Pancake's doing better today although she is still scratching her bee stings frequently and is moving a tad slow. The vet (Banfield) gave her two medications - Simplicef (an antibiotic) and Temiral-P (an antihistamine + Prednisone). She's going back Friday. No signs of any life at this pond today. Ongoing heavy construction, earthmoving & drilling on all 4 sides.
Thank you, Jefferson County Kentucky for protecting the well-being and health of your current living beings inhabiting this area. I'm sure the medical facilities and funeral directors in the area will thank you in the near future.

This year’s theme is “Never Again: Heeding the Warning Signs.”

I have suffered from Crohn's Disease since I was 10 years old. I have been poked and prodded more times than I care to count and in places I don't even want to mention..............
I fight it on a daily basis and even with massive amounts of medications along with trying all known treatments under the sun (within reason), it still has complete control over every single aspect of my life.
Crohn's Disease is an incurable intestinal disease and has varying degrees of severity....no two people have the exact same symptoms nor "triggers" that set off full-blown attacks. (I was lucky enough to get the most severe "variety"....yay me) They say that the two highest contributing factors are ethnic background and a stressful childhood.
It is an extremely painful disease and even when not in full-blown form, there are never days of actually feeling "great". Getting out of bed every morning is a major struggle and having to push yourself to do even the most simple everday things is extremely difficult.
Will-power, heightened public awareness of the disease and it's difficulties along with newer & better medications have helped over the years but I still live for the day when a cure is found or at least I can control the pain instead of it controlling me.
Had a fabulous tour this morning of this garden located atop the newest student apartment residence at UC Berkeley, "Garden Village". Just been open a couple of months. Professional gardener maintains it, and produce is sold to local restaurants and public, as well as residents of building. Inspiring.
Nice article recently about it in the Chronicle:
