So much has gone on with Rosie

Hi everyone...so much has happened with poor Rosie. Took her to the Massachusetts Vet. Refferal hospital. An amazing place. They felt she had the auto immune disease but an MRI and blood work (that had to be medi-vac'd to San Diego) had to be done. Because she could not open her jaw they thought they would have to do a trach. A tech spent a ton of time and got a soft tube down her throat so no trach. YEAH. Blood work finally came back an it confirmed it is an auto immune disease. Not much known about this disease in dogs so for now she is on prednisone and the specialists will be meeting again to discuss the next step.

On another note, for those of you who live in MA we have an election coming up on Jan. 19th to fill Senator Ted Kennedy's vacant seat. I am an undecided voter in regards to party but I feel compelled to take a stance here. Scott Brown is clearly the far better choice and the Martha Coakley camp knows it. All they have done is bash Scott Brown and not talked about her actual credentials. Scott talks about his all the time and his record speaks for itself. I received three mailing from Martha today and according to one she will save the world if elected. Obama is coming to MA on Sunday to show his support (jury still out if that is a good thing) so you know the Democrats are running scared. Obama is worried about his healthcare reform not going through nothing more, nothing less. Here's a newsflash...it may not go through with or without her election. Mr. Obama this election is not about just your healthcare reform it is about the state of MA. Thanks for letting the MA voters know exactly how you feel about them. Oh by the way, I feel the same way about you. Why don't you go and take another vacation. PS I am officially becoming a Republican. Thank you Ms. Coakley.
