Why???

Well, for starters, I got a new guide dog puppy. His name is Todd, he’s a black labrador retriever. I am starting out the puppy raising for a friend in Chico.

We still haven’t heard anything about the insurance…I’m really nervous and starting to have doubts about whether this is the right thing to do or not.

I know it’s a matter of life and death, but I just don’t see how important that is right now…

I’m slowly losing my motivation for school, among other things.

My grandma had to put Cassie to sleep yesterday. She had cancer all over and there was nothing the vet could do to help her. She will be missed and never forgotten.

Meet Todd…

Hey All,

Meet Todd! He is a male black labrador, I’ll be raising him as a starter puppy for a friend in Chico. She took Columbo for a couple months. We plan to switch back about Christmas time. Todd is a Righetti X Carmen puppy. He is very stocky and has big brown eyes. So far, he’s pretty calm…but I’m not going to push my luck. I was told there are 5 males, and I know that Tudor, and Tom are two of his brothers. Let me know if you know of any of the others!

Health…And A Puppy.

We went to Stanford on October 10th. Not much is new…they finally sent the insurance letter and we should know in about a week whether the insurance will approve it, or if we’ll be fighting them for awhile. Which would stink because then it would take longer! Oh, and insurances are really starting to bug me!

I was on HealthNet, but they denied me even going to Stanford in the first place, so now I’m on Healthy Families…cross your fingers that they accept it! I had to try the liquid diet and puree diet for one day each, and that wasn’t so bad. I think if I make myself think it’s going to be worse than it actually is…it makes it easier! heh…

Keep me in your thoughts and prayers. I go back to Stanford on November 21st. Surgery isn’t scheduled yet, should be in December or January. I am fourth on the waiting list!

I’m getting a new guide dog puppy on the 25th! It’s just a starter puppy for my friend Kay, who’s a leader in Chico. She’s going to take Columbo for a couple months while I start her puppy, then we’ll switch back. I’m excited to have a new baby! Even if it is only for a little while…
