Jez’s check up did not go well. Although she is really well in herself, and the wound on her leg has healed well, her knee is not good. The vet was really disappointed as the knee is still slipping, which it should not do. The vet manipulated her leg a lot, pulling it and pushing it. And it’s still a bit swollen and tender in places. But Jez was as good as gold. She tried to sit down, so I had to hold her up, but otherwise she never made a sound and just let him get on with it. The upshot is that we are going to see what it’s like in 2 weeks time when the muscle has strengthened and the cartilage has grown back a bit more. If it’s not any better she will be referred to an orthopaedic consultant and may need further remedial surgery. Poor little soul. I gave her a big chew bar as a treat for being such a good girl when we got home. I’ve noticed that her leg is very stiff tonight after all that pulling around.
As regards the central heating, we’ve got a guy coming tomorrow to look at it and service the boiler. The boiler is definitely working as we have hot water, so it might be a problem with the pump. Anyway we’ll know tomorrow. I dread to think how much it’s going to cost, though.
Oh, and the knitting is not going well. I’ve gone wrong yet again. The trouble is I can’t see it on the black wool.
