WCR: A bit higher this morning than I would have liked, however, the Forti Flora's doing the trick, and I'm able to get the others fed a bit sooner than having to wait until Blackie eats a fair amount before I can leave. Go, Forti Flora!
Bubba's doing ok. His appy is still there. I forgot to ask the vet yesterday if the cancer was an aggressive form. I'm still having a war with myself on whether or not medicating him for the infection at this point would be fine, and then wait until he stops eating and drinking before letting him go, or simply letting him go before he gets too bad, and save the suffering. I always say that they'll be put to sleep when they stop eating and drinking, and he's still doing that. We'll be taking him on Monday since DH wants to get the car into the shop to find out what's wrong with it. It's leaked oil all under the motor, and he's been taking the truck to go to work since yesterday. I'm without a vehicle at this point. The car has no oil in it right now, and he'll be stopping somewhere to get some so that we can take it to the mechanic's on Saturday. Both the vet and the mechanic are open the same time, and for the same amount of time.. Only 4 hours. Taking Bubba to the vet and doing the car isn't going to work in that short amount of time. Taking Bubba with us will not be fair for him, especially if he needs to sit in the carrier for a long period of time. He'll have a couple more days to spend with his family before we make the final decision. I still need to talk to the vet about the aggressiveness of the cancer. She said it's the squamous cell type, so I'm guessing it's aggressive, and we'll have to let him go on Monday.
Off topic: Today marks the 9th anniversary of our late Precious' passing. She's Bubba's grandmother. Another reason why the decision to postpone the vet visit for a couple more days. If we had to take him in Saturday, it'll be too close to her anniversary date.
I feel like I'm being selfish. I cried hard yesterday, and I kneeled in front of Bubba while he laid in his box on the floor. This isn't fair. 4 cats in 1 year. This isn't right, nor is it fair... For anyone. I really, truly hope that this is it. I can't take this anymore. Not for a very, very long time.
I apologize for my ranting.

MY WISH: For God to help heal the broken hearts of those who lost a beloved pet and/or human... For God to help those ailing make a full and speedy recovery... For everyone to have great #s... For everyone to be OTJ.
