Hi, 
I hope Bramble is feeling somewhat better today. I don't know if you posted or someone else about your kitty having a hot head and ears with a normal rectal temp..I have a 14 yr old that does this all the time..It is his blood pressure...When it is elevated, his ears are red and his head is really hot...with a normal temp..You might ask about that..
Also, my Bandy is on oxazepam .1ml transdermal twice daily for an appetite stimulant..
Hope this is of some help..
We will keep you and Bramble in our prayers..
Kerry R. and Bandy

Oh Michelle,
I hope somehow you are wrong and Bramble's just especially down today.  
Go ahead and cry, you certainly have cause.  If your intuition is right 
and Bramble is too tired to keep fighting...  I so hope that's not the 
case.  You've done so much more than most would have to bring him back 
to health.  I love that picture you sent of the two of you, it really 
says it all.  I've thought of it several times yesterday and today and 
it's always brought a smile to my face, there's so much love between the 
two of you.  Keep your heart and intuition open to that amazing boy of 
yours, you'll know what to do, even if you are drowning in a sea of 
tears.  Bramble understands.  Please know you are in my thoughts and 
prayers.

Much love to you and all your babies,
Nina
