Sissy has started eating pretty normally again this morning; she's still grinding her teeth a bit but seeing her eat is a huge relief. She drank a lot of water this morning too, which she needed. It looks like a broad spectrum antibiotic was exactly what the doctor ordered.
Ianto, otoh, had a moderately severe seizure Friday evening, only a couple of hours after getting his meds and shortly after eating. He's getting increasingly difficult to medicate as well. The Lupron shot he got a few weeks ago has definitely helped him regrow his fur, but I'm worried about risking more seizures with trips to the vet for monthly shots. Not really sure what to do about that, wondering if the vet would teach me how to administer the shots and let me buy the Lupron and do it at home. I'm less worried about his losing hair than I am about his prostate enlarging and causing urinary obstructions. But in general, his quality of life is still there so we hold on. He's very happy and affectionate in his own non-cuddling way most of the time.
Yesterday I had a massage, went to Redbones for lunch and then went to my parents' house for dinner to see them and my brother and crematia13 and little nephew Timothy, who even in just a week's time is so much better at standing. I bet it's not long before he's walking.
Dancing at the Middle East tonight, 9:30pm! Hanging around for drinks and dancing later as well. John's a great DJ, it's like having Garabed back again!
