Cal at the vet again this morning. She has been making a snorkling sound for sometime now. She is evidently growing some kind of nodules on her lungs. The vet says she has less than a year left.

On an up note, her thyroid condition is under control (thanks to a pill every day) and she is gaining weight. She is happy and crabby as ever (considering her original name was "CrabAss"). She spends most of her time curled up under my feet as I surf the web.
