The Power of Three

In veterinary medicine it always seems that things happen in three's.  It's very strange, but true... as many a veterinarian will tell you.  No matter how random the disease or event, somehow they seem to always occur in three's.  Today, I saw two dogs with uveitis (inflammation of the eye) that was caused by a cataract.  This condition, while not rare nor overly common, occurred in back to back appointments at my relief position today.  Neither dog was diabetic, meaning that the cataracts were most likely hereditary, and both dogs were middle aged.  I'm just wondering when the third will surface - hopefully not tonight since it's late :)  Till next time - stay well!
