I am taking a big sigh of relief as we hear great news about Gracie! She has escaped the jaws of death! Our new vet says that her kidney function is still good and isn't worried about her tumorous growths (yet). She wants to treat her with a very strong antibiotic and switch to a non-topical flea medication that may ease some of her inflammation (she thinks she is allergic to flea medicine). This along with some TLC may be all she needs! Yay! We will know in a few more weeks if her condition improves or she needs reevaluation. I am exhausted. I am also grateful to have found a vet that has a heart that I know I can trust. Thanks again to all of you who left comments about Gracie and to those of you who have come up to me and told me you understand what I'm going through. I know she's 11 and this news may only be a temporary fix; but as long as she's happy to be around and isn't in any pain, we're going to love her into her golden years.
Now, I can get back to reality again. Bible study meets here on Tuesday!! I will email you all this weekend with directions etc... I have a lot to do to get ready!! I have to finish tiling and a few other projects. I have to plan the menu and shop, clean like mad, and, oh yeah, finish up the reading for this week!

My friend's dog was allergic to Frontline. It made her really sick. She is off of that and doing great. I hope that helps Gracie! Good news!
I having catching up on the study to do too. I did a whole week today and it wore my brain out in a good way! Don't over do it. See you soon.
Well, you can't be any more behind than I am on the study. I've only done day 1 of week 3! I definitely get the "slacker" award for this one!
Great news! So glad to hear Gracie will be around longer than expected.
