poor mister, he has a skin affliction around his groin and i was oblivious til today. we walk around like in a dream and all the while he's suffering sweetly and silently. well tomorrow i'm going to try to get a picture and send it to cousin shari. i don't really trust the local vet. they just throw antibiotics at every ailment. i feel foolhardy, ignorant, and negligent. i feel i've been dreaming at mister's expense.
