Hopefully no headache, vision changes, etc.
Yes, I’m neurotic. I’m sure you already knew that. 
I agree with this.
That’s worrying about Cerby sari. I know the decision won’t be easy either way, but I’m confident that you’ll make the right call.
{{{ace}}} You have some pretty scary stuff ahead. Would one of your friends be willing to drive you to Indy? Take care of yourself. You’re going to need to be in good health to get through this.
I am so sorry to hear this
The really difficult part about online friendships is the distance. There are so many times just here in this thread that it would be great to have some little thing, other than a kind word, that one could do to help ease the sadness in the lives of our friends.
You said that so well. If only one of us could be there to drive her to Indy, or just be with her during this horrible time.
Thank you, everyone. So many kind words! I sure do appreciate it. We don’t even know if he can get the experimental procedure, yet. It all depends on what the guy in Indy says about everything. I can’t believe this is happening. I’m having a really difficult time with it all. I know I’m not the first, and I know I won’t be the last. But, damnit. Just…Damnit.
Again, thank you all.

I’ll say it for you. This is just so fucking unfair and why couldn’t you have gotten any warning first?!?
As already mentioned, this is one of the best descriptions of a teenage cat that I’ve ever heard.
Please trust your instincts. I know you wanna do right by Cerby, but I don’t think he feels the same way.
Up, caffeinated, and sheveled. Off to heave.
wow hope it works out … if I was in your position id airmail over a nice bottle of 3o-year-old Macallan (very premium scotch) and sleep in it for a couple of days
sari - that’s scary about Cerby. I can’t say I’d be a patient as you are in trying to figure it out. When I was a kid, a neighbor had a German Shepherd who they had to put down because he attacked the father, and they had 2 kids they didn’t dare keep at risk. It was a shame - it was a beautiful dog, but there was a beast beneath.
{{{nona and Mr.}}} - Be strong and know we’re all here when you need to unload and vent!
Speaking of venting, one of my friends from high school just found out that her ex (now deceased) told everyone that she left him when he was the one who walked out on her. WHY?? He was emotionally abusive (and an ass) so maybe that’s the answer. After all these years (he’s been dead over 20 years) he’s still tormenting her. Some people are such jerks!
I woke stoopit early but I’m up and dressed and caffeinating. Food Lion has Diet Cokes on sale this week - maybe Tobias and I will run down there this morning. That’s pretty much today’s potential excitement.
I was kinda miffed yesterday to find out that a large portion of our SS is, in fact, subject to income tax. Dammit. I mis-read the rules. At least I caught it now when I was adjusting our withholding. Else there’d have been a very unpleasant surprise next tax year.
Anyway, it’s morning and temporarily quiet till the toddler tornado arrives. Happy Wednesday!!
Good Mornin’ Y’all! Up and caffeinatin’. YAWN ‘Tis 59 Amurrkin out and clear with a predicted high of 73 and N.O.S. for the day. ‘Tis cooler than it has been in a couple of weeks. The big item on today’s agenda is to procure provisions. If’n the price of shrimpies is not too outrageous sup shall be shrimpies ‘n grits with bacon wrapped spareguts. If shrimpies are more than we are willin’ to pay, then I foresee gettin’ fried chikin N.O.L.s from the Pubic Sto’. Of course there shall be the usual sloth and general overall uselessness.
sari way scary about Cerby! I know you’ll make the best decision even if it’s the tough one.
Now I need more caffeine and to feed rumbly tummy. Then, bother of bothers, I suppose I must purtify and don appropriate attire for bein’ amongst the great unwashed. How I suffer!
Happy Hump Day Y’all!
Morning all. HVAC folks are due at about 7:30am to start on my ductwork so I set the alarm for 6:30am…and of course woke up about 6am and couldn’t get back to sleep. Don’t know why on days I have to be up early for one reason or another I always end up waking earlier than the alarm… Anyway, only a slight chance of rain and temperatures in the mid-60’sF should mean a good day.
OK, need to sweep out the garage so it looks moderately clean for any work that needs to be done. Take care all.
I’m so sorry, Ace. Best wishes for you and Mr. Ace. I hope he gets the answers and care he needs. We’ll all be thinking about you.
Morning everyone. Dinner last night with my sister was great. We went to Outback Steakhouse. I got their “Bloomin’ Fried Chicken”, their “Aussie Fries”, and their “Steakhouse Mac n Cheese”. Was nice and filling.
Very sorry, Ace. How upsetting.
Best wishes, Ace.
{{{{{ace and hubs}}}}} Of course you are worried sick, you couldn’t be anything else. It is a scary time for both of you, and you’re right not to look up any info on the procedure too. I wish also that I wasn’t so far away, so many times my mumper friends need a bit of support, and there’s nobody close enough to give it. You’ll have to imagine a line of us sitting under your window, holding your hand.
Sari that is scary news about Cerby. A friend of mine had a gorgeous dog, so sweet and friendly one day she just turned vicious. They had to have her put to sleep, the vet couldn’t find any reason for her behaviour and they couldn’t risk it happening again in case the dog attacked someone. It was apparently extremely scary to see how quickly she changed from a sweet little thing to a snarling, biting monster.
Apparently a bunch of people took the day off to celebrate the accession of Queen Anne to the throne of England. But that meant I made a whisper of OT.
GodBod, glad dinner went well.
