Yay, I'm back from my stay in Manchester Eye Hospital! I know some of my flickr buddies have been curious so, in brief, I needed to have drainage reconstruction surgery (a Trabeculectomy) because I have a bad case of Glaucoma. So, I have a new bionic eye but my requests for X Ray vision fell on deaf ears - which is a shame because I was looking forward to that bit!
This photo was never taken with any thought of me on the operating table but when I was going through photos to post I just thought yep, that sums it up! ! It's actually a stone sculpture that lies face up in shallow water at Trentham Gardens.
Anyway, I now have two weeks of doing nothing, another two weeks of doing very little and then two months of taking it easy so my photography is going to be a little curbed, I have a few photos in the pot to be going on with and then I'll see how it goes. I'll be visiting your pages though - no restrctions with that!
He didn't make it to a year. Tragically died after having anesthesia when he was declawed. He suffered. We were devastated, because he was so adorable and sweet. We still remember him.
"Alcohol is the anesthesia by which we endure the operation of life."

Carla underwent cleft lip repair by the interplast Cusco, Peru surgical team last year, and was treated this morning for her cleft palate, which was wide open. It is common for patients to have a cleft lip repaired one year and a cleft palate the following year. By seperating the surgeries, Interplast doctors give the child time to heal and avoid keeping the patient under anesthesia for too long.

Dr. Crawford W. Long, renowned physician, pharmacist and inventor of anesthesia - God bless him - was born in Danielsville on Nobember 1, 1815. He graduated from a local academy at age 14 and attended the University of Georgia (where he shared a room with Alexander H. Stephens) as well as colleges in Kentucky and Pennsylvania before returning to Georgia a skilled surgeon.
Laughing gas parties were quite fashionable at the time and C.W. Long observed that while under the influence of inhaled ether, a person could receive falls or blows and have no pain from these accidents let alone remember them. He became convinced that a person would become insensible to pain if sufficiently etherized.
C.W. Long used ether the first time on March 30, 1842 (beating William T. G. Morton by four years) to remove a tumor from the neck of a Mr. James M. Venable. The entry in Long's account book reads as follows: "James Venable / March 30 - Ether and excising tumor...$2.00."
Long subsequently removed a second tumor from Venable and used ether anesthesia in amputations and childbirth. The results of these trials were not published until 1848 and this is probably why Morton was at first believed to be the inventor of anesthesia. Fact of the matter is, both Morton and Long had the bright idea at approximately the same time.
Long moved to Athens in 1951 where he and his brother operated a drugstore on Broad Street across from the college campus.
Dr. Long died in Athens, GA, on June 16, 1878. A small but very informative anesthesia museum is operated in downtown Jefferson (Jackson County).
We had a hedgehog come in at work to have his toenails trimmed... despite our efforts, it was impossible to treat this guy without lightly anesthetizing him, as each time he'd curl into an unbelievably tight ball of bristly spines. So. Cool.

The Ether Monument, also known as The Good Samaritan, is a statue and fountain near the northwest corner of Boston's Public Garden, near the intersection of Arlington Street and Marlborough Street. It commemorates the use of ether in anesthesia. Its design has been attributed to the Boston architect William Robert Ware and to the sculptor John Quincy Adams Ward. It is 40 feet (12 m) tall and is the oldest monument in the public garden. The statue depicts a medical doctor in medieval Moorish-Spanish robe and turban—representing a Good Samaritan—who holds the drooping body of an almost naked man on his left knee. The doctor holds in his left hand a cloth, suggesting the use of ether that would be developed in centuries to come. The anachronistic use of a Moorish doctor was probably intentional and served to avoid choosing sides in a debate that was raging at the time over who should receive credit for the first use of ether as an anesthetic. A handful of individuals had claimed credit for the discovery of anesthesia, most notably WTG Morton and Charles Thomas Jackson.

This 40-foot-tall monument commemorates not a person, but a medical breakthrough: the use of ether as an anesthetic. The first public demonstration of ether anesthesia was conducted at Massachusetts General Hospital in 1846 by Boston dentist William T.G. Morton and Doctor John Collins Warren. Morton administered the ether, and Warren then removed a tumor from an unconscious patient. Ether had enormous benefits, allowing doctors to work more closely and carefully, and giving patients a respite not only from pain, but also from the anxiety associated with surgery. Atop the monument, two figures sculpted by John Quincy Adams Ward enact a Biblical story about the relief of suffering. The Good Samaritan is shown caring for an injured stranger he met on the road.

A monument commemorating the first use of ether as an anesthetic is located in Boston Public Garden. This historic operation took place at Massachusetts General Hospital in 1846. The ether monument is located in the Public Garden near the gate at Arlington and Marlborough Streets: On the thirteenth of March, 1866, Mr. Thomas Lee, a retired merchant in Boston, sent a communication to the city government, with the following munificent offer: "I propose to erect and present to the city a monument in the form of a fountain, as an expression of gratitude for the relief of human suffering occasioned by the discovery of the anesthetic properties of sulphuric ether." The offer was promptly accepted by the city government, and an order was approved by the Mayor on the twenty-seventh of March, 1866, "That whenever the Memorial Fountain, presented by Thomas Lee, Esq., to the city, shall be completed and erected, the Water Board shall cause the same to be supplied constantly with as much water as may be necessary to give the fountain its proper effect." The monument was completed and surrendered to the city on the twenty-seventh of June, 1868. The monument was designed by Messrs. Ware & Van Brunt. Its form is suggested by medieval types, as modified by the nature of the material (white Concord granite) used in its construction. It is about thirty feet in height, and arises from a square basin. Each vertical face of its base has a niche, containing a spouting lion's head with sculptured aquatic plants. A surbase sustains a die contained in a canopy, supported by eight stunted shafts of red Gloucester granite. Above the canopy are mouldings, and above these a grouped quadripartite shaft of polished red granite. The capital is decorated with oak leaves, and bears on its abacus a group setting forth the story of "the good Samaritan." The four sides of the die contain bas-reliefs: (1) A patient under the influence of ether undergoing a surgical operation, (2) The angel of mercy descending to relieve suffering humanity, (3) A wounded soldier under the hands of surgeons in a field hospital, and (4) An allegory of the triumph of science. The principle inscription is: "In gratitude for the relief of human suffering by the inhaling of ether, a citizen of Boston has erected this monument, A. MDCCCLXVII."

noooot...
Actually Izzy went under and had extensive testing last week. I took this photo when I looked out from the waiting area and saw this dog, and had to rub my eyes...
Izzy's had head imaging, and the veterinarian looked into her nostrils, lungs, esophagi and stomach, took samples for analysis. The results were good in that she had nothing terrible like cancer or tumors or some odd thing stuck somewhere., or bacteria, or parasites... Difficulty is that she has inflammation in all those places, and appears to be environmental immune response. Dr suggested steroids for 3 to 4 weeks. This med can have side effects and can be bad for her heart, which has the mitral valve issue. So, I am trying to consider everything before we decide how to proceed at this point.
Here is a short video I posted this morning, showing Izzy waiting to be picked up for her tests.

This is the Ether Monument (The Good Samaritan) in the Boston Public Garden. It commemorates the first public demonstration of inhalation anesthesia, which took place in Boston in 1846. The sculpture represents the desire to relieve pain when a loved one suffers.
Kenny has teeth problems. :-(
He can not eat! Your teeth hurt! :-(
We're afraid of anesthesia! Kenny is a 17-year-old cat. :-(
Tomorrow we go to the veterinary clinic.
