Sorry, Denise. I just needed to take a day or so and be quiet. I've been dealing with the pain and exhaustion that follow any busy holiiday or weekend and Thanksgiving was no exception. I've noticed over the past several days that my right hand is very swollen and painful again so I need to back off and take it easy. As for the kids, yeah, surprisingly, everybody's doing pretty well. Cricket's lump between his shoulder blades is almost gone........it's now smaller than a pea. But the one on his right side is huge and seems to be painful. And Ken's taking Chicory to the vet today for another "adjustment." But he seems to be doing better also. -- Piggy's Pad

There you are my Dear!! I too was getting worried about you......
Did the Vet check the larger lump the other day on Cricket? I'm glad the other one has gone down but doesn't sound like the other one is from the injections then if it hasn't become smaller?? How does Chicory handle the "adjustments" ??
Hope you are catching up on some much needed rest too Sandy.....the Holidays can be fun but sometimes I think they can also be just a bit too much!! (NT) -- Kate, 9:41:44 am, Tue, 11/27/07
kate, the newest lump is from the last injection he got. And we haven't been back for an injection since, since they usually last oh, about 3 to 3 1/2 weeks. But I had told the vet about it when I went in to pay Chicory's bill last week. It took the first lump about 3 months to go back down. Chicory seems to handle the adjustments okay. He stays pretty quiet afterwards for a day or so. But I talked with Ken a little while ago and he said that Chicory isn't walking too well today. The appointment is at 2:30 so I'll check back with him shortly before we head for pool. I'm still just really concerned about the neurological factor here with his back legs. And Re-Re's so darn mellow that the normal tests (dragging their feet against the table lip to see if they place their feet) don't work with him. Re-Re just lays there and let's you place him any way you want. (NT) -- Sandy, 11:08:48 am, Tue, 11/27/07
Lots of prayers coming for your babies, Sandy!!!! {{HUGS}} for you, mom! (NT) -- V~, 9:16:02 pm, Tue, 11/27/07
Ugh, I am so sorry you are dealing with so much pain. With me, it's my legs.... hips, knees, ankles and feet. With me on my feet all day at work, I come home hobbling around like an old woman! Luckily I don't work too many 12-hour days.... mostly half days. Had a 12-hour yesterday tho, and I could barely move when I got home!! (NT) -- V~, 9:17:18 pm, Tue, 11/27/07
I hope you feel better by now hon.......... Don't overdo it at pool!! (NT) -- V~, 9:17:39 pm, Tue, 11/27/07
Well, I hope you are feeling better by now. THe therapy I am doing for my 3 bulging discs is actually starting to work. I can stand up and walk longer now. I've heard some very good reports on acupuncture so that may be a great option. (NT) -- Ramona, 2:30:41 pm, Wed, 11/28/07
