The window butt-sling I purchased for O’Beast has become popular with Kitten as well. I haven’t yet caught Catitude up there (at least, not of her own volition, though The Socialist has tried dumping her up there once or twice just to see what would happen). The fabric of the hammock has become very worn,…
That beautiful garden makes up for this, another birthday present from the sisters, for the garden: It is a frog with a built in solar battery, so it can soak up the sun’s rays during the day and then glow in your garden for hours at night. Scary, huh?
How does my garden grow? Well, considering I still can’t bend over to weed, and it takes about fifteen trips for me to water the garden by hand because I can’t fill the watering can more than half-full (it’s too heavy for me to lift, otherwise), I’d say the garden is doing very well. I…
It would appear that I continue to do quite well, according to my transplant coordinator. My incision is healing very nicely, I’ve lost fifteen pounds of superfluous water weight since last Tuesday, and all my bloodwork from last week looks good. I get to skip a check-up next week (though I still need to get…
At least, it will be good medicine if that damned Kitten doesn’t have me laughing so hard that I split my incision! I believe I mentioned in passing a few entries back that my older sister gave me a cat toy for a birthday present, a cat toy that the Kitten has become absolutely enamored…
Interestingly enough, the transplant center seems far more pleased with my progress than I am. My weight is holding relatively steady, my incision is healing nicely, the swelling in my legs has reduced significantly, and my albumin was up to 3.0 as of last week (normal is 3.3 – 4.5, so I’m almost there). I…
I have a little shadow that goes in and out with me, And what can be the use of him is more than I can see. – My Shadow, Robert Louis Stevenson I sit on the sofa, and she’s on my lap. I sit at the computer, and he’s in the window sling. I sit…
I begin to worry about myself when I become overwhelmed with pride because I managed to take a shower without a chair in the stall to sit on. I know I couldn’t have done that a few weeks ago when I first got home from the hospital, so there is some tangible proof that I’m…
It sure does end “/Legend”. I just messed up the slash when I inserted the space. Thanks for catching that. I fixed it in the code sample.
and some days you’re the bug. I’m doing OK today. Which is to say that not much has changed, but I’m coping a bit better. It helps having the Socialist around. Fridays he has no classes, and even if we aren’t in the same room it’s just plain comforting not to be the only non-cat…
