Memorial Day is a time to honor those that have given the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Originally known as Decoration Day, it originated in the years following the Civil War, to remember […]

Testing My New Superpowers

I walked the entire length of the beach, head up, tail wagging, and taking in all the familiar and new sounds and smells with great delight. And like all newly appointed superheroes, I […]

Today I’m sharing an updated version of the song I wrote three years ago when I lost my first eye to Golden Retriever Pigmentary Uveitis (GRPU). When I wrote it in 2023, it wasn’t like my usual lighthearted parodies. I was angry. Everything happened so fast when I needed that emergency enucleation surgery. Now here […]

Asa’s Odyssey with GRPU
My odyssey, or in this case eyedyssey, with Golden Retriever Pigmentary Uveitis (GRPU) has come to an end. It all began back in 2018 when my brother’s littermate started having eye issues.

Although I’m sure you have been keeping a close watch over me, I thought I’d give you and our friends an update. Thankfully, each day […]
