I honor you this day, and I honor every bit of you that resides in me. I’m grateful for the strong German heritage you’ve provided. I look forward with eager anticipation to the great family reunion on the other side. I offer you my undying love, honor, respect, and gratitude.

With fire around bench and comrades;
However bright it burns, I will banish the blaze,
As soon I sing the magic chant.

Rune Lesson: Jera tells us we’re at a turning point. In any case, we turn it all over to the All Mother. She is the one who balances the scales of any cycle. In her comes improvement as we are actively protected in her.

Update on Toby: His examination; remarks from discharge papers. Toby's incisions appear to be healing well and there are no signs of active inflammation in either eye. His intraocular pressure within the right eye is elevated today, indicating that he has glaucoma. We administed dorzolamide 2%/timolol 0.5% ophthalmic solution to help decrease the pressure in his right eye, which lowered his pressure into a safe range. We believe the pressure should continue to decrease. The remainder of Toby's ophthalmic examination was unremarkable
*I’m glad I took some brown-bag food for me, and treats for Toby

Dillons actually came thru on Toby’s Rx. Walmart was already closed, which ended up being a good thing, because on the Good Rx app, Dillons had the better price anyway.
