Little Girl: no stones

[cjsmith]

On Friday afternoon I saw my first ever X-ray of a fart. Air shows up dark on the film, y'see.

The good news is that Little Girl had no visible kidney stones. YAY! (Her kidneys were also a little shrunken and lumpy. She's gettin' older. Boo.)

I was in the back at the clinic, in the surgery room because that's where the X-ray light box thingy is, so I just said "Oh look! A fart!" :-) The vet laughed.

The smell of recent death, hmm? Interesting. I wonder what compounds her nose responds to differently than most folks' noses do.

I think the first hour or so was no big deal, it was the beginning of either decomposition or insect infestation that was most compelling. Maybe she has vulture genes.
