Hi Everyone out there in LL!
I hope all kitties and beans have had a nice Labor Day weekend. This is the first time I'm posting in quite some time so I don't even recognize many names and I'm sure the opposite is true, but I haven't had a very easy summer.
Alex is doing AOK though (unjinx unjinx), He is still chubbyish, has a good appetite, has gotten even more affectionate than he was when I last posted and in the last two days he has even initiated PLAYING with Jackson. He jumped on him and went running into the bedroom this morning which I haven't seen for a long time(and I'm not thrilled about cause it scares me because of his heart)
Jackson's fur is just about all grown back from his surgery on Memorial Day weekend and although his hyper-t has escalated and he's lost a little weight and is ravenous at times, it's being treated and he seems to be feeling a LOT better since the big old ugly cyst was removed. (unjinx unjinx again).
For anyone who has celebrated OTJ this summer CONGRATULATIONS to a job well done. To anyone who has suffered a loss I am sorry that I wasn't around to support you and offer my prayers...but they are always in my heart for any of our kitties who are sick and there is always a light in my window to help one of ours cross the bridge. My Chance(GA) sees to that when I just can't. (Jill, I'm sorry that Alex hasn't been feeling well but glad to see she's doing better)
On top of my miserable work schedule which kept me from posting much to begin with, I lost my mom on July 20th. I knew it was coming, she had been sick for a long time which was one of the reasons...the main reason, I stopped posting. Nothing prepares you for when it actually happens. My mom. My best friend in the world. The one person who loved me like nobody ever did or ever will again...is gone. I lost my dad when I was 26 and it was bad but not like this. My mom had something to do with everything in my life including helping me 'pick out' Alex and Jackson. She always said 'that if we were any closer I'd still be inside of her' :razz: How on earth do you get through something like this? I know this is off topic but it's why I haven't been around. Alex and Jackson have been my only happiness since then but I haven't had the heart to post. Today my brother and I have to clean her stuff out. I don't know how I'm gonna do that. :cry:
I thank those who got in touch with me. It meant more than you know. And Claudia....THANK YOU for posting your prayers for ME on LL almost every day for a week. I was praying for you too.
That said, all p's are in order, Alex is wearing his purry pants and A&J are taking a little snooze.
Enjoy the rest of your day everyone :razz:
hugs~
