OFF TOPIC!! new pink cast

[Guest guest]

hi everyone, and happy Easter and happy Passover.

went for more xrays and all is looking good. i got a less restrictive cast and

the middle and ring finger are taped together, so still not able to type with

the right hand. the 2 fractures are stable and the pinky is free and feels

normal. supposed to flex into a fist 10x per hour. stiffness already is

diminished. next md visit is in 2 weeks. this time i got a pretty pink cast ;-)

my customer liked the poem i wrote, so here it is...she plans to read it at her

wedding in oct.

My Kitties Taught Me How To Love

by Strecker

4/3/12

My kitties were my teachers

and they taught me many things--

like when to clean the litter box

and how to play with strings.

They taught me to be careful

not to step upon their tails,

and that sometimes the furniture

got shredded by their nails.

Maggie taught me about nap time.

Moxie taught me about play;

and that I should make time for BOTH

every single day.

Gentle Maggie taught me patience

and to praise her just because

she adds beauty to our lives

as she walks on velvet paws.

From Moxie I learned to speak up.

Her voice is rather loud.

She follows us just like a dog

and entertains the crowd.

You wouldn't think it possible

but while the cats slept gently

they taught me how they listen

for their dinner most intently.

I also learned that it's no fun

to stay angry or to fret.

For kitties don't hold grudges

after going to the vet.

So if we ever argue

or have a little spat

we'll get over it quickly

as taught by our two cats.

But most of all our cats taught me

that they don't need a reason

to love us every single day

regardless of the season.

So if you find me patient,

caring, loving, fun, or sweet--

You have the cats to thank for that.

Don't you think that's neat?

, you are my one true love...

except you'll have to share

the part of me that loves the cats

who hog your easy chair.

thanks for your prayers and good wishes.

love,

and Steve [the 'right hand man']
