Well, everybody survived the day--the little guy was pretty skinny when I got home, but will supplement my heart out every two hours until I go to work tomorrow. Everybody else is good...started Lulu on the azithromax this afternoon. My vet gave me a refund on some of the other meds I hadn't opened yet--$48.00. So with the money so graciously donated by you wonderful folks here at Sphynx Lair, and with the refund, I was able to buy the meds, saline to mix it with, syringes to administer it and the office call last night. My vet took a long time to separate the powder into three separate containers--because it comes in a container that if you mix the entire amount, you will waste some of it--and it cost $70.00. He took over an hour with me, writing everything down, explaining what to do, who to medicate, how much saline to add, how much to dose--with my entire brood, it gets complicated. But thanks so much to you all for the loving assistance so many have offered. I love you all for it.
Hopefully it is the beginning of better days to come.

WoW, Your vet sounds AMAZING. Don't get me wrong my vet rocks but I haven't put him through any test such as this. (Thank fully!!!!) Keep your eyes peeled for mine still. Once I got unburied from the snow I was falling down in the kitchen and I've been laid up for 4 days now with my ankle. Yes I'm going crazy!!! LOL Now I'm covered in snow again. I'm hoping tomorrow I can get out cuz I have some other stuff I need to mail out as well. I can walk a lil, my limp is awful tho. I'm sure I'll see some 2d graders laughing at me. LOL Hope all is still going smoothly as possible still. I love reading about the good news with your lil brood. Keep on keepin on!!! xoxo:ThumbsUp:

Sorry to hear you are hurt--really, you don't need to send me anything...I know you care without it. Take care of yourself--stay off your ankle! Are you also a teacher??? 2nd grade? If so, gotta love ya! Those little second grade girls are a different breed of characters!
* For the non-teachers out there--2nd grade girls have the NEED to check every move they make with the teacher--at least they do around here--and it's enough to drive ya nuts! There is a lot of girl drama at that age also..."You are not my friend anymore!" they delight in telling each other, which brings a gush of tears from the others....oh--you are a special woman, GF. By the time they graduate 2nd for third, some of that is over--thank goodness!

Glad to hear the little ones are doing well. It's great to hear some good news here on this forum for a change. Your vet sounds very caring and competent, too, which I'm sure helps a lot!

Oh I'm fine! Woke up today and no longer have lil sausages for toes!! LOL I'm am not a teacher. I'm actually currently unemployed due to a lay off right after Christmas but my career path is Operations Management for call centers. Applied for another one today so we will see how it goes. :) :ThumbsUp:
