We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Thanks, y'all!!

I just realized that I seem to be having my update photos taken every 55 pounds lost. That's been the distance between these first three sets, and I won't have another set of pics taken until my brother's wedding at the end of August, when I'm hoping to be down about another 55 pounds! (I'm figuring that the weightloss will start slowing down in a month or so, going from 5 pounds/week to 3-4.)

Kathy, awesome!

Thanks for the MK wishes. I know it seems goofy for this ancient of a cat in his condition, but my thing is if it is easily treatable, why not. If I'd been told organ failure or cancer or he'd not get back to normal, it would hurt but I'd head straight to Youth In Asia (as I heard it for so long.) If my old man can stay normal and happy after a day of treatment for timeline unknown, well, fuck my credit card.

Believe me, when today I thought it was a stroke, I was ready to let him go. Only the slight perkiness after sugar and utterly awfulness of MK confused( yeah, I couldn't deal with that) drove me to the vet, where I was expecting the worst.

I came uncomfortably close to letting him to die from something fixable today. Can't think about it too much.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

sarameg, no, you were ready to do the best thing for him if he needed it. That's ok.

You expected it would be unfixable because he's an old kitty, declining. It might not be. It's ok.

Oh, cereal, but I gotta go. Kathy, you look great! The thing I notice most about your face is that you look so happy.

Go you, Kathy!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oh, Kathy, that's downright amazing. Go you!

sarameg, here's hoping for the old man.

Apropos of nothing, hockey is killing me dead. I always want a blood pressure cuff so I can take it, say, during minute ten of overtime of a playoff elimination game. I don't think this level of self-induced stress is healthy for me. Anyway, go Blackhawks!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Kathy, you're making fantastic progress! Go you!

Wow Kathy. Congrats!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Congratulations, Kathy. You do just look so happy. It's wonderful.

If my old man can stay normal and happy

Yes. Hope he bounces right back with the treatment.
