Appointment at 4 today

Today we bring Snoopy to Tufts to have some blood drawn to check the status of her kidneys. It is possible we can stop doing the sub-Q, and if we can stop that, it is a good sign that she does not have CRF. So fingers are crossed here.

We are taking her to Tufts because they obviously do not encounter the same issues drawing blood that Dr. K does - namely, biting and scratching! At least up until now that has been the case. She has always been feeling poorly when she goes there, so who knows how she will react when she feels better.

Last night she actually jumped up into our bed and got down under the covers and slept there until 2:30 a.m. Jumping on the high bed is quite a feat for her - she's not been able to do that for months and months.

She has lost weight and she obviously feels stronger. I am concerned about the weight loss, however, and about her appetite. Hoping it will all come together soon and she will start to eat a little more.

She was under the bed when I left for work. I'll leave work early to go with Don to Tufts. Still hoping for some good news!
