The Baby is Officially in Remission!!!!!

I almost can't believe it myself.  Webber is officially considered in remission.  We had a party in FDMB today and I was in tears most of the day as I read all the wonderful messages and congrats from everyone there.  Carolyn said that today was bittersweet for me because it was Webber's last daily condo and she was correct on so many levels.  I will miss posting Webber's WCR (whole cat report) every morning and getting to have a daily condo to post all of what is going on with him.  Discovering the FDMB was one of the best things that had happened to me and my babies.  I never thought that I could find other people that felt the same way as I do about their cats.  Most all of the beans (human mom's) on the Lantus Land Insulin Support Group are so dedicated to the health and well-being of their cats---it warms my heart to the core.  I also thing that only those on LL could really and truely share in the joy of having your cat get off the insulin.  When I told others on my facebook page or co-workers they just looked at me "yeah and.....?"  Oh well, you can't expect everyone to understand how you feel about animals.

Part of me thinks that these last couple of months dealing with Webber's disease has triggered my generalized anxiety disorder again.  Now that he is no longer getting insulin shots I find myself still anxious and emotional for no apparent reason.  I could not help myself this evening and tested him (just to see where his BG was).  I don't know how I am going to wean myself off of testing him all the time.  One of the users whose cat's has been off the insulin for one month told me that we can start off testing once a week for one month and then go to testing once a month.  I will have to rely on how he acts to see if the diseased is coming back.  Well jeez, I guess that means I will spend the next several month being overy paranoid.  Might as well get my xanax refilled, LOL.

His hair coat has gotten so much softer and shinier.  It can only get better from here with the new diets they have been on for about 1 1/2 months now.  My raw food was part of the recall so I need to go get a new package to replace the one I had to throw out.  Webber seemed to be the only one that liked the raw diet, and supposedly it is very good for them.  So even if he is the only one to eat it....that is worth it all.
