No blood test on Blue because I already had them done so sent them over.

One of Brats eyes changed color a year or so ago. I ask about it and was told that can happen in older cats.

I'm confused now, so please bear with me. Did your own vets do blood tests before Blue went to the oncologist yesterday? If not, when did Blue last have blood work done? (Sorry for having to ask, I'm just trying to get my head round all of what's happened since the night before last. Let me know as and when you can. :bighug: )

How's Blue's temperature now?

Blue had blood work this week at my vet. They sent it to Bluepearl so they didn't need to run it again.
I haven't taken it again. He's sleeping peacefully right now but his ears are not hot like they were.
 
I'm glad Blue's resting and his ears are cooler (and that he's had some food and water). Do you have an oscillating fan that could keep some moving air around him, perhaps? Maybe check his temperature again in a little while? (Just throwing out ideas here in the hope that something might help a little bit.)

((((Blue))))

His ears are warm and not hot like they were. I don't want him to get too cool. He could go into shock. I'm not far from him and keep checking. He's much more alert now. I want to give the new chemo a chance to work but I also don't want him to suffer.
Brat is laying beside me.
 
I'm glad Blue's perked up, and that Brat's snuggled close to you.

((((Patty, Blue and Brat))))

How's your knee today?

My knee is ok. It will get worse before it gets better is what I was told.

So worried about Blue. I'm not going to check his BG tonight. He doesn't need anything else done to him. He ate a little bit. Brat wouldn't eat. I can't find Teddy.
 
I’m glad Blue is eating and not hiding. :bighug:
Brat might very well have IBD. Neither IBD or lymphoma can be diagnosed by xrays or even ultrasound.
 
It is overwhelming but most of all I'm worried about Blue. He's not feeling well at all.

Oh and she did say Teddy could be hyper-thyroid.
That would explain the weight loss and diarrhea.
Now that I think about it, I've noticed he climbs on me then leaves and does this over and over again. It's irritating but maybe he can't help it. Too much energy.

I just read your condo today and my heart goes out to you.:bighug: . Thinking of all your babies tonight but especially Blue. Sending prayers that his body adjusts to the new medication regimen and he turns a corner very soon.

Thank you. It's been a rough day. I just gave him some more water. I'm so tired but afraid to go to bed. I feel helpless. I appreciate the prayers and everyone listening while I freak out. It's just too much to go through all at once.

:bighug::bighug::bighug::bighug::bighug: I was "sleeping" on the couch near butters when she was sick. It was so hard to sleep. But you need to try at least a little bit. I know it's difficult. Freak out as much as you need to. I'm always checking up on your condos just to give some extra support and prayers:bighug::bighug:.

I appreciate you doing that. He just got up to go to the litter box. I'll probably sleep on the couch too. I want to check on him throughout the night. Brat is sleeping next to me so I might have to wait for her to wake up before I can lay down. I hate disturbing her because she's very ill too. I'm happy she looks comfortable.

This.

Even if it's just light, brief short naps on the sofa, Patty, try to snatch what bit of sleep you can. It's something very mundane but vital that you can do to care for them tonight. You need to look after you a little bit so that you can be there for them.

Meds are kicking in. Last thing before the shutters come down will be prayers, and all of you are very much in them.

((((Patty, Blue, Brat and Teddy))))

I am going to bed now. I took Blue's temperature again and it's normal. I've been wiping him down and feeding
him syringes of water, some with pedilite. I know it has some sugar in it but I felt like he needed it. I mixed it
with water.
The couch is officially the cats tonight. Brat was already there and Mia decided she'd take my spot when I got up.
Night and thank you all. :bighug::bighug::bighug:
