THERE GOES INDIA
After much debate I took Scurvy to the mean 24 hour vet and learned that his urinary tract is partially blocked (probably from the magnesium-laden Panda liquorice he likes) and they will have to insert a catheter (ouch!) and keep him overnight, to the tune of $450 to $600 -- the price of the mammogram I need but cannot afford. The price of the urine-proof Herman Miller Aeron desk chair I have wanted forever but cannot have. The price of a month with Pattabhi Jois.
Doing the right thing sucks.

Hey,
ReplyDeleteYou can get a mammogram AND a complete physical, blood work-up, and more at Cardiomed in Arlington Heights . I went there a couple years ago (when I turned 40) and it was really easy. Let me know if you want to go and I'll meet you there. It's time for another one for me.
Poor not so old kitty Scurvy. Funny he has developed that 'old man stank' at such a young cat age... My advice is to leave that overpriced/overtaxed Chicago and come out to where the real, and healthy people & animals live, in the SuperBoonies baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
