Color of light and brightness.
Yes I understand. Here's the weird thing, the ones that caused my post are bluish which is great when you want total bright illumination but on a regular dimmer switch when I turned it down the did get dimmer but kind of flickered and no change of color.
To my way of thinking the old incandescents do actually change from a yellow to orange when you turn them way down. Example, candelabra bulbs at night sometimes I turn them way down they are definitely less yellow-white and change to orange.
I'm probably missing something in my understanding. Bottom line is everything is going to be LED so some things are going to be a re-think / re-do for lighting. Like, they have those strip LED's those might be nice in the kitchen, and you can change to all kind of different colors. Like the strips they sell for your vehicle where you can program them. All that.
Are candelabra base bulbs all going to be LED too? Fluorescents I assume, no change... I hope.
My mind is somewhat disjointed, the dog has cancer on top of her head, had one operation already, won't heal up and cancer is back, had total body CAT scan yesterday and now I have the option for another operation (first just got some of it and to find out wtf is it) which may or may not get all of it so then you have potentially follow up chemo / radiation. That operation would be super invasive and surgical oncologist, they try to get it all but there's no guarantee of that. She's 12+ years old and I never had a GSD live past or to 13 yrs so it's going to be something sooner or later. Plus they said there's some kind of growth on her spleen probably not cancer but might have to take spleen out. So there's the option put her down. She's on pain meds but I saw all the CAT pictures I mentioned and the cancer is pressing down in her sinus and they said, that would be painful. It's invasive aggressive cancer. But she's happy, or puts on a good simulation of it anyway, so how do you know what to do and I think the answer is when it feels like you are keeping them alive for your sake not for theirs and you can see they are losing all the joy and activity then I think that's the time. Anyway it's been tearing me apart and all the stuff is super expensive but really if there were some magic bullet and assurances I don't care what it costs so unfortunately it's not a decision of money which just goes to show money causes problems because if I had no money I would just say, can't afford it so it's not happening but I don't have that luxury. If only there were some assurance, if we do such and such, cancer's gone, should live a long time - no - wouldn't happen - because she's old already. She's ok with the vet but this cancer place (it's VT Animal Cancer place, they have a whole building in the hospital complex here) seems like she hates it and I just can't see the balance of like trauma for her going there again and again and a really invasive operation. I don't know what to do and the surgeon is supposed to call by the end of the week and I have do decide, operation, no operation. Etc. Vicky says the dog still has a lot of life in her, when I told her I was considering putting her down as in "it's time". It's undecided and nobody can make the decision for me of "what's the right thing to do". I'm just ranting because it's so stressful and it's eating my lunch. I've gone through this before and had to put them down a couple times but it doesn't get easier especially when it's not clear cut. I took care of one (always GSD's) she couldn't even walk at all and I was doing bedding every freaking day for quite a while but she was happy and alert but then she started bleeding a lot out her back end and then you know, it's time, that's the end, they're gone, and you put them down because it's the only merciful thing to do.
Edit: But remember too, it is possible they get all the cancer out, and it all heals up, and she lives another year or so. That's a lot. In theory a good surgical oncologist goes around the margin of it and then the pathologist looks at it, and of course the acid test is, does it come back. Then you're looking at chemo / rad. You see why it's a hard decision.
