<div><font><font face="verdana,sans-serif">Tonight I was getting ready to catheterize Nigel before bed. As I got the skin away from the tip of his weenie (a medical term) I noticed a round, light tan.....object....very small, on the bright pink ...uh....weenie. So very delicately I removed it. And saw two more. Uhnnn......this can't be good.</font></font></div>
<div><font><font face="verdana,sans-serif">I thought about it and thought maybe he has stones, bladder stones, and these have gotten trapped somehow under the skin rather than being extruded or whatever. Since he drags his weenie around....I mean it made sense to me at the moment. And so I had John bring me a clean jarwith some alcohol in it (rubbing, not drinking) and I put my three very very very tiny little round <em>objects</em> in it and put it where I would find it in the morning to take it to Doc.</font></font></div>
<div><font><font face="verdana,sans-serif">Then I tucked everyone in and went about dismantling the Nigel-covers on my bed (tarps covered with blankets and sheepskin) and in the process, out bounced another little roundy tan thing!</font></font></div>
<div><font><font face="verdana,sans-serif">This made me a bit suspicious.</font></font></div><div><font><font face="verdana,sans-serif">I took the little tan round thing to my husband, who, when I had tried earlier to get him to look at the little round tan things off of Nigel's weenie had moaned like a little kid and run away waving his hands and kind of gakking.</font></font></div>
<div><font><font face="verdana,sans-serif">This one I took to his bedroom and said what does this look like to you? (Because I had no idea, frankly.)</font></font></div><div><font><font face="verdana,sans-serif">Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. He says. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Looks like.............the stuffing to my lappad....</font></font></div>
<div><font><font face="verdana,sans-serif">???</font></font></div><div><font><font face="verdana,sans-serif">Raising my eyebrows slightly I inquired as to whether the lapboardpadthing had been out there, in my room, on the bed. Yes, it had. When he was watching Nigel the other day. </font></font></div>
<div><font><font face="verdana,sans-serif">I came back out armed with a flashlight and sure enough, there were little tan roundy things stuck in the treads of the stairs that Nigel "uses" (with a lot of towel help) to get onto the bed and sure enough, his weenie often ends up out of it's nice warm furry coat and looking around, because the towel pulls this skin back. And it is nice and ... moist. And it picked up the little plastic beads. Poor Nigel!!! The boy with beads on his weenie!!!!</font></font></div>
<div><font><font face="verdana,sans-serif">(You would think such a discerning dog would have chosen at least something a bit more colorful)</font></font></div><div><font><font face="verdana,sans-serif"></font></font> </div>
<div><font><font face="verdana,sans-serif">This did, however, have the effect of giving me a minor heart attack. I have mostly recovered even without wine. I threw out the samples I had to take to show Doc. </font></font></div>
<div><font><font face="verdana,sans-serif">I never would have lived it down.</font></font></div><div><font><font face="verdana,sans-serif">And thank heavens Nigel is all cleaned off now. Poor baby.</font></font></div><div>
<font><font face="verdana,sans-serif"><br>MomPerson to Nigel, the boy with the beaded weenie, Llewis (who for once doesn't want to join in) Conley (who is jealous) and Cooper, who slept through it.</font></font></div>
