Hoppy Valentine's Day, Everybunny!
I think Charlie binkied this morning! Go figure.
The appointment on Tuesday went well - the daily sub-q fluids are reducing the calcification, and Charlie's kidney function is good. I had the scribe type "great," and then made him change it to "good," because I just don't know what the range is, what is "good," and what is "great."
The short of it is we survived another week-year. The appointment was one of those "doctor-tech" appointments, and I think I know why it rubs my hoomin the wrong way. It's not that Charlie needed a full-blown exam and workup. My hoomin did. There ought to be something just for hoomins hoomins. If Avian or Keystone clinics had coffee bars and were open 24/7, the sorry sod would never leave.
We are continuing the daily regimen of 50 ml sub-q fluids for another week. Aside from the "daily stabbing," Charlie is really doing well. We're learning how to keep staying in the moment, and with her, and next to her as much as we can.
Unfortunately, that means the stinker meat sack is trying to stay with me as well, and all I do is make shives from apple sticks.
We'll keep you posted!
- Gus
