Robin, me too! I have had little sleep the last couple nights, and I was bawling this morning thinking about those little guys being hurt.

I get more emotional with less sleep. It stormed here pretty bad last night and I got up and sat with momma all night so she wouldn't be scared. She's started to bleed a little in her urine and she has diarreah. (I'm hoping it's because she's adjusting to the food I've been giving her and not another problem.) She's also skin and bones. She has started to stand up and move around my kitchen and all her bones stick out - ribs, hips, shoulders...it's sad, really. I wonder what she's been living off of the last few months.

I have also been thinking I should become a vet, or animal rescue worker. I've had so many situations the last couple months that have been a big eye opener to me, and hints that I'm doing the wrong thing. But, then when I go into these shelters, it's so depressing. I really don't think that's the path for me. I think my gift is to take in the strays and make sure they get healthy. I hope I can find them a good home, but in the meantime, I've applied to foster animals at the SCPA website. I think THAT is what I'm meant to do.

My soft spot has always been children and animals (not always in that order, some kids are just evil lil shits ROFL) I used to foster cats and dogs (mainly mommy's with pups/kittens like you are doing now) I paid out of pocket many times to have full litters spayed and neutered before they were adopted out. I miss doing that but I have a house full of pets as it is right now, one being a special needs dog (he loves other dogs but we don't trust him around them long term). So right now I am concentrating on my pets and family.

Good on ya !! I am glad people step up like you are doing.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
