Zyuanok, putting links in forum signatures hasn't worked since before 2012. ;)

Anyway, some good news on my side for a change. :) Harley has started eating by herself finally, not much at the moment, but so far fairly consistently it seems.

Vet says that she has to eat by herself for a week, then they can take the feeding tube out, and I'll be able to bring her home.

So, looking good assuming she doesn't get all contrary again. :)

Yay, Harley! :bwave:


I don't know if this is available in your part of the world, but my cats are mad for it. If I so much as touch the shelf where I keep it, they will be instantly summoned, even if they were sound asleep and not in line of sight.

Oh, a change is coming, feel these doors now closing

Nah, not available here unfortunately. (Or just as well...) :)

Vet says if everything continues to go well, should have the tube out and her home, maybe even by Wednesday, so here's hoping.

Hooray Av! Be prepared for a very demanding lady in your house for a day or two and stiffen your resolve! All will be well.

Ha, it's gonna be more than a day or two...she probably still has at least 2 weeks to go in her bandages / frame / dressing, so it's going to be hand and foot throughout no doubt. :)

But, plan was to take the tube out today, and presuming she ate again without it in, I may be able to pick her up tomorrow. :)

So, I seriously was going to leave the Beddian birthday graphic up all year. But, why celebrate 2020 at this point?
There are better images to promote.

Congrats Menolly. :D

Me, I'm knackered. Nowhere near enough sleep these past few days.

On the plus side, my cat is looking a lot better already. :)

Congrats Menllly.

You and yours remain in our prayers.

Please give George a hug from me.

I could really use it right about now,

But social distancing. And Seattle

Seems distance enough.

I can't help with the distance between Texas and Washington State. But, as far as hugs and social distancing goes...

I don't need surgery. Kind of a weak follow up, but there you go. However, I do need 6-12 months of physical therapy. So far, I'm responding well to it.

I seem to have missed the start of this somewhere Khaliban, but never mind; whatever it is you're going through, head down and bulldozer through it! Power to you in so doing!

Khaliban has the rotator cuff blues :D

I guess that's good news then. You're a triathlete aren't you?

Yeah, that's good news. Rotator cuff surgery is never fun, and not always successful.

Just don't over-do it before it's healed. ;)

Menklly - thank you.

I have two rotator cuff tears. Getting cortisone
Shots for them July 2nd. I get them a couple times
A year. Had me in tears last week. And I'm walking
Around on an ankle that the doctors told me to get
Fixed last year. So you know I have a high tolerance
For pain. And a strong pain med threshold.
