<DIV>I am glad to read the good news about Abraham and Owen. It is so good to
kknow that his CBC was great and nodes are back to normal. It is good to
read that Owen is getting his staples out and doing well. Also great
that your shingles are almost gone. Hope things continue going good for
you and the hounds.</DIV>
