"Arkhangelskoye had a friend and admirer after my own heart in the person of Serov, the artist who came to paint our portraits in 1904.
He was a delightful man. Of all the artists I have ever met in Russia or elsewhere, my memory of him is the most precious and vivid. His admiration for Arkhangelskoye, which revealed his acute sensibility, was the basis of our friendship. In an interval between sittings, we sometimes went into the park, sat down on a bench under the trees, and had long talks, His advanced ideas influenced the development of my mind considerably. I must add that in his opinion there would have been no cause for a Revolution if all rich people had been like my parents.
Serov bad a great respect for his art and never consented to paint a portrait unless the model interested him. He refused to paint a very fashionable lady of St. Petersburg whose face did not inspire him. However, be finally yielded to the lady's entreaties but, after the last sitting, he added to the portrait an enormous hat, which concealed three-quarters of her face. When the model protested, he replied that the hat was the most interesting part of the portrait.
He was too independent and too disinterested to conceal his feelings. He once told me that when he was painting the Tsar's portrait the Tsarina exasperated him by continual criticisms; so much so that one day, losing all patience, he banded her his palette and brushes and suggested that she should finish the work herself.
This portrait, the best ever painted of Nicholas II, was ripped to pieces during the 1917 Revolution, when a frenzied mob invaded the Winter Palace. An officer, who was a friend of mine, brought me a few shreds of it which I have reverently kept.
Serov was very much pleased with the portrait he painted of me. Diaghilev asked us to allow him to include it in the exhibition of Russian art which he organized in Venice in 1907, but it brought me so much notoriety that my parents were annoyed and requested Diaghilev to withdraw it from the exhibition."

This is the text from the discharge:
Maggie is a 7 year old labrador retriever who was referred for evaluation of lethargy, coughing ,labored breathing due to diffuse invasive nodules throughout all of her lung lobes . She has crackles and abnormal lung sounds on both sides of her chest. We performed a fine needle aspiration of a nodule that was identifiable and localizeable with ultrasound. The tissue samples have been submitted to the laboratory for confirmation of invasive lung cancer. Other considerations include diffuse granulomatous disease (an inflammatory disease that should have shown slowly progressive signs of coughing and laboring to breathe and lymphoma, a cancer that is occasionally nodular. The initial impression from the aspiration sample is that the disease is of a soft tissue cancer that may have spread to the lungs from a bone or abdominal site.
The only therapy available for Maggie would be chemotherapy but it is not the ideal therapy to treat extensive and advanced disease. We would need to perform a staging examination if you were to consider this therapy. This would include abdominal ultrasound and blood work. You may be forced to consider euthanasia if she does not rally and resume eating .
We are sorry for the bad news but there is always a kernel of good news in all bad news. In this case she has not suffered with her disease for many months as so many dogs afflicted with cancer do.
