Hi Tracy! Just got your email. Glad to see your reading this thingy and I sure do appreciate it. You are truly one of the bestest friends I could ever ask for. Love you.
Today is the day we take Felix to the specialist. I talked to the Vet today and she said he has I low white cell count (from Monday's labs) and some other thingymagiggy that could mean either infection or inflammation, but she doesn't want to start on antibiotics since he's being seen by specialist today. Also because he didn't have a high temperature. I told her (Dr. Sandra Statter, DVM) that I never thought about veterinarians having specialties. She said they have almost as many as humans (no pediatrics...I asked). The specialist we are going to is Dr. Franklin, Internal Medicine. I'm trying to have a nice mix of optimism and acquiescence. I so so love my first born Felix, my little cheese head skunk. We cuddled all night last night, and he is so happy and purring that I know he isn't in any pain right now.
Work is work is work. Not much going on here today. I was a zombie all morning, but now I've had Diet Cherry Coke, Mountain Dew, a huge cup of Chai and a huge cup of super strong Sumatra blend, I'm alert enough. I'm having the last of my first homemade from scratch crock pot beef stew. We are already going to do shredded beef tonight. This one is even more home made since we aren't even going by a recipe.
Word(s) of the day: DUNDERHEAD
Lexie Log: The recent illness has messed up her sleep schedule again. More sleep during the day and not so much at night. At least this time we know better how to fix it. -- Last nights dinner was peas and chicken raviolli. She still drinks exclusively milk and water. She won't touch juice. I feel like I hardly saw her yesterday since she napped on and off all day while I was at work, and I napped as soon as I got home.
Today I'm grateful for Frank and Lexie, crock pots, plants, paper, satin, red, staplers, scissors, plastic, and smiles.
