One month from today hopefully he'll be off all meds.

He's doing great with all this but it is a lot of being held down and having things done to him. He's so patient. Thank God it isn't his sister who is rather high-strung.

I hope this takes care of it for good. I haven't gotten to ask the vet questions yet so I'm not sure if he will have this through his life or if this long round of antibiotics kills it. We go in next week for a check-up so I can ask then.

I'm now budgeting for vet bills...
I am very glad to hear that Charlie is doing well with the antibiotics and I hope his weekly checkup goes well; can’t blame you any bill is terrible but vet bills are the worst because it’s not like they make good pet insurance. I hope you are doing alright too.
