Sydney Sweeney, who? Check out my grandmom Dorothy (Dr. Chip’s mom, I call her “Granny”), on her 99th birthday yesterday. She has 6 children and 9 grandchildren along with a bunch of great grandkids. The second photo shows my dad’s oldest brother and youngest sister, my Uncle Ned and Aunt Karil. My grandfather was a pediatrician who did house calls, and Granny went back to school to be a nurse once her kids were older. She was able to reverse Type 2 diabetes with diet changes. One of those, my dad got her to start drinking kefir daily years ago. But perhaps her best practice: she never refuses the chance to take an afternoon nap, and the older I get, the more I’m with her on the value of rest. Here’s to 100 next year!
It’s not Afghanistan or Iraq. It’s not explosions or gunfire. What keeps Lynn up at night? A 5-ounce chick named Rosie who is the runt of the new chick squad but makes her mighty presence known with loud chirping whenever she poops. A word to new or potential chick owners: find a place outside in the garage or barn for their brooder instead of keeping them inside. They’re louder than you’d think! Anyone else have tricks for creative spots to keep a brooder that are safe and warm?
Raise your hand if you’re the farm husband of a “low maintenance” woman who has a to-do list for you longer than Santa’s. 👋 We thank you for your service. Now get back to work on that fence.
I woke up Sunday to find that my trusty stead of 32 (almost 33) years, Sassy, had a swollen cheek with a rather hard lump. Our vet, Dr Julia Simonson, came to examine her and I thought it would be interesting for folks to hear it “right from the horse’s mouth.” Examining a horse’s mouth without sedation can be tricky but thankfully Sassy is rather tame because I harassed her so much as a kid. 🤣 We saw what appears to be an ulcer or abscess likely from some kind of cut or foreign object. No signs of infection and it is slowly healing itself. I really appreciate having a veterinarian who supports the “monitor and support nutritionally” approach, and does not intervene pharmaceutically unless she believes it’s truly medically necessary. It’s very difficult to find a vet (or a human doctor frankly) these days with this mindset.
