Downside: Meltie is now on amoxi and cranberry since she began bleeding from her urethra tonight. Fortunately, when I checked her kidneys she said "Oh, I LIKE this back rub, Mom. I'll even stttttrrrrreeeeeeeettccchhhh for you." Upside: Meltie has her 8th Christmas tree all set up. She REALLY loves the twinkle lights and was very happy about them. Glad we got the time to do it. (BTW, 'Chopper is pointing out everything blue on the tree again this year. Remember last year she would steal EVERY blue bauble within reach but leave all the rest? Either she sees blue or she loves neutrals.) Sukie [Posted in FML issue 1787]
