Molly, 13 yr, shih tzu - lhasa aspo - Molly has passed

Oh Marianne is here with some sensible advice for Sharlene, thank god for that... much better than our silliness :D:D But you can count on us to bring the alcohol, chocolate eggs, popcorn and movies!!!! Nice to see you Marianne!!! x

Oh chocovino we don't get that here so need to be Bellinis I know Sharlene would approve of that :D

Oh yeah, I been meaning to google chocovino to see if I can get it here. Also not heard of it before this forum! That blue coat Addy, is actually purple but it is so wet in that video it looks dark blue!! Mum got that for him on one of her trips to Christchurch, it is made out of the same stuff they make horse blankets with. So it is his own mini pony cover, he wore it yesterday for the first time this year to go to Mum and Dad's as it was teeming!

Put Koko's video up please... I have to find that one I did for you of him playing with his puzzle!

Have you got any Woody ones Tracy?

What is in a Bellini? I dont think I ever had one.:o:o

Is that a new habit I need to get?

I think Sharlene is home, I saw her green light on:D:D:D

Looks like this doggy's drink on the left! Peaches and peach schnapps and bubbles! Sharlene got me on to them and I made them for a lunch I did and nearly knocked the socks off my mother lol. I still have some of the schnapps in the fridge but also no real peaches to make the puree

Haven't had dinner yet. Hubby is flying home from Ottawa at the moment. I got sidetracked by a call from Molly's IMS while I was out shopping and I sat in the car yakking with her for about 1/2 an hour.
No worries, Molly's urine came back fully concentrating, (as is normal for her). But a protein of +2, which she has been up and down before, anyway, the IMS wanted to add on the Urine Protein Creatnine Ratio test to see the actual numbers and know if we need to keep an eye on that or if that is her normal.

We talked pheo's, non symptoms, not wanting to surgery if not needed, all of which she understands and agrees with. She said, you never know with a pheo if you go in if they'll be great or have complications, which made me bring up, yes you know it, Flynn man. :) She said, that is awesome, he must have good parent and a good team of surgeons and I was like, oh yes, the best, we are all jealous of his vet, whom his mum can email or call or whatever whenever and he calls back all the time. It's a love fest for us. She said, and I just really wanted to hug her at that moment, she said, Sharlene, you have my email and you can email me any time at all if you have any worries or concerns or just want to discuss molly's day. I love your molly. I was like, awwwwwwww

Anyway, she said not to think about an MRI yet as it's too early to do that and no guarantee for that amount of money that they'll see something.

I didn't think about the maintenance lysodren possibility, good thought Marianne.

You are absolutely right Addy, no symptoms, no treat is the standard and I did discuss that with the IMS who agrees with that. And Addy how sweet of you to check in from work. Why are you at work? Aren't you suppose to be home recuperating? nasty virus, takes time to get over you know. (worrying about Addy's health too)

Lori I brought up that study you posted about the Estradiol too and she said, she has seen that too and it is why Tenn wants to see at least 2 of the hormones elevated before they go down any diagnositc road of atypical cushings.

I think I have covered all the bases of our discussions. I left my poor hubby texting away while he was waiting on the plane to finishing loading, while I went off and chatted on the phone! LOL Looks like we are moving into spring, he has the guy coming to wash off the deck tomorrow, and said he has to turn on our outside water tonight. He plans on making a beer run as we have friends around at some point this weekend too. Although, some of our friends have run off to Florida for the weekend and another took off to New Orleans. Brats!! I am envious of them. LOL But we have others coming in from out of town, so will be in and outs.

I am trying very hard not to go all freaky over molly. Just wait on the tests to come back and go from there.

Oh did i mention how you know I post the whole history when molly has a test done on her thread here? So, I printed that out (the last one and most up to date) and took it in with her file. The IMS loved it and made a copy of it, said wished everyone had something so thorough and concise. I said, we encourage maintaining a running history on the cushings forum. She said not to worry that I couldn't look at Molly's situation as an outsider, because you really can't, you're too close to it. She said she is the same with her dogs. She has to have others do the treatments as she is pure parent.

Okay, enough of the book, again! I will have to get videos of molly, lord, I don't even know how to post a video. and I know I still owe everyone the window pic too.

I'll just pull out the popcorn, white cheddar here! and watch everyone elses for now. :)

hugs and thanks you guys, it means the world!
Sharlene and molly muffin

Yeah just uploading it Trish

OMG, I really cant stop laughing at that picture, Oh no, I have tears in my eyes from laughing so hard. Koko thinks I'm nuts.

Where did you find that photo:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Oh wait, I was posting when Sharelene was.:o:o:o

Sharlene, just lock it all up in the drawer until the UTK test comes back. I think you should take a video of Molly hunting for Easter eggs. I never posted anything to Youtube in my life. Sometimes my two videos work, sometimes not:o:o What the heck. The teenager will fix it when she comes home from college.:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Isn't that photo AWESOME! I love it too. Had it on my work computer as wallpaper for a bit.

Throwing the salad stuff back in the fridge! Hubby's plane landed and he offered to take me to the pub tonight, so I'm not turning that down! hehehe

OMG, Addy, you havn't had bellini's Oh you must have! Peach bellini.
You can throw in some fresh or frozen peaches into the blender and make it all mushy like, sparkling wine is key ingredient though! Must have that.
