My hospital stay was not just for Acute Pancreatitis. While there, I acquired Antibiotic-Associated Clostridium Difficile Colitis. Even though the pancreas has been asleep for over a week, the side effects of the drugs fighting the C-Diff were horrible. Twenty pounds lighter (good news) but dehydrated (bad news). Living on Oatmeal Porridge, Cheerios, Shreddies, Rice, and Plain Pasta to fill me up. Find out on Monday when the Gallbladder comes out. My first treat after to celebrate will be a coffee with REAL CREAM. Didn't know a body could crave something so much. I literally 'Dream' about a decent cup of coffee. ............
Only two little kittens remain with us. Little "Freckles" travels to Cornwall on the 19th, and wee "Prince" flies to Montreal on the 29th. All others are adjusting to their new family's lives.
Francina has again not carried to term. Such a sad time. She will undergo blood tests and scoping to see if we can help her.
Perhaps the Good Lord is watching over me, and forcing a break from kittens to allow me time for surgery and healing. Still have further dental surgery to undergo in Oct-Nov. By Christmas, I should be hunky dorey. Till next time ...........................
