Having a Horrible Time

766 Driving In Heavy Rain On A Highway Stock Photos, High ...

And a little later, the cramps kicked in…

Well, I didn’t return yesterday evening, did I? Just as we were about to have supper, the vet called to summon me immediately to the special veterinary hospital, state-of-the-art, sit there for hours…

And the bottom line is, there isn’t much that they can do, other than hit us up for great gobs of money. I had to leave Robbie there overnight for more tests and a “consultation” sometime today.

Thunderstorm and torrential downpour on my way home. Think that slows up Jersey drivers on the highway? It’s just a challenge to them.

Painful cramps woke me up three times last night.

As for what today holds, I have absolutely no idea. I’ll try to do as much of my work as I can: better than sitting around fretting and fuming.

  1. Oh, I’m sorry about all that. I know how maddening that stuff is. Prayers continue.

  2. When I faced major health issues with a truly beloved feline, the ultimate comfort was that I had given her a great life. She went from being a stray, living on the streets in an area overrun with dogs and coyotes. When I took her in, it was like winning the lottery, and she was as devoted to me as a cat can possibly be.

    You’ve done you best, Lee. That’s all you can do.

    Prayers sent.

    1. Damnit, though! There’s almost nothing left of my family: everybody’s either died or moved far, far away (it seemed like a good idea at the time). So it was Pattyk and Robbie and me, period, no mas.

  3. Mousekin again. We are your family; all your Christian readership. We are all family because we love the Lord. So sorry about Robbie, but if he’s suffering, he needs to rest. He enjoyed a wonderful life with you. Such a beautiful cat. Pets are a part of the family and we grieve for them. This will not be easy, but the Lord will carry you, He will strengthen you. Your Christian family is praying for you and Patty and Robbie. You are not alone.

    1. Thank you so much for that!
      Before we had cats, we had pet mice. You would hardly believe how much it hurt to lose one of them.
