Hi: I don't subscribe to the FML these days, but I'd like to ask you all to put in a little prayer for my little girl, Wompy. About 2 weeks ago, I found her darn near dead in shock from insulinoma. Here's my story: I had left her out to play for a while & when I went to check on her, she was really lethargic. I picked her up & she was limp. Needless to say, I got a tad bit upset. When I put her down, she tried to move, but her back legs wouldn't move. I started to cry like crazy & immediately called the doctor. Well, my doc was on another line & the one who picked up scared the hell outa me by telling me she was dying. He told me (obviously) to get her to an emergency hospital &, in the meantime, give her some honey or caro syrup. Of course, I couldn't find the honey, so I was near spastic by the time my doc called back. I finally found some honey & put some into her mouth. She was just lying on my bed drooling & barely breathing. But I put her in her traveler & took her to see Dr. Weiss in Potomac, MD. An hour later, when we arrived @ Dr. Weiss's office (thank you so much for sticking around & waiting for me!), she was up & running again. I was so happy I was almost hysterical. Well, anyway, this Friday, Wompers is going into surgery to remove tumors from her pancreas. If you could all say a little prayer for her, I'd really appreciate it. Wompers has always been a little miscreant, so she wasn't always too sociable w/ me - which was fine; I came to accept that - but I've come to find that I'd do anything for her to make sure she's ok. So, wish her luck this Friday morning. Thanks! Jeanette in VA [Posted in FML issue 1556]
