Good morning,
Yesterday's condo
Yesterday
AMPS=241 (0.5u); +2=274; +6=297; +10.25=243
PMPS=239 (0.5u); +2=256; +6=203; +10.5=198
Today
AMPS=229 (0.5u); +2=250; +7.5=306
PMPS=272 (0.5u); +2.5=277
First of all, I'd like to thank you all again for your compassion, vines, love, prayers and hugs.
Both Lucy and I really appreciate your support.
I just re-read everything you wrote in our yesterday's condo, and it made my eyes water.
Lucy is feeling good.
I got up at 5am to give her today's Cypro, and she was happy and purry.
I thought about not giving it for a moment, but ended up giving it because I want her to start eating more.
She's been eating about 1/4 of her meal portion on bad days and about 1/2 on good days.
Yesterday, she ate 3/4 for both breakfast and dinner, and I want her to keep eating that much.
I noticed I can feel her spine more, so she must be losing weight, but I can't tell how much because the fluid build-up in her abdomen is making her heavier than she actually is.
She already ate 1/2 of her breakfast, and she ate it pretty well.
I mentioned yesterday how I was all sad and depressed but Lucy was purry and in a very good mood yesterday afternoon, showing me how she wants to deal with this situation.
Last night, she came to bed with me, and sat on my chest. It was only for a few seconds, but this hadn't happened since she got sick.
And even though she had couple more diarrhea last night, she didn't sit on it like she'd been doing.
She kept her bum perfectly clean, so no bum bath!
Another amazing thing happened this morning.
I've been having to force-pill her in the past 3 weeks, instead of wrapping the pills with her favorite food like I used.
Capsules stick to the inside of her mouth, so I've been covering the capsules thinly with a small amount pillpocket.
She never ever liked pillpocket (I tried all flavors many times), so I still have to force-pill.
But this morning, she just ate them from my hand! Pills and all! Two of them!!
She still didn't like it, especially the stickiness of it, so it's probably the one time thing, but I think she's trying to help me.
I think she's trying to make things less stressful. So I will answer to her by being a happy momma.
Isn't she amazing??
I'm still waiting for the ultrasound appointment to confirm.
It's more or less confirmed that it'll happen on Thursday, but we don't know where.
When I called the vet yesterday afternoon, she was trying to see if she can get the radiologist come to our regular clinic rather than us going to a clinic further away we haven't been to.
It would be awesome if this can be arranged. I'll probably know today.
Sending vines to all in need.
