Ms. Em is finally having some quieter days. Earlier this week I thought we'd all go nuts. I guess it takes a couple of days for her to feel the effect of the prednisone reduction. Oh she's still hungry as a horse but she's not as all consuming ravenously hungry. (yes, there is a difference)
Emily's energy level is a bit better too. She's got a little pep in her step. She's also a bit more steady although I did nearly knock her over trying to clean a back paw.
Now if she would just take her duck for a walk, I'd say all was right in the world. But she has cancer so all is not right in the world. Hopefully her blood count will be okay for treatment on Tuesday.
I've added some pumpkin to her diet. Bit of vitamin K, a good dose of beta carotene and it helps regulate her poo. Even though you'd think it's a sweet starch veg and therefore high in carbs it's not. I only add a bit with her cabbage, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, broccoli, spinach, and/or red peppers.
Emily is napping now. Somehow that seems like a good idea since she had me up at 4:30am, again at 8am and then again at 9am when I gave up all hope of ever catching up on my sleep. I'll sleep when she's in remission!
