My pleasure, my friend. Sorry for not having communicated before. I have had a bitch (tad) of a hard time lately. My B&W tuxedo (Olivia, sweet but shy healthy 10 yr old cat) went missing on August 31st. It wasn't until the following Tuesday, despite doing everything I could possibly do...that I learned of her HBC (hit by car) on a State Road just up the street. Details later, as she was microchipped... The good news is that a lovely man from the DPWexhumed her and delivered so I could bury her in my frienship garden, allowing me some closure of sorts.

And, then, not unexpectedly, my brother-in-law slipped away on Fri AM. A blessing in disguise, as he had been suffering from this disease for decades, in fact. A hoarder as well. The family did Everything imaginable to feed him, even delivering fab homemade food from Belmont to Cambridge in snowstorms...incl. the godawful winter of 2014/15. They tried to steer him to get psychiatry help, all for naught.

So, I have had a rough week. And have been under lotza stress prior. Thanks for your concern and message.

TTFN, Deirdre
