Hi everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful thanksgiving! I have no clue what's going on in the FML, except for Meeteese leaving for the Bridge after her long struggle. I caught it when I went to Kat's page for a visit. I am so sorry, Suki. You guys went the whole nine yards together. My little Fang is still hanging in there. It will be a year in Feb. since his pancreatectomy. A recent BG test came in at a low 45, so he is back on pred. I am hoping he can stay with the 1/2 ml. once a day, since his last reading was a 74. His liver reading was too high last week, so a nodulectomy is not a possibility right now. I have him back on the non-alcoholic Milk Thistle drops that Troy Lynn suggested. I am also still giving the Devil's Club, even though, by itself, it did not prevent the need for pediapred. He still will only eat Bob's Gravy . (spoiled snot to the max). I am now only 49 issues behind. <sigh> The older I get, the faster the time goes. I wanted to publically thank Kat for the incredible job she did making a page for my poem, "Blessings". Fuzzy Dad, Ron Carter added his two cents with his music selection of "If Tomorrow Never Comes". What a tearjerker the page is, but please go to Kat's sight and check it out; she did an AWESOME job! She did it in time for Thanksgiving, as all our babies on the FML are blessings in our lives. I am making an effort to submit some poems I've had lying around waiting to get finished, before Bryan's deadline. I hope to catch up with the things you have been sharing; I've missed your posts. For now...an offering of a little light poem: "Gimme Kiss" Gimme kiss, but hurry up! lemme see what's in the cup! Coffee! Yuck! I wanted pop! lemme down, don't make me stop! Wait! I have to stop and itch! off I go, direction which? I'm up, I'm down, I'm on the run; gotta play, and have some fun! I'm a fuzzy, don'tcha know! so gimme kiss, and lemme go! by Liz Blackburn [Posted in FML issue 3248]
