Hi all. Well, some good news to report I guess. Artemus went back in today, to get his level's checked - and the good new? He was up to a "20" (from 9 last week). He has made a "miraculous" bounce back - but we are still not out of the woods yet. His anemia and the cause of it - still have not been determined. All we know is that he is again, now producing red blood cells, and if all my prayers will be anwered, he will continue. Now we keep him on the pred, and the other stuff - and he goes in again, in a week from now. The vet did caution me that he is NOT out of the woods yet, but that he was making pretty remarkable progress. I agreed with her. On Friday - he was so wiped out he didn't fight us too much giving him his meds. Today however, when he saw me heading for the fridge - he lit out like someone lit a fire under his furry behind. Ya think THAT should've warned me right? Yeah. Right. So - I finally corral him - it took 3 of us to scruff, hold, and medicine push - and he ripped us all to pieces tryin to get away......when he couldn't get a way, - he decided it would be nice if he "shared" the medicine with us!!! Sharing Artemus = Spitting-rasberry blowing Artemus.......I always thought I looked good in pink ensure........*winks* Thank you all for your prayers. Please keep them coming - we will need them with the upcoming weeks. To those again who have lost your fuzzies, or have sick ones - you are ALL at the top of my prayer list. God Bless you and yours! Kim and her missing one, recovering one, ADDING new one, and Ricki...Army of idiots... Lord, help me to be grateful for what I have, and not greedy for what I want..... [Posted in FML issue 5118]
