Good afternoon and Happy Friday. I've been having computer problems this morning....this is the 4th time I've typed my condo so sorry for the lateness. I have errands to run, too, so my day is getting off to a slow start.

Sending many healing vines and prayers to Rocket and Whiskers and their beans. We hold you close in our thoughts and hearts.

WCR: 5Ps in place. Lovely cycle yesterday a.m. for Gracie as she broke through her bounce. We had to give her a little sumpin' about +9/9.5 to bump her up a tad as she was wandering back towards the 50s. Odd pm cycle....she just surfed right around high blue/low yellow for several hours before deciding to bungee back up to high yellow and ending with pink this morning. She's slowly coming down today so she'll either give me a 50 when I get back from running errands :) and/or she'll keep me up all night. That's ok....healing numbers is what it's about for us right now.

Unhappy news for us today: our almost 15 year old civvie, Gus, has progressed from renal insufficiency to early renal failure. In six weeks, creat went from 2.8 to 3.8, phos from 4 to 5, BUN slightly increased, potassium good and stable, HCT down a bit. So we're starting daily squids instead of EOD, put him on AlOh to try and bring phos down, pepcid AC at night as earlier this week before I started it, he was doing the morning foamy vomit a couple times. Since starting it late at night, he's been doing much better...plus we make sure that he eats right before we go to bed and as soon as we get up. I tried to load a wonderful picture of he, Gracie, and GA Max in healthier days but it booted me off.

How do I get all of our functions back....smilies, adding attachments, etc? Thanks for any help. I'm running way behind now so will jump off. Have a great day.

Sorry to hear about Gus, I went through that w/ Cleo years ago, it looks like you are on top of things though. ❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧ ❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧ ❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧

Gracie seems to be nice and slow today, one good thing for today at least.
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie AMPS 327 +2 311 +4 267

I'm sorry about Gus. ((((((Sending hugs for you, DH and Gus)))))). They have come a long ways in being able to manage CRF and he will do well with you guys being able to do subq's and monitor him.

Gracie's cycle last night was beautiful.

I'd love to see pictures when you are able to post them.
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie AMPS 327 +2 311 +4 267

I'm going to get a Photobucket or Picassa account so I can just link to photos and not have to upload them. Uh huh, yeah sure, I'll get that done. ohmygod_smile :lol:
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie AMPS 327 +2 311 +4 267

Healing vines sent to dear Gus & hope he gets better! Gracie has been having great numbers, and that's great--We love our furbabies so much & try so hard to keep them well--You are a great Bean Marj!!
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie AMPS 327 +2 311 +4 267

Nice and slow for Gracie - she must have known you had errands today. It's always so great when they cooperate.

Boy can I relate to the computer issues thing... I can't decided if I need a new one, or I just need to give it a swift kick in it's read end. Sorry you had to do your post 4 times - that really sucks.

I wish the best for Gus - no doubt you guys will do the best for him. Lots of healing vines for you buddy!

Gracie??? Does Gus need the KTSS? Can we help??? ~~ Mannie
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie AMPS 327 +2 311 +4 267

So sorry to hear about Gus... it sounds like you have a good plan on how to proceed that will keep him safe and comfortable. Looks like Gracie was working her way down... hope you see some blue tonight and get back to greens soon!

Have a great night!
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie AMPS 327 +2 311 +4 267

Sorry to hear the news about Gus. Vines and prayers for Gus and you and DH. Looks like Gracie is having a nice day.
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie AMPS 327 +2 311 +4 267

Yes, we need to get KTSS to Gus! Got to keep our skills up to date! -- Tess

I'll have to answer your posts in just a bit; got errands run but it's been crazy since I got back...squids for elder civvies, Teddi threw up, and then Gracie got into Teddi's food while I was feeding Gus so I have no idea what her PMPS is now going to look like. It was looking promising. Thankfully, she got into the same food I am giving her for dinner but I don't know how much she ate. At least I know her PMPS was not going to be low and if she gets a food spike, I'm still ok. Oh boy.... ohmygod_smile ohmygod_smile ohmygod_smile and thanks Craig for getting our icons back....felt uncommunicative without them. :lol: :lol: back shortly with pmps.
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie PMPS 140

I really appreciate all the visits and encouraging words for Gus today and, of course, the KTSS. I'm not sure where this path will lead with Gus. His QOL is not that great because his arthritis is so severe. We could have spent two months on vacation in Europe staying at the best hotels for what we've spent on stem cell surgery and injections, acupuncture, reiki, NRT, supplements, pain mgmt specialists....the list goes on and on. I am thankful for pet insurance. Anyway...we will keep him comfy and as long as he is his normal purry self, we'll do what we need to do for him. He is just a great kitty...really a sweetheart boy.

Looks like the extra food didn't hurt Gracie too much..probably helped to some extent. Except the calories :lol: :lol: I think she plans on keeping me up tonight. Time to spend time loving on kitties. Will check in as the night progresses as I believe we are in for a PJ party. Have a great evening to all who might be hitting the sack soon..so envious ;-)
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie PMPS 140 +1 88 +1.5 66

Looks like it will be a long night tonight....appear to have some carryover going on. We've already started the 10% and I gave two FTs karo at +1.5 to slow this little freight train/steamroller down!!
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie PMPS 140

I have not visited here for a while. I am so sorry to hear about Gus.
It looks like Gracie is having a good day and her night might be pretty good too but long for you. :smile:
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie PMPS 140 +1 88 +1.5 66

Oh yeah, pj party for you! Sorry but I'm taking sleep when I can get it.

Gracie! I'm happy to give Gus massages, he's vey sweet. If I escape the trip I'll come back tomorrow. -- Tess
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie PMPS 140 +1 88 +1.5 66

Miriam: wish you'd visit more often!!! Always love to see you in our condo. Thanks for your thoughts about Gussie.

Ann and Michelle: boy, we gotta get synced up again so we're all up at the same time. I vision you snug in your beds with a good book and sweet kitties!!! I already have the ~O) ~O) going. Hope you both get some great rest tonight.

Tess...that would be perfect.....we'll wait for you as soon as you can come.
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie PMPS 140 +1 88 +1.5 66

Healing vines for your Gus (((HUG))) and looks like you may have a long night for you Gracie is sure looking good ;-)
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie PMPS 140 +1 88 +2 55

Gracie dropped pretty early tonite--Looks good--I'm here with you!--Coming w/ ~O) ~O) and :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie PMPS 140 +1 88 +2 55

Seems like Gracie is doing so well lately!! Moonie too, but so unexpected!! Was giving her this dose for a while & all of a sudden, she responded! I was shocked!--Now everyday she 's dropping like a rock!
Gotta test shortly..
I know what an emotional & financial stress having ill animals are! Moonie's arthritis is in one knee & the other foot is the neuropathy one, she has little strength in.. She is in my head all the time..I can only imagine how you feel!! BUt they are so dear to us--I would do anything for them! even be broke :cool: :cool: Gus is in loving hands! and our hearts!
OK I am testing Moonie & taking Karo with me!! Paws & fingers crossed!!! ohmygod_smile BRB
 
Re: 2/4 Gracie PMPS 140 +1 88 +2 55 +3 69
