Spotted Robin

We saw the local oncologist today to have Robin's spots checked. We had called the city doctors the other day and they thought she might have "shingles". I guess it's a common affliction for someone with a suppressed immune system (e.g. chemo patients and HIV patients). So Robin was "quarantined" (no hanging out with children or with chemo patients) until the local doctors could have a look at her. When we got to the oncologist's office she was put right into an exam room so she wouldn't fraternize with the other patients in the waiting area.

She doesn't seem to have the classical symptoms of shingles, and the spots seem to be getting better, so the plan is to wait and just keep an eye on the spots in case they start to look worse.

Robin had to skip her morning nap to see the doc, so now she's going to nap right through the lunch hour!
