Hello Pierson, I did in fact receive your e-mail ... however I've been (here come the excuses) really busy! First, as of Dec 12 we are once again grand-parents, this for the first time, to a little dark haired girl! Totals at six now, you've got some catching up to do.
Work has been exceedingly demanding, long days, short nights. And through it all we're looking at our financial state ... which equates to a 50 foot, dry well with a 25 foot rope and a bucket with a hole in it. Hey, just thinking, what's the difference between debt load and magnum load? Nothing, one just kills you faster than the other! I perceive a stroke of cynicism so it's time to change topics.
The waters are doing pretty much OK. The eye infections abated, then returned about 3 days ago in both pictiventris. This is really baffling! You mentioned earlier, "fungus". This was generally disqualified by the vets or least left as a last consideration. Here's my question ... do you know of any kind of "infection" that cycles rather than is persistent? Research on the web has not produced anything that clearly describes the condition of these 2 guys. I remain undaunted.
