Hey Nanook, their website was updated this afternoon. Was that you that made a visit? Did you get to see him?
February 22nd, 2pm: Jamie Meagher, DVM, was out to check on him while the station was here. She said he's not out of the woods yet. Unfortunately his legs are colder than her last visit, we keep them covered but will be watching that even closer. He's gained a little bit of weight since she was last here - that's good. He's not out of the woods yet, quite a ways to go before we can lower the worry level. She said he has about another week before we can safely say he's past the frostbite damage worries. While he's not past the danger zone, the fact that he's gained a little bit of weight helps. His standing for awhile each night is helping as well. She did say his eyes are brighter. After she left I made sure to reiterate the positive stuff from her visit, he doesn't need to worry about the other things that we need to worry about, that's for us big people to concentrate on and pray about.
Hey, I have to say while I was typing this a sweet lady stopped by to ask if she can bring the little guy out some carrots. She's disabled so can't volunteer but wanted to do something for him. You don't have to be here to make a difference in his life - believe me your thoughts and prayers are what have kept him alive this far so know that we all appreciate what you're doing so much.
February 22nd, 1:49pm: Jeffrey DeMars from KARE11 news left note too long ago. He tried to help get the webcam going - so far no luck, laptop's not picking up the wireless from the barn. He spent a lot of time with Windchill. If I watched television I would watch just because of that. He said there will probably be a link on their website so you can see the little guy that route maybe. I'm not fond of, nor do I feel I'm good at public speaking. Maybe Windchill's here to help me overcome that...I'm still holding onto once he's on his feet he's doing his own interviews. But you know the really sweet thing about this - the news people who have come out or who have called - keep calling and visiting. Glenn from WDIO asked if he could bring his family out to see the little guy. Will and Nina from the Duluth News-Tribune call to check on him and it doesn't always end up in the paper. You hear television newspeople called "talking heads" jokingly but I guess what surprises me is their hearts - that's the part you don't see on the public stage they live in. Windchill's quiet education of us continues. For those that were worried the oil company came out and refueled and relit the furnace so you hopefully won't have to come rescue us. Not to mention I probably wouldn't be half as as brave as Windchill if you had to thaw me with a blowdryer.
February 22nd, 10:05am: Sorry, our internet was down this morning.
I will be closely following him this weekend. I can't post any pictures from work. Go back to the website and look at the little guy. He is all wrapped up and even has a blanket over him. I'm praying ever so hard that he doesn't have frostbite on his legs. [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/70394-bawlout.gif[/img]
