The dreaded has happened. Sadie, my beloved friend and feline is very sick. She has Grave's Disease (hyperthyrodism). She is down to 5 pounds now. Had no clue she was sick until we took her in for her yearly shots and check-up. We have her on medicine right now. We have another 3 weeks of medicine till they re-test. Feels to me like the lump is getting bigger so my stomach is turning all the time waiting for the 3 weeks. She is not eating good, although she still takes the medicine and her treats. I am singing to her more at night now just to let her know she is so loved. I have had her for 12 years now and I am so thankful the Lord gave her to me. I never thought my husband would like a cat but he also fell in love with her and is sick to his stomach also. Sadie is special to us. She has been friends to 3 of our dogs (who have all passed away now). The dogs loved her...they would sleep cuddled up with her. Will be back in 3 weeks to report the results.
