A very busy weekend & Wylee Update

When last we talked, Wylee had been to the vet on Tuesday with a follow up appt scheduled for Thursday. I never got back on the blog after that with all of the hubbub this weekend. Sorry!

So, Wylee's appointment on Thursday went as well as could be expected. The "mass" looked a lot less inflamed, but was still a little swollen. He saw a different vet than on Tuesday, but apparently the notes she left were very detailed and the nurse guy was the same, which helped. She tried to draw some liquid out of the mass, but didn't get much different than before. When she pulled the needle out of the area though, Wylee's swollen mass area began leaking. They thought it would just stop, but it didn't, so the vet tried to squish all of the liquid out. Wylee wasn't a big fan of that! When it just kept coming out, she asked for a bigger needle and poked him a few more times to help get more out. He really didn't like that. They didn't get it all out, but it slowed enough that they decided to stop.
The slide didn't show any cancerous cells, but there was no indication of what the "mass" actually was either. It think that God is trying to tell me something.
This vet thought that surgery was definitely in order to find out what was causing the issue. She wasn't able to do the surgery, the vet who would do it was not in town that week. They were going to consult with her, make sure she was comfortable doing the surgery, and then they would call us back. That was supposed to be today, but we didn't hear from them. We'll be calling tomorrow.

This weekend's hubbub...
The girls got lots of grandparent time this weekend. Dinner with Pepere and Memere on Friday, Grandma and Grandpa came in on Saturday, with visits from Memaw and Papa, Memere and Pepere, Tiffany, Kevin, Hunter, Mary Alice, Laurie, and Aubrey.
Dedication on Sunday went well. We were worried about Kenedy being nervous about being on stage in front of everyone in that great big church, so we had talked it up all weekend. Who knew it would backfire on us? She did a really good job on stage, but when the dedication was over and it was time to leave the stage, she whined very loudly, "but I want to stay on the stage!" for all to hear. The children's ministry coordinator, went ahead and mentioned the children's Christmas musical was coming up and that we may want to keep that in mind for Kenedy... : ) She is definitely all drama, besides the fact that she sings her way through most of the day, with big showtunes-style endings. I think she'll have quite the time in the musical!
We visited with Janma, Chad and Jamie, went to eat with the family and continued the busy-ness throughout the day.

I'll post pics from the weekend when someone sends them to me, as it is hard to be the one taking pictures when you are on stage.
