I know how you feel. Seeing a BG number can change my mood.
Come on down nicely Tray, so you momma feels better, k?
 
it's just so depressing this roller coaster ride of inconsistency. My emotions are all over the place and it's only Tuesday! lol

I can so relate with you Iorwen this FD really messes with us Beans doesn't it ? Hope Tray sees better numbers today as the day goes on ((((HUGS)))))
 
Thanks for your post today-
Yes this FD makes our lives a roller coaster of emotions, changes our lives forever, tranforms worry to a new height......
BUT--Give us a love & connection(mental & physical) to our kitties that few beans experience, teaches us patience, perserverance,
consistancy, and how to adjust to different situations--All this goes to our Furbabies, and believe me they know our devotion..
I have learned so much being here, about fd, myself & about cat health--Made friends, & created a connection to others here,
For all this I am thankful..
We are glad you found us, it WILL GET BETTER--We are all rooting for you--HUGS today from Us~!!!

this brought tears to my eyes, thank you for such a beautiful post.
 
Been there, felt like that.... even got the drama Queen award! :YMHUG:
It's possible that Tray may have had some blue yesterday during the day while you were at work.
Bounce can last up to 72 hours, so please sit tight and see what today and tonight brings.

And... please look beyond the number! There is a cat behind there.... looking at you with loving eyes saying "put food in this belly please!" It's important that you see that too.

I know, I know. And he's been doing great, playing and fighting with his brother and our dog and loving his food. I just get caught up in those numbers and worry worry, worry.
 
Tray might be going lower than you realize at times so there will be a bounce after the low.
It's such a long process, isn't it? But, you are doing a great job and Tray is on the mend. It just takes a LOT longer than what we would choose....if it was a choice that WE could make.
But we cannot make the choice...it just takes the time it needs.
WE just have to learn to be patient and trust that what we are doing is working behind the scenes...which it is. It IS working...keep on keeping on.
Sending HUGS across the miles to you....I know how you feel...guess we all do, right? :YMHUG:
 
Yes, we all sure do know how you feel, Iorwen! But we all are very lucky to have found this board and, as Roni said so beautifully, to have a close relationship with our cats and many new friends to lean on for help and support. Tray's numbers will straighten out in Tray's time. He's in charge. He's feeling good and that is so important. Look for the forest through the trees. A number is only a number (I try to tell myself this all the time!!).
Carry on!!

Yeah - look at all the reds and blacks in our SS over the last month or 2 and believe me - I KNOW how you feel. Now even with Kasha having better numbers lately, I know that things can change at any time. When people see me who haven't been around the last few months, they immediately comment on how much weight I've lost - I tell them I'm on the "all-stress-all-the-time" diet - LOL... But it turns around. We understand. I left some pretty negative, frustrated condos where I was just at my wit's end and ready to just throw in the towel (yes, I am also a drama queen!). But people on FDMB were always here to boost me up and commiserate and give me encouragement and cyber-hugs. Share stories to let me know they'd been through this kind of thing too. I don't know why it helps to hear that others know what you're going thru, but it definitely made me feel less alone when almost all the people around me in my day-to-day life didn't understand or didn't want to understand.

So just look at how well Tray is doing - how well he's feeling and acting. Enjoy every moment and try not to beat yourself up over his numbers. It's a process - for some of us it takes longer than others. Every time I see Kasha dart across the room pretending to dodge another ear prick (but she always stops within reach), I know that before all of this she never darted anywhere and I love to see her trotting or leaping or acting nice and sassy, like she used to.

Hang in there! And feel free to vent and share your frustrations with us... This is the place for it. And we'll all help you celebrate the good times when they come too!
 
I understand how you feel about these pink numbers and your frustration in general about FD. I don't believe there is anyone on this site that hasn't felt that frustration at one time or another.
