Tipper - adrenal tumor/breathing issues

Hi Everyone:
Thanks Judi, I try to be a helpful neighbor. Just came from seeing Delora. She is so weak she does not even want to talk on the phone. She was going in and out of sleep while I was there. She lost weight, has eaten nothing in three days. I gave her the picture of her cat, she was happy with that. While I was talking to her, she said I need to get out if here. She said see those birds outside they are free. I said which bird would you be if you could fly out of here. She said a cardinal. So I will think of her whenever I see a cardinal. She does not have long and she just looks so helpless. I think she is realizing she is dying, and I think she is going to be totally bedridden soon. My neighbor came over when I got back and said that's the best candy I ever ate in my life. I knew he was hinting, so I invited him in and gave him some more. He went home smiling, thinking he he really fooled me into more candy! I gave Tipper a lot more of her herbs and fed her. It is ready to start raining any minute here so I hope this works. We are all going to take a much needed rest. I am truly sad for Delora. Blessings

Delora's situation is a very sad one for sure. I'm glad you got to see her as any time could be the last one and what a special treat for her to have her cat's photo too. Something to focus on and hold to her heart.
It sounds like Delora is maybe ready to be free too.
That is great that Tipper went out on the porch. :) Hopefully the storms won't be too much for her and the herbs will help I don't think there is anything that will just make the nerves go away. I think all you can do is to try to tamp them down a bit and which ever works best for her to do that is what you'll have to use.
Molly doesn't like fireworks or thunder, she is an equal opportunity sound nerve wrecker.

it is very hot and humid overhere with thunder etc. and it will be for the rest of the week.
so don't move overhere! not tipper's kind of weather.
slow walks for the siblings.........................

Hi Everyone:
Well it has been thunder showers off and on all day. I gave Tipper her herbs and she is in the closet. I took her to the vets and no bp as it was a waste of time with the weather. She had her Adequan shot. After we got home I decided to bale homemade yeast rolls. They are a lot of work. I am keeping busy as I am very nervous over Deloras condition and Tipper being crazy from these storms. I
gave her the herbs and she is in the closet. I had to turn the heat off and the air on it got so hot. I am tired so I will take a rest tomorrow. I gave the neighbors some rolls so they are all happy and running to get some butter and jelly while they are hot! We have laser therapy next Tuesday so that is our next appointment. I need to get out there and clean my kitties room, it is the only room I did not spring clean. I found a Chinese Herbalist about 15 miles from here, but when I talked to the vet about it today he was not in favor of it because of all the studies he has been reading on things grown in certain regions of China, how the ground is full of lead and metals. He said you cannot be sure they are safe, and how domyoun know what region to buy them from?? I am giving it some thought. Well Elvis is singing Tiny Bubbles so that is my cue to get him out for his evening look at the bird feeders outside so he can see what the birdy friends are doing. Blessings

Patti call the pharmacy I gave you a link to and ask them about your concerns. They might grow what they need here, the pharmacy is in Florida

OK thanks I hope so.

Very dad that Delora couldn't even speak to you today. :( She seems to be failing very quickly.

Glad that Tipper got her shot as hopefully she'll feel much better.

Yum, you are quite the baker and cook. I'm impressed just reading about those candy bars. Wow. And yeast rolls too. Nothing better than rolls hot out of the oven. :)

Hope no storms tonight.

also Patti that pharmacy can only be used by vets and you cant buy it any place else and there have been studies done about stasis breaker, that's why I said you need to get herbs from a high quality source, not on amazon and places like that. Let me know what the pharmacy tells you.

Hi Patti,
I'm just catching up on your posts. Between the homemade candy and the yeast rolls I'm drooling after reading your thread!!
I'm sorry poor Tipper is subjected to all these thunder storms. I hope the herbs will help tonight and tomorrow. We're supposed to maybe get some tomorrow and Friday.
Trixie licks her front legs too..not constantly but often. The schnauzer I had growing up named Misty was a big paw licker, Trixie's not as bad as Misty was.
Poor Delora, sorry to hear things have only gotten worse for her. It was really nice of you to bring her a framed photo of her cat..I bet she will love having that picture next to her bed.
So jealous that you had a Baltimore Oriole at your feeder! I saw one many years ago, not too close up though. Would love to see one again. There are many bird watching groups in Central Park everyday now. This is when there are many birds migrating North and they stop here in Central Park on the way. One of the choice spots is where Trixie and I walk so I keep my eyes peeled for something interesting.
Hope you don't get too many loud storms!

Oh Patti,
your neighbors must all adore you :)

Delora sounds like her time is near and that she's not afraid. That is a blessing! So sweet that you brought her a picture of the cat.

We're expecting rain again too. Poor Tipper. I hope that the herbs do help her and that the pharmacy can steer you away from the bad places to get them.
