OK, bed for me. Hip still hurts like hell. I was to have MRIs of L ankle and R hip. Ankle went OK, but I panicked re: hip. It was an open MRI, but my face had to be under that big contraption, and stuff near my face sets off fierce claustrophobia.

thanks. It is what it is. I see orthopaedist on the 24th. We(primary doc and I) had hoped to get an MRI in advance, and I really wanted to be successful, but I just could not. During the ankle MRI, I kept stroking my forearm to calm myself; that would not be possible for the hip MRI. I also staved off boredom by making alphabetical lists—cities, trees (couldn't think of one that starts with D, oh, Douglas Fir!).

9:47 am
carleekat

9:47 am
IndiaJan

I have never had a problem before 9 on weekdays..i left home this morning at 830 and was home by 10
9:48 am

9:48 am
IndiaJan

Its worth every penny
9:48 am
carleekat

9:52 am
IndiaJan

9:52 am
carleekat

hmmm i brough 160 over and they let me go the other day
9:53 am
IndiaJan

Yeah..its a crapshoot at that amount tho..i have gotten thru with as much as 200 but i have been sent in with 120 as well..depends on who the agent is I guess
9:54 am
carleekat

i guess.. I bought dog food, cat food... 2 pair of shoes and some groceries
9:54 am

My feeling is MM will have to let it come to the floor for a vote considering he wants Lisa to run for Gov and she needs marriage equality folks to win the nom since Quinn is a big backer
7:05 pm

Heya Ms. hurshy
11:37 pm
hurshy

my extremely beloved cat marty will be dying sometime in the next few months. right now we are giving him "hospice" care at home, he's responding well and eating again. when that changes, we'll be putting him to sleep.
11:38 pm
Christine

So sorry for your bad news, Hurshy. Give him a soft kiss from us.
11:38 pm
gapeach

Oh, hurshy, I am so sorry.
11:38 pm
hurshy

thanks.
11:39 pm
smores

Finished!!!!
11:39 pm
smores

{{ hurshy }} so sorry
11:41 pm
smores

is this the same one you were concerned about losing weight a couple months ago?
11:41 pm
hurshy

yes. the weight loss turns out to have been associated with his kidneys starting to fail.
11:43 pm
rururocks

are you giving him fluids hursh?
11:43 pm
hurshy

kidney issues are very common in cats but not one i expected him to fall prey to this early, as he's always been very fond of water. but one of his kidneys is very small and probably non-functional, so if he was born with it that way, perhaps that is WHY he was always so fond of water, he felt he needed more of it.
11:43 pm
torgone

He'll be remembered in song ..
11:44 pm
hurshy

yes, we're doingng a subcutaneous daily fluid treatment.
11:44 pm
rururocks

that's all you can do then
11:44 pm
rururocks

been there
11:45 pm
Uneaixoise

so sorry, hursh . . . I well remember doing the fluid treatment for my cocker many years ago . . .
11:46 pm
hurshy

at least it seems like there is not much pain or suffering associated with kidney failure.
11:46 pm
gapeach

It hurts so bad. I had a little poodle-pom mix that lived to be almost 18 years.....I kept him alive two months longer than I should have - codine. He was with me through a very bad time in my life....OK, I'll shut up now.
11:47 pm
gapeach

Scrabbler lost one of her bunnies on the same day, May 10th.
11:48 pm
hurshy

yes, it's especially hard with marty because we formed a very strong pair bond immediately the first day he came to me at 6 weeks old. he's always been madly in love with me, demanding lots of love from me, which i have happily given.
11:49 pm
hurshy

i have two other cats and it's really weird to think that sometime soon we won't have all three.
11:51 pm
gapeach

He will always be in your heart, hurshy.
11:51 pm
hurshy

that he will.
