update on kizzykat

the vet called me this am with some good news . kizzykat is lifting her head and meowing.he thinks she had reaction to the prednsione i was giving her for her arthritis. she was on prednsione 2.5mg, every other day and i wasn't sure how much she was getting because sometimes she ate it and sometimes she didn't. she hated the taste... so i brought her to the vet monday for a shot of sloumedrol and i didn't give her a dose of predsione monday because she got the shot of solumedrol. i figured i didn't have to give it to her anymore. well , tuesday morning i found out the dangers of prednisone . i did this to her. i didn't even know it ... and she still isn't out of the woods completely... but she's better..

i know i am a RN and i should know better wih prednisone. the vet took her to his home last night because she couldn't be left alone. isn't he a wonderful vet? i was worried about her all night being alone in the clinic all night and he had her at his house. i could hug that vet and i will.

well your prayers are working and my kizzykat is doing better. she will be there for 3 or 4 more days. i am calling off sick for friday so i can go pick her up and arrange payments for the bill. i hope i am picking her up.

i just can't express the love i feel for all of you. thank you so much for your prayers and kind wishes. i do feel a little better myself today( except for the guilt ) and will try to take a nap later. i need to call the vet for an update at 1430. kizzykat and i both thank you for your kind wishes and prayers.

i'll keep you posted.

Oh that is great news!! Can you go see her today? She's probably worried about you almost as much as you are worried about her. Thanks so much for keeping us updated. And don't forget to take care of yourself, too. :nurse:
