Such a heavy heart today on LL. It is especially hard because I am seeing more decline in Tuscany. The sarcoma is getting larger, her limp very pronounced. It almost looks like the wrist is collapsing but I think that is mostly optical illusion at this point with the mass sticking out backwards more.
I started the bupe last pm. A very small dose - I kind of wanted to ease into it so only .03 twice a day at this time. It is oral. I may have been procrastinating starting the bupe cause it is like admiting it is finally time and that her days are numbered. I feel like I've mentally put her in hospice now, even though I knew she wasn't going to survive the summer. I grapple with trying to justify keeping her going with pain meds - and is it selfish of me. But - she is still purring, still eating, still grabbing (with the bad paw) for her treats and she is still mostly her cranky self.

Sorry for adding more sadness in LL today. (((Cosmo, Jake, Lucy, Latte and all the others needing this blizzard of snow that is burying LL)))

Re: 7/16 Tuscany amps~224, +6~164 have started bupe

Joyce, you and Tuscany are very brave. I know how hard it is to watch your baby get worse. Just enjoy all of the positive things, purrs, grabbing treats, etc. and don't think about the end. There will be plenty of time to cry later, but I know this is easier said than done.

I hope the bupe helps her feel better, though it doesn't sound like she feels bad. You're doing a terrific job, this is so tough to go through. (( Joyce & Tuscany ))
 
Re: 7/16 Tuscany amps~224, +6~164 have started bupe

I hope the bupe helps and you have all the time you want and need with Tuscany. Yes, it's a very difficult day in LL.
 
Re: 7/16 Tuscany amps~224, +6~164 have started bupe

My thoughts are with you (((Joyce))) and (((Tuscany))). I hope the bupe makes her more comfortable, and that you may have many more quality moments to cherish forever.
 
Re: 7/16 Tuscany amps~224, +6~164 have started bupe

My thoughts and prayers with you as well.. Sounds like Tuscany is still getting around pretty well... But my heart aches for you, knowing that you are seeing her decline... it's so hard to watch... but as long as she's being her "cranky self", I say enjoy her! Enjoy this time you have and if you can steal a little extra with bupe or whatever, I say go for it.

And thanks again for all the support and advice you gave when Blue had his surgery... We appreciate it more than you know...

I hope the bupe will help her and make her more comfortable....dear Joyce....sending blizzards of snowflakes and prayers for you both...(((((Joyce & "Tuscany)))))
 
Dear Joyce & Tuscany, It is so tough to watch closely our kitties' conditions and not to see improvement, but when they keep doing the little things they've always done, every day is a good day. I hope the bupe will ease any pain Tuscany might have. She is a strong, brave girl, and so are you, (((((Joyce))))). Lots of good thoughts, healing vines, and snowflakes are continuing to head your way.

Ella & Stu
 
Joyce, thinking of you and Tuscany tonight, I'm hoping her evening went well.
Many more prayers and healing vines for her on the way.
 
Joyce please NO...I cannot bear another kitty in pain or decline--This has never happened in LL as long as I am here--
Tuscany is a brave strong girl, and I know she will fight..I dont even know what to say next as I am so choked up after today!
I am praying with all my heart for Tuscany, and for you Joyce, to have the strength you need--
Love you both--Hope she feels better maybe tomorrow ((((((Joyce & Tuscany)))))
