The Steeple & Update On My Wills

I know all of you were praying as was I for a great checkup with good news.
Sweet William has healed with nice pink skin on the outside but he has and infection which the ClinzGard Barrier Gel, a sustained release antibiotic did not kill..
Now he is on fourteen days of oral Clindamycin.
Clindamycin is used to treat serious infections caused by bacteria.
His gland has moved because of scar tissue to the seven o'clock position which means he will need to be expressed from the inside.  But if the antibiotic wipes out the infection the vet does not believe Sweet William will need surgery.
I have a list of signs to look out for and if they occur I have to get him to the vet immediately but if the swelling goes down and the antibiotic does its work, I don't have to take him back for a month.

We  have a funny side occurrence, well if anything about this accident can be funny,  my Wills now wags his tail up and down not sideways and I swear he grins when he does. 

We noticed that it was the 75th anniversary of United Dairy, so since Wills was such a good boy at the vet I treated him to a dip of vanilla ice cream for 75cents.  Wills did not eat all of his ice cream or the treat stuck in the ice cream so I know he is not feeling well.

ON WITH OUR POST

Do you remember this as a child?

Here's the church, and here's the steeple
Open the door and see all the people.
Here's the parson going upstairs,
And here he is saying his prayers.

HERE is the church (put your hands together)
and :HERE is the steeple (point your pointing fingers straight up to make a "steeple")
 then,: OPEN the doors (open your thumbs)
 and :LET OUT the people (wiggle your entwined fingertips so that it looks like people exiting a church)

Children love this nursery rhyme as it combines lyrics and words with actions

It was probably steeped in English history where the architecture of churches and its steeple dominated the skyline of all towns.

We took these pictures before Sweet William The Scot got hurt.

Well here is the door!

Well here is the steeple!

Well open the doors!

The church is gone!  Where did the church go!
I am so confused!

The church and the people are gone!
I, Sweet William The Scot, guess someone beamed them up!
Bawheheeee

The Walnut Hills Presbyterian Church's impressive Gothic Tower still stands.  In 1819,
 Rev. James Kemper helped to establish the First Presbyterian Church of Walnut Hills. The remaining tower of the church still exists today.
It is alleged that but for the presence of Mr. Kemper and his family in our town and ready to begin building a church, and his example of rallying people to take care of the sick, wounded, weary and distraught army of St. Clair, most of the people coming to Ohio would have stampeded south.  He was held in high esteem among Native Americans for his bravery.

Thanks for being a  friend
