Thank you all for your wonderful comments, they are so appreciated.

JP - you were one of my first encouragers, your comments help me believe in myself. Thanks a million!

Ladies, I'm so glad to share this with you. Connelly is my son, Kevin's dog. He is a wonderfully patient dog and I can see that his breed would make a great guide dog, Christine.

The colouring of the wall, and the lighting were all I had to work with as he was lying on his bed - so lucky for me!

Sorry I'm not around much - still have neck and headache problems.

Kevin is doing quite well and waiting for another scan - will keep you informed.
