Oh, I almost lost my condo! I could see the board was going to crap out after I submitted, so I quickly cut-n-pasted my text into Word before it did. PHEW!!!
Today marks 7 weeks with no juice, which also means 7 weeks since the pancreatitis nightmare started. I can't believe it's already been that long.
With that AMBG, I could have skipped Trix's follow-up pokie test this morning, but what can I say? I was greedy and wanted to see the green :mrgreen: ! Interestingly, her "PS" numbers have come down a bit over the past few days, since I started assist feeding. It could be purely coincidence, of course, but you know how us FD beans are...we're always patterns and answers that probably don't exist :lol: !
Trix is doing pretty well today...about the same as the past couple days since I started the syringe feeding. Her appy on her own is OK, and it does seem like it may be improving since I started the assist feeding. I still have to present and/or hold the plate for her, but she's eating more per sitting than she was. And this morning, I could tell she was being finicky and not being "not hungry"...she ate some of her own Fancy Feast platter, but was VERY interested in the kibbleheads.
Her eyes are very bright and spunky today, too!
@Tricia - Yep, no denying it: I will always be a helicopter MamaBean, even if she did eat better on her own! I hope some day my helicoptering is just about pettings and not fuds....as much as I am a hardcore helicopter, the appy issues are too nerve-rattling.
It's my day off, so hanging out with kitties and running a few errands.
Sending prayers out that J.D. feels better soon.
Have a great day, LL!

It is a great WCR today.
