Sorry for the "hit and run," Kate, but I'm exhausted. I just talked with her and as I expected, she's crying. The rehab staff had just left her room after fitting her with some kind of brace for her knee..........I wasn't sure exactly what she's talking about. Said the pain is a 175 on a 1 to 100 scale with lots of phantom pain. I don't think she's fully grasped and understood the situation yet but when she does, there's going to be major depression to deal with. I just feel pulled in many different directions and it's wearing me out. -- Piggy's Pad

Other updates: I missed Snowy and Cricket's Gotcha Day on Monday........it's been 4 years already. Cricket and Biscuit are going to the vet this afternoon........Cricket needs his depo shot and Biscuit has a kitty cold. He's been sneezing a lot and I want to catch it before he gives it to everybody else. And Chicory went to the vet yesterday for a glucose check. It was 93......which is damn near perfect!!! Ken said he saw Chicory RUN down the hallway the other day and he can't remember the last time he saw Chicory run!! And damn it all anyway..........it's SNOWING AGAIN. We're already 12 inches over normal for this year. Enough, already!! (NT) -- Sandy, 12:46:51 pm, Thu, 02/21/08
4 years for Snowy and Cricket??!! WOW!!! Happy Belated "Gotcha Day" to your all!!!!!
oh and Sandy, what wonderful news for Chicory....I'm so glad to hear he is doing so well....
Hope Biscuit made out ok at the Vets? Is everything ok with his cold? (NT) -- Kate, 9:05:42 am, Fri, 02/22/08
Yup, Kate. Thanks for asking. Biscuit's fine. But what used to be my little baby weighed in at a humongus 12 pounds. He's no little kitty any longer, that's for sure. (NT) -- Sandy, 11:41:50 am, Fri, 02/22/08
That must be so hard for her...I'm glad she came through the surgery ok...but as you said, the depression she will have to deal with will be unimaginable.....my prayers are with her.... (NT) -- Kate, 9:03:22 am, Fri, 02/22/08
