It sounds as though Jennie is feeling more comfortable.
I hope that you won't have to go far to get the fresh meds? Has the CBD oil arrived yet?
P S. I made it here.
HI!
I see that! No, except for the gabapentin, that I have to go to the specialist for (100 mile drive one way) the vet isn't more than a 10-12 minute drive away, but it's winter and the weather is often bad and it is dark when I get out of work. I don't want to risk not being able to get over there, and run out of meds.
Vet has agreed that when I get the refills I can get a larger quantity.
I try to avoid thinking about any time line going forward but it seems pretty clear that Jennie's illness is progressing fairly rapidly. The original meds, the gabapentin and piroxicam kept her comfortable for only 4 weeks.
Now we've added heavier duty drugs...but they won't keep her comfortable forever. I am a firm believer in too soon is better than too late and I have started having The Talk with Jennie.
First talk last night. I've told her that I will watch her carefully and she is to tell me when she's had enough. I've also reassured her that I will be fine, she mustn't try to stay strong or hide her suffering for fear of my pain of losing her. That it's Jennie that matters.
I won't dwell on it of course, I do try to keep things cheerful around here, but we'll be having that talk every evening now.
PS as I was typing that Jennie was counter surfing. YAY!
That is good news!
Thanks ThreeStep
