Had a rough weekend with Marsh and to be honest we weren't sure he would make it as his temperature wasn't going down and was still high Monday morning. By Monday evening his temperature had come down to 102.9* and he was showing more interest in eating- in fact my DH said that he pushed others out of the way to get to the hay! This morning his temperature was 101.5* and we'll see what it is tonight. Our vet was glad to hear of his improvement too as he wasn't sure what we should do next. So for now we are cautiously optimistic that he is on the road to recovery

. We will know later this afternoon how it turns out!!!

How is Marsh doing now? It's been about a week... We'll be up over 90 the rest of the week and approaching triple digits by the coming weekend. No forecast for rain either. Guess summer has arrived.

Marsh is back to his normal self- and doing well....we are so lucky and thankful he made it!!
Yuck on the hot weather....we are suppose to have a cold front coming through this evening and temps should hopefully go back into the 70's. We had rain last night-a few places to the west had some flooding.

He's doing okay, he has good days and not so good days. We're seeing/experiencing the side effects of a head injury that happened 8 years ago. He's had a couple mini seizures-nothing that requires hospitalization but still seem to take something out of/away from him. If all goes well over the next 4-5 weeks, they are planning to go home
and he's counting the days.

Thanks to @Samantha drawz , we have some new recipes to try using goat milk...yesterday we made a batch of Farmers Cheese- we made some with dill in it- it turned out good and tastes yummy!! Friends of ours stopped in and they liked it(took some home with them to eat). Today we are hoping to try making fudge
