Today, Kitty completes 365 days since his last shot. After getting insulin for 15 months, he is now OTJ for a full year -- thanks to Lantus Land. flip_cat
Newbies, take heart! I see myself in all of you. When I first got here, I was overwhelmed, scared, afraid to hurt Kitty, afraid not to act. Kitty was getting 10 units ONCE a day, because the vet I trusted didn't know as much as he thought he did. Kitty almost died.
But then I found FDMB and LL, and these wonderful, generous people supported me, informed me, talked me through those late night high numbers (or late night low numbers!). And here we are, alive and well, even OTJ. (It's the alive and well that matters!)
So I want to thank every one of you who makes this site the saving grace for so many kitties. To everyone who didn't laugh at me for HC'ing a 75, to everyone who told me umpteen times what the protocol says, or who posted a picture of a fat .1 and kept me from going crazy measuring those doses, or who encouraged me as we went up the dosing scale, when we so badly wanted to go down...
THANK YOU. My Kitty is alive, and OTJ, because you shared your knowledge and your heart.
