Kristin, Byron is going to be uncomfortable for a little while, and he may be grumpy, but he's also going to be so relieved and happy to see his beloved human. As scared as you are, you'll be able to do it because you love him and will be a comfort to him.
Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Kristin-I've known several tripod cats and they all were totally at ease with it and got exactly around like their more-legged brethren.

Thank you. And I meant to say earlier to everyone that I don't need any more brackets and don't want to continue to dominate the thread--I just know many of you wanted updates and thought I would give them here. Please don't feel that you have to reassure me over and over.
Thank you everyone for your love and support. I'll let you know how he's doing when I get him home. These first few days are going to be the hardest and more heart-breaking, but I have to remember that he's going to recover and be his loving self again soon.

Kristin, we care about you and we care about Byron. Please continue to update us. I know it will be easier on both of you when he is home being loved.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Kristin, you'll do great. Also, you have a nice little nest for him to come home to.

Well shit. I'm at the Red Cross and can't donate due to low iron. And of course they pick today to tell me my blood type (O-, neg some other factor) is typically used for kids with cancer, so I feel doubly bad.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I tend to have oddly high iron. Consistently a bit above the "normal" range. I've asked my doctors about it a few times, and none of them had any answer other than, "That's weird."

I really don't want to be out here at sea right now. I want to be home with Kristin and my kitty.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Go Gloomcookie, universal donor! It's not your fault your iron is low.
