I'm so sorry about Ro's eye, and wish I were in the position to help fiscally. Things have been tight for several years now, but this has been a year of one disaster after another. We've had very good luck with Broadway Animal Hospital. Dr. Mueller, whose practice it is, is not a people person, but her rapport and concern for animals is extraordinary. Several years ago, she saved the life of one of our kitties for a small fraction of what we would have payed anywhere else, and she has since shown over and over again that she values the health and safety of the animals over other considerations.

Thank you, and many sympathies. I hope everyone is OK.

Thanks. We're healthy, now that the winter illnesses are past. It's only been car troubles, water heater dying the death, more car troubles, an unexpected bill that I'm not sure I even owed from the water company (and which I wound up paying because the water company cuts your water off when you try to negotiate), and all the other miscellanea that come with living on a very, very tight budget.

So very sorry your dog hurt himself. Certainly you don't want to wait around, but as a veterinarian, I will say that there are lots of things it could be that hopefully won't end up with him losing the eye.

Just sent money for the Epona books and the Hound and the Falcon series. Rounded up...

Delighted to do so, by the way - my copies of the Hound and the Falcon are falling apart from being read so many times. :)

Just ordered the Hound and Falcon series which I have in paper but it is always convenient to carry them with me. I rounded up. Let us know how things go because I can just make a donation as well.

I can't make it to one of the in-person courses like Viable Paradise (or Camp Lippizan), abut I need fresh eyes on this ms. Writing mentorship it is. (And happy to help.)

Is there a time limit on when the mentoring/editing services have to be used after purchase? I've been trying to work up the courage to do something with a few ideas I have lying around, but we've been dealing with our own dog's illness for several months now so creativity has been limited and I haven't yet put anything into a critiqueable format.

No time limit. Especially for you, I'd be happy to bank hours for a while. :)
