Feline Friday Beauspeak and Mama

 

These itty bitty kitties, are my human brothers ferals, which makes them my  nieces/nephews.

Whatever you are thinking now, just remember I have Cusining Disease and can't stop eating!

NOW A WORD FROM DA MAMA! HA HA HA HAHAHA Can she say a Word? 
Mama's Current Mood



Bobs latest update on Infusion Meds.

All Calls are completed, Plans are made, I spoke to two RN's, in two days. The dates for the first two are July 7 and 8. The first one will take from 5 to 9 hours, depending on how he does with the drug.

The first RN called to explain what will happen and ask a zillion questions, and one of those questions  was, Do you have pets in the house, YES, a dog, What type of dog, A Big one. There were other minor questions, about Bob, his health, etc. She asked if our home is safe, do we have power, water, is the neighborhood safe, on and on. I hung up and was stuck on The Dog Question. I went into WHAT IF mode

 A whole day with a stranger? Will I like the RN? Will she love Beau? Will she want me to lock him in the bedroom? he has Only Once in 5 years been shut away and that was when the EMT's came to pick Bob up for the ER. I shut my mind down by placing it in God's hands by praying and asking him to send an RN that loved dogs and got a good night's sleep.,

Kristy, RN called on Thursday to tell me the time would be 9:30 and it could last for hours and she started her questions, about Bob's abilities to move, personal questions and I felt like I was talking to  a good friend. At the end in closing she said, I see you have a dog. What kind is he? I love dogs! no kidding she said I LOVE DOGS. 

I said he is a big dog, 80 lbs and is Dane/catahoula. She said I have boxers. She said when they were looking for a dog, she wanted a Velcro dog. A patient had 3 boxers in their home 3 boxers, and they were Velcro dogs. She said we went out and got our own Velcro dogs. (this means to me, she is used to big, leaning on you dogs that drool a lot) Beau is safe

I said you will love Beau, he is a big Velcro dog. We chatted like old friends and she said, are you going out of town for the holiday? I said, on no, Bob has not walked in 3 months and I even order everything delivered. She said since it will be all day you can go shopping or out with a friend while I am there if you would like to.

With those words, I knew I had another Angel headed to our house to do the infusion and God is in control. No, I will not go out, Bob would be lost without me here and with a stranger in the house.

    Beau boy, I just KNOW that the nurse who is visiting your place soon is going to be head over heels in love with you by the time she's done with dad! I love that it lifts your mum's spirits so much... hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx

  4. Must be a relief to know plans have been made, the date decided, and that you'll even be getting help from a dog-loving nurse. ♥

  15. She's walking on sunshine, oh yaaaa ... and don't it feel good! I'm so delighted to realize these blessings are falling in place. I've no doubt Beau's going to love her, too. Maybe even Bob -- provided she flirts with him. (haha)

  18. Best NEWS ever! I gotta tell you, when I could not do anything and the Public Health People stopped by 3 times a week to check up on me, they ALL LOVED Nutmeg! ANd she loved them! I think Pople who like people like pets too! And Sandra, I would like to use a photo of Beau for the International Dog Day badge (it is August 26), Can I use one from your blogs? Oh yes, I am glad you can have bananas! Keep being awesome! Hugz Barb

  19. Love those sweet feral kitties, Beau! One of them looks a lot like our Sunshine! He is a "porch kitty", which means he lives on the porch, but he is a sweet big boy. I hope those sweet kitties will find good homes with people who will love them like your Mama and Daddy love you. Oh,Mama, So happy to hear the good news about the infusion nurse, etc....yes, God is sending all the right angels to help you! What an answer to pray!!! Love to you all.

  20. Oh, wow! What an amazing answer to prayer. I will keep praying it works and gives him back his mobility.

    Those kittens are precious, I am guessing if your brother has a feral colony he knows when and how to trap and get them fixed. People who help the rescues with TNR colonies are the best.

    Thank you for linking up with Feline Friday!

  21. I'm so happy for you! What a wonderful woman.

  22. Praise the Lord for another "angel" to come to the rescue! And she loves dogs. Win-win. That's wonderful. Prayers that the infusions will work and y'all will be comfortable having another person in the house. I only say that because I get kinda shy when I have company. I'm ok everywhere else. Weird how that is or I'm just weird. lol
    Hope the ferals get good, loving homes.
    Love. 💖

  23. Before today, I'd not heard the term, velcro dog. That's funny. Pups are funny how they can get. Sounds like you have a nurse that is smart and knows how to relax her client with the right words, questions and love of pups. Most excellent.

  24. I didn't know what a Velcro dog was either until I met Beau. I tell you what - I would do that jump with you if I could physically - I can do it in my mind though. I am sooooooooooooooooooooooo happy for the both of you!

  25. And the positives keep coming. Hope all the infusions go well and help a lot.
