Mango is a BRAT!!!!!! It was as if he was never diabetic. He is obsessed with treats! I want to pull my hair out, but just die laughing! He is always sitting by the laundry room waiting for treats since that is where for three months he got his bg checked and always got a treat for it. He can be outside on the lanai with the doors closed and if he even thinks we are getting up off the couch and going anywhere near the kitchen where the laundry room is off of, he races to want in thinking he will get a treat. He will sit by the laundry room door staring us down and talking because he constantly wants a treat!!! He is driving us nuts! Lol He is back to his old self again. He is now jumping on the kitchen counter again where he continues to beg for treats. He will sit there staring us down while we watch tv. Sometimes we just close him in the laundry room to mess with him. I can be standing up holding him and he will go nuts trying to get down when daddy goes through the laundry room to go out in the garage. It is all about the treats!!! His bg has been great. Today he was in the 50's. He stays in the 80's and below. He runs around playing with his toys again and he can jump up on his cat condo again. What a difference since he has been OTJ. I do not ever have to worry about sleeping in. It is like clock work that he is pawing on my husband and me at 4:30 am to get treats and food. He still thinks I need to get up and check him. He paws on the covers and my face to wake me up. He will also whine at us. He makes us laugh so much. Again, it is this forum that got us to this place. Without it, Mango would not be where he is today. Thank you to everyone for helping and getting me to this point. On another note, our first grand baby will be moving close to us! Our son got promoted through FedEx trucking and will be relocating to Orlando. He now lives in Dallas Texas but will be moving in two weeks! Our granddaughter will be only three hours away instead of 18 hours away. We were only able to fly to Dallas a couple times a year and now we will see her at least three times a month. AND.... Our daughter in law and granddaughter will be staying with us for a week while they wait until their new apt. is finished and can move in. Our son will be staying in Orlando with his boss for the week. He doesn't feel comfortable having his wife and child staying at his single bosses house by herself while he is working. Talking about being in heaven! A grandmother's dream come true! There is so much to do in Orlando. We will be busy this summer! Mango being OTJ will allow us to travel as my son hates animals and will not let Mango in his new apt. He is OCD when it comes to germs. Hope all is going well with all of you.
