Well Bridger is 9 and started developing a lump on his rear leg. We took him in for an estimate last week. Preliminary testing and a round of antibiotics didn't do much for the lump, so back to the vet on friday for lump removal surgery as well as teeth cleaning (and you though your dentist was bad). He is healing up well I guess, but already stir crazy. The vet also attended to the pet giraffe Bridger took with him for comfort. We are waiting for test results, but the vet wasn't very pleased with what it looked like, and threatened amputation. Poor bridgey, the vet has already taken a toe from his arm, and now wants a whole leg. Don't worry though buddy, Mom and Dad are going through the same thing metaphorically.In other news the Salt Lake Marathon was this weekend, and another year of gorgeous weather. The marathon route passes by a block from our house, so we attended a party at down the street in our
friends yard. The fence makes it seem like all of the crazies from the neighborhood are locked in for the marathoners to see as they run by. But we all had a good time sharing in the fun and cheering on strangers.

Oh no! Poor Bridger. Maynard had a lump removed last spring... Luckily turn out the be nothing. We hope the same for Bridger. And the hardest Part with Maynard was keeping the bandage on, clean, dry and free from infection. Good luck!
Poor Bridger. Poor John and Janessa. Let's all hope for the best. Grandma Bev and Grandpa Eldon are surely thinking about all of you.
When will you know about the biopsy results for Bridger?
