My Inspiration

We are in the 2nd week of my honey's cancer treatment...
6 are scheduled, hopefully that's all he'll ever need again besides regular scopes.
The first week was horrendous but this 2nd week went way better.  Hopefully they get easier!
I'll tell you about it more soon but I have to first talk about how much I admire his attitude.
This was before his first surgery...


He was tired because the night before we had a very sudden & completely unexpected rescue!
He was scared shitless, no need to say that of course!
and he woke up with a really bad migraine BUT he here was smiling, holding my hand,
making conversation, being patient even though the surgery was like 3 hours late...just being him.
I am looking to him to set the tone & mood of all this & he's been nothing but an inspiration to me.

Still An Infection

In 26 years of being a caretaker of animals, this past month was the first times ever that I had to go
to vet visits by myself because Flynn was suddenly sick and my honey was stuck in a hospital bed.
(and for Higgins because it looked like he had a slash on the top of his eyeball but he was just fine!).

Well today we had another visit for Flynn & I was so happy to have my partner back by my side...
This guy will move everything around so that he can be at every rabbit appointment,
so I know to be stuck in that bed & having me rushing Flynn to the vet that one night by myself would have been even more stressful for him that it was for me.
To say he's one dedicated Papa doesn't cut it!
Let's hope he never misses another one again!


It's funny to us when people suggest that we have to take care of 'us' now.
That we shouldn't worry so much about the rabbits cause they are just rabbits...
These people clearly don't understand that the rabbits are part of us...they are our family.
So we will continue to find a way, no matter how hard, to take care of all of our stuff AND theirs.

There are days for sure where I doubt we can keep doing this...this rescue life.
But my honey reminds me that this/they are who we are & we have still atleast 9 still counting on us.
So Flynn is doing just fine...still a bit of an infection in that right ear unfortunately
so he's on another month long antibiotic protocol but he's doing really well and has put on weight.

Moments Of Beauty

I have always been the kind of person to steep in the beauty of simple things...


Now more than ever, since my husbands cancer diagnosis, I am soaking in beauty amidst the stress.
