The coordination exhibited by the medical profession, or at least their ability to communicate that they are capable of it, seems to be lacking in examples here of late. Sigh.
Yay having a real!live!book! Made of paper and chemicals and ink and your lovely ideas and words! in your hands, Allyson.
We need to seriously track down Kat's understudy and make her adhere to the contract already. No fair going awol now.
Work is making me cranky. I keep making stupid little mistakes, largely due to poor instructions or explanations. So, partly my fault, partly larger.
Yay, Grace!
In less good medical news, the vet spoke to us tonight after Teddy got his fluids. They're now talking days.
It's at the point where they can't treat one problem without making another one worse. They cut his fluids from 250 daily to 150 to ease his anemia. But that'll make his kidney values worse.
We're continuing to do what we can for him. But it doesn't look like long now.
I'm glad I took several days off last week. I got to spend time with him and say everything to him that I wanted to say.
We visited the local pet cemetery over the weekend to make arrangements. Hubs wanted the casket designed for human babies and not animals. The cemetery folks said that'd take about a week. Looked then like we had time. Now I'm not so sure.
So far, I'm bearing up. Hubs is falling apart.
I'm sorry for the crappy medical day, ita.
Glad Grace is out of surgery, Kat, and that it went okay.
Today, for me, failed to be anywhere near as irritating as it could have been.
Are we sure it's really Monday?
eta: I am so sorry, Fred.
I'm so sorry, Fred. Give hugs to both Teddy and Hubs from me.
{{Fred Pete, Hubs, and Teddy}}}
Oh no. I'm glad you're holding up right now, but don't forget to let yourself fall apart a little bit at some point. Hugs to you all.
Aw, Fred. Sorry to hear it. Wish I could be there to give you both hugs.
Oh, Fred. I've been where you are. No words, just as much ease as you can manage.
You loved well, and Teddy had a life I often wake up and wish for (dude! no work, lots of sleep, as much attention and affection as I want, free food!) You did right.
Oh, Fred, I'm so sorry. I wish I could give y'all more time with Teddy.
