Peg got out today and is bonding with her cats. She liked her psychiatrist and will be keeping him-so that will give us occasional visits to Fayetteville. She's a bit hypomanic and short on sleep, but hopefully being back in her own bed will hep that ( Read more... )

Peg attempted suicide with an overdose of Xanex (58 of them-we had just refilled it) on Wednesday night. Thankfully she realized that even with how bad her struggle is that she didn't want to die and came and told me. We were at the ER for 19 hours until we finally found a psych hospital with room for her. She likes it far better than the other ( Read more... )

Well, today we went to the Geneticist and found out that not only does Peg have Ehlers-Danlos; but Kit and I do also. I now know the reason for the years of horrid pain I've dealt with and basically been told my doctors is either in my mind or I can just deal with, is a connective tissue thing caused by some amusing genetics and I managed to share ( Read more... )

We just saw the neurologist and found that Peg has lesions on her frontal lobe and also some atrophy. The lesions can either be from bad blood vessals or MS. Not sure how long till our next stage in finding out. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

Kit and I just finished removing a young possum from the living room. Agatha had been going crazy all morning, barking at the record cabnet. I removed the boxes from under it and she kept after it. Finally Kit and I put her outside and got the flashlight and found a possum back against the wall behind it. It took us 20 minutes or so of ( Read more... )

I just had to share, the puppies are so cute. They have a little teething chewbone that has holes on the ends to put treats in. I got a can of liver paste, it squirts like spray cheese, and put some in the holes at the end. The puppies are laying on the floor across from each other, each with a pay on the bone, licking their end of the chewbone ( Read more... )

Happiness is a sweet (old) kitten curled up on your chest, two puppies, and the rest of the menagerie. I got home tonight from taking Kit out for dinner and was welcomed by the whole gang ( Read more... )
