Zoe By My Side- Our Journey with Cushings

Hi Addy-
Just checkin' in and letting you know I'm thinking about you.
HUGS-
Sus

Hey Sus,

Thank you for thinking of me. Trying to hang in there. Have had my hands full with mom and not much time for anything else. Sure don't like these rehab facilities:eek::eek::eek::eek:

Zoe is doing well, except her back leg is still sore from the fiasco tlast week:(:(:(:( She and Koko have had to spend too much time locked in the kitchen the last few days. I worry about that and my stress level.

I think I need a breathing class or maybe we can have a group breathing hour, remind me to breathe in, breathe out:D:D;)


Otherwise I may need to resort to Chocovino:cool::cool::cool:



Love,
addy

Loved reading your posts. Confirms some of my feelings or thoughts!

Hi Addy,

I have had your mom in my prayers each and every night and think of her constanty as her circumstances hit close to home for me as well. Some how we all have become kinder soles of sorts.

Hi, Addy -

I must have missed what happened to your mom. Hope all is all right. Sounds like Zoe is still doing pretty well.

Go ahead and have a glass (or 2) of Chocovine...it'll do wonders for you! :D

Hi Addy -- Thoughts and prayers for your mom and of course you and Zoe too!!! I think I missed the post to about your mom - but I know you have your hands full - especially when you said rehab - thats where I spent alot of time this summer with my aunt - How is Zoe today? Hope leg is better - yes you need to breath!!! My aunt does breathing exercises every night - says it relaxes her - not me I tried I just got bored!!!:D:D But you need to take care of yourself also - your mom and Zoe need to to stay healthy!!:) Yup a glass of wine will help!!!!!:D Hugs Love and prayers!!!

Dear Addy
Thinking about you and prayers for your Mom and you. My heart goes out to you. When my mother had knee replacement surgery, I visited her everyday. It was exhausting. I was able to bring Apollo which was a good stress reliever. Remember to take some time for yourself to unwind. Even if it just sitting down to have a coffee, tea, or just read the newspaper(maybe skip the newspaper:eek:)
Make yourself an Austrian ice kaffe: one hot coffee, two scoops of vanilla ice cream, top with some whip cream and a chocolate chip cookie) pretending you are sitting outside in a Vienna Cafe house. :o

Oooooooooooo...I LOVE the sound of the Austrian ice kaffe! :):D
I second skipping the paper. Even the comics aren't funny anymore.:(
When they took me away in the ambulance, I was hyperventilating. The attendant said that had happened to him and someone showed him how to get past it. Breathe in for two counts. Hold it for two counts. Exhale for two counts. Sounds to me like that might be a good thing to do for you. I know if you take a couple of deep breaths, slowly, before they take your blood pressure, it will lower your blood pressure some.:)
I hope you were able to relax a little over the weekend.
Hey! I finished 3 stepping stones. :):D When I can unmold them I'll take some pictures. If they weren't so heavy, I'd make a funny one for you and mail it to you! :D;)
Breathe in, cha, cha, cha, hold it, cha, cha, cha, breathe out, cha, cha, cha! Now....go fix yourself either an Austrian Ice kaffe or eat some Blue Bunny!:D
Love,
Susan

okay, I am so making a Sonja super sunday coffee, yummy good.

thank you, I have not been able to post much and don't have much time right now to gab with you all.:(:(

Zoe is doing well except for her back leg still being sore from running after Koko last week. I did the nerve test on her paw and she moves it right back, WHEW!!!!

She did lose more weight. I had cut back a tad on her food because she was gaining weight when we first started treatment last June:rolleyes: then I switched two of her snacks from dehydrated raw to teaspoon of Zeal about a month ago.

She is fine, looks good, I like her at 18 pounds, just don't want her to lose more. This happened last October too, now that I think about it. I wonder why? Or is it that the weather gets cooler and she drinks less water and it is water weight?

Mom fractured her pelvis in 2 places last week; we tranfered her from hospital to rehab Saturday. Not sure of the prognosis or time frame:eek::eek: I have not had much time to post on all of your threads but I think of you all every day,

Cindy, Mary Beth, Sus, Sonja, Marie, Teresa, Teri, Julie, Judi, ALL OF YOU, in case I forgot to write a name but am running out of time:eek::eek:I hope your pups are okay, I love you all and think about you all the time as well as everyone else here.

Hope you got your Mom comfortably settled (relatively speaking, poor Mom) and got a few minutes in for yourself.

Hugs to you & Zoe.
