it seems some fur got sewn in the seam. i don't think it looks much different than yesterday, but the light is different, and light makes a difference. i wrote to shari with a picture of today.

i don't know if there is a difference, but i thought i might take pictures each day. god knows what is going on inside, but he had a more formed poop this a.m. and he got up when renate came in the from outside, wagging. he's more alert, hungry and playful, bright-eyed. i reached a nadir yesterday i think, the storm, then the freeze, the guttural anxiety. today i feel more affirmative, though pensive and still. his mom is coming to visit him, and i'm glad he's on the mend.
