Well, here we go again, it's a wonder any of us have any fingernails left! Yesterday while petting Jazzy, I felt a strange 'cartilage-like' lump on her throat. It doesn't seem to bother her to touch it and she's eating and swallowing fine. She had a hard lump on her forehead when she was little that just went away as she grew. I'm hoping it's nothing to worry about. I've made an appointment at my vet's for her. Please say a prayer that it turns out to be nothing to be concerned over. I woke up crying this morning thinking about the possibility of losing her and the futility of fighting so much disease. Sometimes I get so tired of dealing with illness. I shouldn't complain, I have had so much success and so many blessings. While I was crying into my husband's shoulder, he gently reminded me that, of course, everything dies, how we've given them a loving, happy home, and how the odds that they'd still be here without us are slim to say the least. When I'm worried about losing my babies, those arguments, while valid, just don't bring that much comfort.
On the brighter side, Gypsy is doing so much better! She still has the IBD symptoms, but she's eating better, and she's using the litter box less often. Now, if she'd just firm up those poops and put on some weight!
Thanks for caring, Nina
