Glad to hear the good news about Grace, Nina! More power to her paw! By the way, you said it for me...Your first para cd have come from me. (I think it must be a collective thing---I've noticed my daily emails have gone from 90-something to approx 10!) Kerry

Just to many things on my plate. I feel like no matter how early I get up, or how late I go to bed, I still can't get done what needs to be done. Looking at the state of my house, you'd assume I was sitting on my butt eating bon bons and watching TV. Grace's vet visit yesterday went really well, at least as far as the trauma involved. She was such a good girl! My Internist gave her a thorough physical exam, and except for the fact that she's lost 2 lbs and her eyes were unevenly dilated, she said she looks really good, (her breathing is fine, no swollen lymph nodes, etc.). She couldn't tell if Grace still has a heart murmur, because she was purring too loud to hear her heart properly! What an angel my Gracie is. The Internist said we could do blood work, but unless there's a problem with one of her organs, which neither one of us thinks there is, it wouldn't show anything conclusive. She suggested putting her on Baytril, sent me home with subq fluids, (even though she's not dehydrated), and Dex shots, (just in case). She also gave me some samples of novel protein dry foods for Grace to try, (she's not eating and she's always liked dry food, so what the heck). I'm trying to finish up the questionnaire from the holistic practitioner, so we can get started on that. Grace did eat a bit last night and seems to have a renewed desire to fight. I feel more hopeful this morning. I just gave her her first dose of Baytril, syringed some babyfood, colostrum and Nutrical down her, (not enough, the darn syringe stuck and I put too much pressure on it so it exploded food all over my hand), and put some transdermal Cypro on her ear. I think her belly is bothering her, so I may try a 1/4 Pepcid later. Love and prayers to all those in trouble, and those of you who aren't as well! Nina <hr> IRS CIRCULAR 230 NOTICE.
