blood tests, and so on. I told them they could shave her and dye her green if that would help, but we’re probably still too far out from St. Patrick’s Day for that.
I’ll be picking her up this afternoon, but the test results probably won’t be in for a couple days. Until then, pins and needles.
