Here are two entries from January 2009:

Missy's Biopsy
Dr. Liebetrau informed me this morning that Missy Marie's growth that was surgically removed last month was malignant. That is the bad news. The good news is that she may not have another occurrence, He said that if she does, it will typically form at the same area. Hers was a Type 2 level of cancer, 1 being the least worrisome, to 4 which is the worse.
Right now she is fine and the fact that she will be 13 next June, the odds are good that the old girl has a lot of gas left in the tank.
Missy didn't make it 13. She passed away from a recurrence of breast cancer the following March.
January 14
Tough Tough Tough Weather Week In BFE
Pray for us in BFE. It snowed overnight and the best (or worse) is heading this way. Cold temperatures that this area has not seen since 1996 is coming tonight and tomorrow. But before that the winds will create drifting today. Horrible driving conditions exist as most area schools are closed. If I had time off I'd bag it but if I don't show up I don't get paid, and "Papa needs new shoes."
What is good in my world? The truck started today, and I got it out of the garage, and Missy is well. And I'm sure there are other pluses but too busy wallowing in my miseries. I'm heading into work an hour earlier, and hoping I get home tonight. Rest up and face tomorrows challenges. Everything seems to be uphill these days...
This was before I discovered the bland heart-numbing weather of Florida. My kingdom for a shack up North.
