For those of you who asked . . . the infection in the retina of my left eye was worse than expected. I have had no improvement in vision, after two and a half months. I doubt there will be, although my doctors won't say that explicitly. I have had laser treatment on my right eye, and it's doing well (except I need a new prescription). I have been getting great treatment; what happened was an accident, of course.
For those of you who asked . . . the new puppy's name is Digger.
Until next time, be well.

The New Alpha Dog
We finally got our puppy. We got her at the Clinica Amigos Fieles on Juan Montalvo in Cuenca. Her mother was brought to the clinic -- where they take in stray dogs and cats -- pregnant. Our puppy was one of a litter of six. On the right, you see her out in La Paz, fighting with the grass. Her motto is "If it moves, I'll kill it." She's also a digger. Here she is in the sand pile.
And here's a picture of her face.
She and our cat are still working it out.
We haven't settled on a name yet -- there are several options on the table. But we're happy to have her; we missed having a dog.
Until next time, be well.
