What's new over there? We are in for some tornado weather and the vet finally gave me valium for Tipper. I will not use it unless I really have to though. Hope you got the turtle all set up and having a nice place to live. Does Lemmy try to get at it?
Patti
Pretty good here...yesterday raining and cold...today awfully hot...weather is crazy...
Lemmy is fine!
Leti (turtle) seems to enjoy her new place and loves basking!
Bought a new plant to replace the one at Husko's place (wasn't probably meant to survive amidst a forest(y) environment, the new one is 'tougher' though!).
Fingers crossed for Tipper!
But...do you think your anxiety ''transmits'' to Tipper?
Pretty sure now that the best medicine to anything is good ''vibes''!
Anxiety is certainly not one of them...
Yet , i most certainly know that feeling (or ''feeling'') good in this situation is much easier said than done...
Maybe spend some time talking happily about anything to Tipper(?)
Iraklis:
no I never show Tipper I am upset. I know it would just really wind her up then. WE are to get storms Sunday again so I will see if the meds have any effect on her. They are such low dose that Iris thinks she may need a higher dose. This is good to start out thought to make sure she is not allergic to them as she has an allergic history. It is cooler here and the dogs love the cooler weather. I have to get some lumps taken off Tipper and her teeth cleaned and I am petrified to put her to sleep. The vet said the lumps have to go. She has a big one on her knee and her back between her shoulder blades. There will be two vets with her, and some on anesthesia. One will do the lumps and the other the teeth so she is not out long. She has her teeth cleaned every year before she got the Cushings and then I was too scared to do it. Her breath is getting bad and I know she need it, but I am still very nervous about it no matter how many people are with her. I had to have my heart checked, I have a leaky valve. I have some pain from a mammogram I had done last year and it will not let up. So yesterday when they were doing my echocardiogram they hurt me on the same spot. Not feeling real great this morning, but I will get over it. I have to go to a pin clinic and try to get a nerve block to block the pain. It is hard to lift my arm up with out causing pain. Hope you are well and that you have nicer weather today and the you and Lemmy Have a good day. The turtle sound very happy now.

We are to get a storm today so I am watching the sky and the weather in order to medicate Tipper at the right time. I sure hope she had no reaction to this medication. The weather has been good the last few days. I took the dogs to see the llamas at a farm near us. Any llamas over there?? Hope you and Lemmy are well. Did anyone name the turtle yet?
Patti
Iraklis,
Just wanted to drop in and say hello. Hope you're doing good.
Love and prayers,

The valium worked really well for Tipper she was able to withstand the storm without all the crazy shaking and panting and digging the floor. I was so relieved it was like a 50 pound weight was lifted off my shoulders. I was so glad she was not suffering! Hope you and Lemmy are well and have a good day. We are to have three days of storms this week. Yesterday it rained so hard the yards looked like lakes. At least I have something to help Tipper now!!
Patti
Yassou! Just dropped by to say hello as well! I see Leti is doing well in her new place. Lemmy's fine too! Angel Husko will like his new plant. :) The weather here is crazy too! Cool and stormy here today. They're going to put Eli back on the Vetoryl again...only 10mg to start this time.
Iraklis,
Just checking in to see how you and Lemmy are doing. Hope all is well.
Sending love,
Donna

I hope you have been busy helping out the animals and that you and Lemmy are well.

Hello everyone!
I'm sorry i don't log-in every day.
Lemmy is doing fine, although the weather is getting very hot day by day ,and he seems to enjoy sleeping more than ever.
When I return from work though he is ''geared-up'' for a walk!
I made a new basking spot for Leti above the water ,because the other one I made out of styrofoam (floating) was being beaten and eaten by her :eek:
I'll take some pictures and show you...I am really proud of it even though it is not as big as some i've seen on the internet.
Also planted 2 plants at Huskos' place...hope he likes them...
Donna,I hope you are doing ok!
Patti, that is awesome for Tipper!
Hope the pain is gone!
and ...YASSOU to you too...you know who :p
