Hi everyone,
I will try to keep this short and sweet...
I love you all and miss being here the way I'd like. I have guilt for not being the person I intend to be when I am well.
Ruben is doing good. I love him more each day < actually kinda scares me how much I love him. :smile:
His numbers have been good. He is however losing a little but of weight. I'm chalking that up to the diet change. All 5 p's are in place, tho last few days not eating his food unless I sprinkle treats on it, then he eats just the top layer and waits for more...ugh. I just ordered some foriflora < any suggestions on how to give and how much?
I called the vet and asked aobut Max Cal and she suggested I bring him in to check for hyperthyroidism just to be safe.(going next Tues. trying not to be a anxious mess.) He doesn't seem to have any of the symtoms she described, but better safe than sorry.
Maple has been sick, their not sure with what, but had her at ER yesterday and she is now quarintined in my room for 48hrs as to not spread it to Ruben. Vomiting, diarrhea and had slight fever. She got fluids, full blood work up (unremarkable) and urinalysis-again seems normal. They think some viral or bacterial infection. (not sure how tho, she doesn't go out) She is much better today but still no poo....oh the fun poo detective game..lol
Me- I am having a hard time adjusting to work. My neurological disorder is not under control yet. Lost my sence of smell the other day <that was scary, back now tho. Medicine makes me super tired and after working til 7pm most nights, I take my meds and hit the hay. I know these are excuses, but
I will never forget how wonderful you all are here. And I will forever be grateful for saving Ruben from traditional vet med and essentially saving his life.
I want to be the person I know I can be to here. I miss my daily Grace diary and all the antics of my kitty friends. I am working on re-prioritizing my time to allow myself to take a moment and be here more often. I feel good when I do and that can only help my symptoms.
Well I'm off to check on you kitties and your beans, I may not comment on everyone's condo but I will be sending vines to all and extra to those who need a little more.
Thank you (((FDMB))). LIfe savers!
