She has five or six specialists looking after her. I think they all look at different things, according to their own specialty. Sometimes it's hard to parse all the things the various doctors are saying, even though I have a pretty good command of medicalese at this point. I'm going to stick with the signs of improvement we've been seeing, for now.
Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Sean, again sorry and angry that S and you are going through this. Thanks so much for the updates.
Sean, I'm so sorry for you and S. Continued thoughts and ~ma to you both.

My dad hated playing Pictionary against my mom and me. Seriously, one of us could just draw a line and the other would guess it right away. He'd grab the "drawing" and be like WTF? It's a single LINE!! Ha!
So I just got back from an emergency vet visit. Percy seemed better,and they was worse. he got fluids, they are doing a full blood panel. ...and they'll make another guess. Today I get to stay home and watch the cat. Who is hiding under the bed. Seriously, I just want a clear sign.
MA~~~~ to S and extra strength for you, Sean
percy came out from under the bed and had some water
more cat updates forthcoming if no one else talks
More ~ma for Sean and S. I'm glad the friends kicked in.
I hope they figure out what's wrong with Percy soon, beth. Pet ~ma for Percy, and Mooshu too, while I'm at it.
sj, Kara wants to call you. Will you email your phone number and a time it's convenient?
um. There is an app for the iPhone/iTouch called "SnatchTest". Apparently it has NOTHING to do with what the name conjures.
My kitty pals Binky, momo, and Casper send ~ma to Percy!
Percy ~ma headed his way. In Mooshu news, he's still not wanting to eat, but is continuing to drink and at least licked the remnants of my yogurt from the container this morning. It's a start.
I did some research and it looks like a 1:1 mixture of vinegar and distilled water is a good treatment-- another site recommended using Nizoral shampoo on the affected area. It's a shampoo that used to only be available by prescription, but now it's OTC and the key ingredient is the same as one of the antibiotics he's taking.
Deena, insent. I'd love to hear from Kara.
Kitty-ma to Percy.
