I stopped by the vets office last night after work. Come to find out she has been off. That would explain the lack of a response to my email and to the mail order pharmacy. However, she is back today. I left a message and also followed up with an email. I was promised a response today. It’s a few minutes after 3p and thus far no response. I anticipate that I will hear something later this evening. If that isn’t the case I will be really disappointed and also pissed. Patience is a virtue and something I don’t have, good thing I’m not a doctor.
I got quite the scare this morning. Momma acted like she was losing her appetite and wasn’t interested in food at all. I had to coax her and really push to get her to eat. Thankfully it worked. I hope that she was just being stubborn and this isn’t a sign of things to come. While I am told they can miss up to 4 meals total and that is when you should panic. I panic when they miss just 1 meal. Everyone is eating and I am thankful for that.
Momma looked like today was a bit of a struggle so I picked out a slightly larger pill for her, in the hopes it would drain more fluid and make her feel better. Fluid is still pooling in her body but it’s not to a major point yet. She does appear to be larger, but when you pick her up she weights around the same 5 pounds.
We spent time together last night and once again I got to the point where I was nodding off so I had to wake her up and put her in bed so that I could go to bed. I held off for as long as I could but still wound up waking up in the middle of the night. I’d love to sleep 8 full hours straight, like a deep relaxing and refreshing kind of sleep. I don’t know that will happen while I have a worry or at least a concern on my mind.
I’ve got a meeting with the boss man in a bit. It’s just a touch point kind of thing that we do once a month so he can voice any issues/concerns and I can do the same. It’s usually a 5 to 10 minute call where we go off topic because there is hardly ever anything to discuss.
The weather is a ugly story. It had iced over night but thawed a little bit and the road crews did an okay job. It was raining on the drive in and you had to keep an eye out for ice, but I didn’t encounter any. The drive home will be rain turning to snow and that will happen during the commute. So it will probably take a little longer to get home, unless people panic and leave early. There are a fair number of closings so that will help ease traffic. It’s supposed to snow overnight as well so tomorrow could be a work from home day for me. I’d kind of like that, you eliminate the commute and it gives me 2 hours back to start my weekend early. It’s a wait & see situation.
That’s all I know for now. I’m sure I will have more news tomorrow. Stay warm, be safe and we will talk again soon. I appreciate you stopping by!
