but it's already Monday morning here and I am thinking of you and little Peatrie. I am hoping and praying she will be fine coming through the op. and that the cost can also be reduced.
Sending many ((((hugs))))) to you because I know how worried you will be. This is going to be very hard until it is over and you can see that she will do fine. Cats are like Potato Chips - you can't have just one
I just got home. Poor thing. I opted for the surgery I guess. I hope I chose the right thing.
Without the bone may not have healed or joined, and then surgery would have been harder in her cause they’’d have to clear away that new bone growth. And she would not been able to flex that leg at all. So I said to do it.
She was so good, my poor baby. They will call me when she goes in to surgery. And when she’s out.
Estimated cost is a little better. 3400-3800, but I have to pay fir xrays after 4 weeks... so total around 4000 on high end. I just want her well. She’s going to have that dum collar thing when she gets home. I hate that, I’ll restrict her to my walk in closet, no where to jump.
If all goes well, I pick her up at 10 tomorrow. If they can’t do surgery today due to any emergencies, I’m bringing her home for the night or as soon as I can. I just want this done and her better.
Putting your little kitties quality of life as top priority!! If I had extra, I would donate something(things are tight)! I send more positive thougts, prayers to you, little kitty and those caring for her!! Please take care and be good to yourself also!! Healing and prayers!!! I have thought about you am since this happened. Has Peatrie been kind of not in pain???? Gentle strokes for all kitties along with hugs for you and husband!!!! Love those who are with you today.....purrsss, Remember those from previously...mewz
Now, take care of yourself. I hope your feeling ok.
I mean those things I say...ms

I feel your and Peatrie's pain...... for real!!! I live with a lot of pain and now fear, so really understand!!!! Big time ..... I am so verbal, as I am stuck inside with lots of time to read and post!! Feels like house arrest!!!! I have no white blood cells. Am under strict orders to stay in (not in bed) and away from sick people. Safest place is my apartment. Thank God I have my kitties for company!!!! Best to you with your loved Peatrie!!! Thank you for your comments, despite your situation...!!!! I think I need to bribe the no cancer spirit!! This is until the end of Oct IF there are no delays and there have already been delays!!!! I will get through this but it is hard....I am now bald!!! Also heartbroken, I loved my hair!!!Love those who are with you today.....purrsss, Remember those from previously...mewz
I’m glad you have your kitties for love and company. It’s hard being stuck in, but better to be safe.
I don’t know how you get your groceries if you can’t go out. But keep in mind many places deliver now, kinda like Peapod is an example. So if you can’t handle it yourself keep that in mind.
Don’t worry about your hair, though easier said than done. I know I’d be upset too. It will grow back in time. This is just temporary. Get yourself a nice wig if you need one or there’s lots of nice head wraps that look modern and stylish if you go out.
I know the road seems endless but keep positive, look ahead, say prayers and it will all be fine.
Thanks for caring. Looking forward to Peatrie coming home today.
and you are right!! Thankfully, I have some in home assistance provided by the govt. One of my aides is excellent!!! She is on it before I even run out of stuff!!! We have become really good friends over the ten years she has worked for me. I have another who is good at taking me to the hospital, which is weekly and always offering to run errands. That one lives in the building and we are good friends. I am so grateful for these two people. The case manager, social worker just sees I get excellent care and lets us carry on!!!! I am fortunate in so many ways and realize it!!! Also I live in a small building and the neighbors all know me, been here 15 years!!!!! So I can find somebody to chat with. I also have to really watch who comes in as well as the getting out. I go out into the halls and see friends once in awhile!!! The kitties need a break from me!!!! I hope tomorrowrrow morning is here quick, that Peatrie slept good at the vets and you do also. I like the walk in closet idea with lights to see,, you are so considerate of your furred ones!!!! Yes, a cat will disregard the safety measure and walk on the top. My thoughts are with you, it is hard to have an ill one we love....hardere than being sick oneself!!! Can you go in and sit with her for spells of time?? I bet you will and be with her every chance you can!! Best, thoughts and prayers for your little family!!!! gentle hugs!!! I do have a couple of turbans and a wig.....the hospital Chas a lot of supportive services for those with this and have been very good to me!!!! Thank you for your nice comments and words of encouragement!!!! These drs are going to make3 me into a germ-phobe yet!!!!! I do not make a good patient!!!!! Thank SPRING!!!!Love those who are with you today.....purrsss, Remember those from previously...mewz
Support you need. That certainly is a big plus. You have a good attitude too, which is another plus. Everything will work out.
I’m in here with Peatrie 24/7. Only come out to use the bathroom, unless Dave stands in for me for an hour maybe. Otherwise it’s me and Peatrie. I did not want her to have that stupid cone in her head. So uncomfortable. And I don’t want the cage, no room to move. She’s pretty content in here, but until stitches are out in 10-14 dats I must be sure she doesn’t lick them. No sleep for me. I catnap, but as she feels better and it hurts less, not sure how I can do it cause she’ll be more apt to luck.
One day at a time, just like you have to do, take care.
Peatrie is so fortunate to have such a caring and loving humans!!! Please you and husband take care of yourselves also!!! You are really devoted cat humans!!! I havè a lot of respect for that!!! The one day at a time thing is hard to get used to!! Think Spring!!! Healing thoughts and prayers to Peatrie and humans!!!!Love those who are with you today.....purrsss, Remember those from previously...mewz
