WoW! This last weekend was a little miracle. Webber had a nice run with blues for more that 24 hours straight. That means that his BG's were in the 100's for quite a long time. I was so happy and he really seemed to feel better as well. He was being his old playful self. I guess I had forgotten how much he would just lay around. I got used to that when he had his multiple orthopedic issues....he would just lay around. But, even though I was feeling happy, in the back of my mind I was also being really paranoid that it wasn't going to last. Being my superstitious self, I figured that once I vocalized how well he was doing that would be the end of it. I have seen multiple other cats on the message board that have had numbers all over the place so I wasn't expecting to be so lucky.
This morning my fears came true. Webber's AMPS was in the upper 200's and I was decidedly very sad. I tried to convince myself that this was bound to happen and his numbers will come down again, however I had to come home for lunch just to see if the numbers were coming down. I was able to come home and get a +5 reading and yes the numbers had dropped, but not enough to settle my nerves.
This evening his PMPS was even higher--in the 300's. I admit I had to have a drink after that. Yes, I am weak when it comes to my nerves (lol). I was just able to test +2 since his PM shot and he had dropped about 60 points. That is great!!
So today was my little pity party again. I hate to whine about Webber's numbers when I see so many others kitties with such higher sugar counts. But when it is your baby it is hard. I was so determined when we started this that I was going to fix him and make it all better for my baby. I am still determined but I am slowly learning that the process is not so straight forward and takes a lot of patience that I lack already. They say god won't give you anything you can't handle. We shall see how this goes later tonight.
Present: This blog will be a combination of feline health posts, pictures etc. The Past: This is my blog of Webber's journey with feline diabetes. We hope that this journey for my sugarbaby will not last long. We hope that with diet and a short bout of strict insulin injections he will conquer it all!

It's like trying to stop smoking. You do good for a while, then slip. But if you're really determined, you get back on track and next time it'll be longer before you slip, and eventually you'll have it totally under control.
