Thank you all for your prayers and good wishes. If Jazz weren't
positive, I'd wait and watch. I've learned from example and experience
not to do that anymore.

Good thoughts coming your way for Jazz. Sometimes they're
nothing. I've had that happen with one of mine. Fingers and paws
crossed!
Well,
here we go again, it's a wonder any of us have any fingernails
left! Yesterday while petting Jazzy, I felt a strange 'cartilage-like'
lump on her throat. It doesn't seem to bother her to touch it and she's
eating and swallowing fine. She had a hard lump on her forehead when
she was little that just went away as she grew. I'm hoping it's nothing
to worry about. I've made an appointment at my vet's for her. Please
say a prayer that it turns out to be nothing to be concerned over. I
woke up crying this morning thinking about the possibility of losing
her
and the futility of fighting so much disease. Sometimes I get so tired
of dealing with illness. I shouldn't complain, I have had so much
success and so many blessings. While I was crying into my husband's
shoulder, he gently reminded me that, of course, everything dies, how
w!
e've given them a loving, happy home, and how the odds that they'd
still be here without us are slim to say the least. When I'm worried
about losing my babies, those arguments, while valid, just don't bring
that much comfort.
On the brighter side, Gypsy is doing so much better! She still has the
IBD symptoms, but she's eating better, and she's using the litter box
less often. Now, if she'd just firm up those poops and put on some
weight!
Thanks for caring,
Nina
