Just another day saving lives....

Today, I received this email from a friend on a pet diabetes list. Made me feel good to know that I helped someone with what I went through with Trace. Here's hoping everything works out for Simba.


Hi guys
i just hung up with tonia. simba is at tuft's university vet
hospital. YIPEE!!!. Lynn, it was your post that convinced her that it
was worth going further into hock to save Simba's life. The Internist
at the hospital told her that Simba should survive this and that she
needs some of acute care, some nutritional supplements, some more
tests, etc. They also think Simba needs to be tested for Cushings.
Apparently the internist in no way concurred with the opinion of one
of the doctors at the last place that simba should be put down.

When Tonia called me late last night, because the folks at the other
place were hanging crepe, I told her not to do anything, not to give
any permission for anything. I had a feeling that the people there
had run out of options, not that there weren't more options. It was
Lynn's email which convinced her to go to Tufts. GOOD JOB LYNN.

Tonia and her husband Shawn are driving home now, having left Simba
there. Tonia sounds much better than she did last night or even
earlier today. She will update later, but is eternally grateful for
everyone's support, prayers, good wishes and general help.

Ok,
I've gone on too long. But I am cheered after speaking with her.
Thanks everyone for your concern.

OF course I am....

You Are The Lovers

You represent ideal love: innocence, trust, exhilaration and joy.
You demonstrate the harmony of opposites, two sides coming together.
At times, you also represent the struggle between what is right and what is tempting.
Control is an issue for you, especially when you don't know your reasons for choosing something.

Your fortune:

You have an important choice you need to make about love, and it will be a difficult choice to make.
You are likely struggling between the love you crave and the love that is right.
In the end, you will choose what you crave, even if it's bad for you.
Because without what you crave, you will feel empty and incomplete.


Now that's more truth than I wanted. I thought this would be fun....not looking into my SOUL!!!

Powerlifting Anyone?



This is my new trainer, Wade. He can lift unGODLY amounts of weight and is drug-free.

He's going to teach me how to eat better and build up my muscles so that I can burn some of this fat off my body.

Good luck, Wade.

Will I try anything? Yes, I will. I'm not powerlifting, just strength training a few times a week.
