Thanks



Thanks, originally uploaded by tifotter.

Kozmo thanked me for scratching all his head feathers tonight. He sits on my lap each evening and we scratch and fluff his head, cheeks, chin and neck. It seems to perk him up and I’ll bet it feels great. Now that his legs don’t work, he can’t do it himself. So I’m his scratch helper.

He is doing okay after his second biopsy. The wound was much bigger and will take longer to heal. But it’s healing. The results of his biopsy aren’t back yet. We know he has a huge mass, so I’m not quite sure if the results will matter at all. The vets didn’t sound very confident about being able to remove the mass. If they’re not confident, I’m not all that confident in letting them even try to remove it. Kozmo seems pain-free and happy-go-lucky, so that’s good enough for now.

When we get the biopsy results we’ll post another update.

Quacks,

Tiff

It’s for a Good Koz

Hey Kozmo! Look! You got some more mail!
mail

“Yay! Bring it to me?”
yay
Of course buddy. Let me open it first.

Awwww… Kozmo. It’s you!
note
This is so sweet.

“Does it look like me? Let me see it.”
kozzy

It sure does, buddy.
comparison

“Wow, you’re right. It’s a very handsome drawing.”
handsome
Well you’re a handsome guy, Koz.

They also sent you a gift.
muffins
Wow! Homemade vegan muffins with sprouts. Yum!

“Mmmmmm muffins. Thank you!”
Mmmmm
They look delicious, Kozzy. Enjoy!

Thank you SO MUCH to Wayne and Dawn for making and sending Kozmo some very special vegan muffins. He ate a few bites and even shared some with the other ducks. You’re so thoughtful to send them. And it’s just great that they arrived the night before Kozmo goes back in for a re-do of his biopsy.

Kozmo had a big day today, too. I didn’t realize he could get himself around even though his legs don’t work. He pulled himself right into the pool while I was at work, and then pulled himself right back out — all with his beak! That strength is going to serve him well tomorrow in surgery. I guess he really wanted a swim. Thankfully he was able to get himself back out on his own. I never dreamed he could get around like that! Silly duck.

Anyway, thanks and quacks to Wayne & Dawn.

XOXOX

Love,

Kozzy and family

I picked some peonies for you.

I’m going to settle down for a good, long nap.

Ha ha that’s a great napping spot, Flapper. Sweet dreams.

And Happy Father’s Day to all good Dads.
