Subject: RE: BS: Life in Guam, uh, Guahan.
Shawna is very comfortable here. It's funny how she heads straight for the air conditioned bedroom when we come indoors.
However, it will be a while until we can see that again. I took her to the vet today to get her started on her heartworm treatment. I initially thought we'd leave her for a week. Now it appears she'll be there for a month.
Once the first seven days are done she needs to be confined for another three weeks as she throws off the remainder of the parasites. The doctor said we'd have to keep her in the bathroom for that whole time. I don't think we are heartless enough to watch her trying to get out of a small room. I'll talk with Wakana about it when we get home together.
My mother says their dog, Milo, died while they had him home during the treatment.
