Okay, Chief, that explains a lot about your take-charge writing style
and expression of ideas.... Every now and then a situation will start
to develop at the training center, and I'll use parade ground voice to
give a general direction to freeze or "hold your dogs".... maybe once
every couple of years.... and the boss laughs and makes a comment about
"the colonel" (Lieutenent Colonel / Commander).

LOL! Yup. Different branch though so differences can get pretty wild. We
meet minds easily. ;-)

Well Jo, She's taken it like a trooper.

They also removed the growth and are sending it for study. It was
isolated and came out really easy. The nurse said that normally is a good
news but we'll await the results to be sure.

Results came back. Mixed bag, but hope is not lost. The growth was
cancerous but they think they may have gotten it all. They also pulled
samples of the fiberous spots she has about the belly but they all test
negative which is good as they aren't operable.

Thats what they saw on the non-invasive scans. The 6 biopsies done were
covered under her plan (grin). She'll get non-invasive scans every 6 months
now as part of her checkups.

Better than all bad!

Yup! The link isnt perfect but it's the best that matches. It's same
fiberous 'stuff' but these aren't external skin dangles (that they can snip
off with no problem presumably). Either way, clean biopsies on all of them.
Vet said there were many possible causes including possible earlier injuries
or infections long healed?

Meantime, she's miffed at me. I cleaned her ears again gosh darn it! ;-)
