Hello everybody! It's me... Mannie. My bean said I get to write my condo today, cuz, well.... IT IS MY 4 YEAR ON-THE-JUICE ANNIFURSARY!
oh - this is from my bean :roll: :roll: ------>
she says it's a white mocha or sumtin'... i dunno.... :roll: :roll:
Can you believe it??? 4 years for me. I am sooooooo excited, cuz well... I am now healthy and happy and content and so much better than I was before they told me I had FD. I didn't even know what that was.... I did know though that I was scared, and hungry all the time, and so skinny.... the vetties at first didn't know what was wrong with me. They thought maybe I had a bad heart... :shock: nah! that wasn't it - I could have told them that! nuthin' wrong with my ticker..... then they thought I had IBD. :shock: nah.... that wasn't it. I knew my tummy and stuff were just fine, but that the fuds weren't working for me.... I'd eat and eat and nothing made me feel full, ya know? Then they thought I needed x-rays and ultrasounds and stuff.... :shock: nah that wasn't it. Them x-rays and stuff looked good. shesshhhhh!!! One day they said we gots to do my blood work, again. :roll: :roll: By now I was really irritated with all them pokies... but hey! guess what!! There it was!: a BG of 683!!
scary! And so began my journey. My bean tried so hard... but we didn't know about fdmb, and went through 3 hypos :cry: , and rocky rollercoaster rides :sad: , until a year and a half later someone took my bean under her wing and showed her all these great folks in LL! 
You guys saved me! I LUBS YOU ALL! so... today we celebrate! A party at my house - A BIG PARTY! I am SO HAPPY. Thank you all for being there for me and my bean.
my bean said I had to include all this stuff too. ok..... i will....

Mannie
With all frivolity and humor and attempted wit aside -- today is a very special day for Mannie and I. We began this journey 4 years ago, floundered for a year and a half before we found fdmb. We were so scared, uneducated back then, fearful every day..... I cannot thank Chris from Chris and Chloe enough for bringing me here. I am eternally grateful for each and every one of you. You all have made my guy happy, healthy, whole again. I thank all of you who held my hand, supported me, told me when I screwed up, laughed when I needed it, questioned me when I strayed, help guide the ship, and believed. Thanks to all of you who took the time to read Mannie's daily sagas. I know for a fact that without you - all of you - that Mannie would not be here today. For that alone I cannot thank you enough.
Have a great day everyone! I am back on DGS duty through Friday, no condo visiting for me.... Swimming today, and I hope for good weather so that we can go to a local park, or the river, after that. Paws crossed. I will miss you guys, and will try and get to condos when I can. and all you furkids: think blue, think green kitties!
And completely OT: Photos from Nicholas's and my adventures yesterday: Meadowdale County Park, and Picnic Point Beach. Even though Mannie gave us a run for you money in the morning,we still were able to get outside and enjoy what laid before us. A super super day.... I've also included the FaceBook link for anyone who want to see the whole lot of photos, and the videos. Nicholas at Meadowdale County Park, and Nicholas at Picnic Point
