I am cross-posting (there may be a more efficient way to do this so suggestions welcome) with Lantus. And, I am thinking of doing this daily because Lanky has so much going on. Although this forum has not been as active as LL it does target a special need that many of us have -- helping our ACRO babies. And, we started this adventure in Lantus Land so there is a sentimental attachment, at least for me.
Lanky uses Lantus, is high dose, recently dx ACRO, blood sample for GH test to be taken this week & sent to Minnesota for analysis on July 8, my vet should be talking with Dr. Lunn regarding ACRO treatments, my constant helper, supporter, & recommender is D and Noisy from Lantus Land, we are learning as we go, if it is in the "cards" I want to take Lanky to CSU for treatment, everyday is a struggle & a worry but I am hanging in there because of all of you & Lanky.
It is heartbreaking to read about all of the needy kitties but heartwarming to hear and see all of the concerned help & advice. I don't have much history or background to opine strongly on much of the discussions I see going on here, in Community, FB, etc. on DCIN, format & process, people stuff. But because:
1-learning curve is phenomenal just to try & understand about the diseases (ACRO & FD),
2-using the SS, the board, the backup board, FB, etc. does not come naturally for some of us,
3-getting healthy debate appears to be in every kitties best interest even though it is hard for some of us beans,
anything that helps the newbies get up to speed fast, supports the regulars when they are at their wits end which happens often, and keep us on the cutting edge of knowledge & technique sharing has to be a good thing. If that is the focus, maybe some of these other annoyances & perturbations can be held to a minimum.
Anything and everything that helps the kitties & helps us help the kitties should be pursued, kept, enhanced, made better.
