A Missive from Maisie

When last we left our faithful heroine Maisie, she was still recuperating in Dr. Cobb's Colbert County Clinic. She has sent word on her condition via the good doctor:


I would like to update everyone on Maisie the wonder beagle. The pin is out of her leg and we recently spayed her. She is doing well, she still has trouble with her leg but I believe that will get better. The important thing is that she is alive and well and, as the old saying goes, full of piss and vinegar. Trader came by to see her not long ago and was thrilled. She is an inspiration to everyone she meets. To all of you who donated let me say thanks on behalf of Maisie and the staff here at Colbert Animal Clinic. All the donations were used exclusively for Maisie. I read a great quote the other day that fits occasions like this,"The fact that you can only do a little is no excuse for doing nothing". The combined efforts of all of you produced great results. Once again, thank you and if you're in the area Maisie does receive visitors.

As you can see, it's been a very long road for her. We hope to help others with Maisie's Fund for injured animals, and we'll have more on this later.
