    Evening, a quiet day here today really. Have to try and push through with the new meds but have been told to give her something to try and lessen the feelings of the side effects tonight. Fingers crossed! Still battling with her temp 40.9 seems to be featuring regularly. Out of everything she goes through a high temp really scares me :o

    Vets sent a card in the post that came this morning. Set us all of in tears again :o They should receive her back on Monday. It still feels so strange and I keep shouting her in/out :o DD looked at me like I'd lost my marbles earlier :o

    Hope everyone is well

    Hopefully Christmas will be a distraction for you all and distract you from sad thoughts.

    I hope littlest DD has less side effects.

    I've been trying to find the suggestions for youngest but I haven't had chance. Added to my list of things to do tonight while no doubt she's bouncing off the ceiling till 4am :o

    Sorry I thought I'd replied thanking for the suggestions but I can't see it now.

    Thank you HH

    I will sort something about the ashes, they won't receive her back until Monday and then will hold onto her for 2 weeks for me which is nice of them. Although not sure if that's normal anyway but I did feel she was being nice.

    I've been reading all the info with youngest new meds and I do feel like I need to push on with it and give it a good try. It seems if they work it could really show us some improvement on day to day struggles. Long term worries me so I don't read that far into it :o
