Octover 28, 2011 ~ Friday

Judy thinks she may have a broken rib......she is still really EXTRA sore from her fall.


This is her knees, 5 days later.....the right one (in photo) has the worst damage on the surface, pretty deep and nasty.  The left knees probably took the brunt of the fall and is very swollen and sore.  With her immune system compromised like it is, it takes a long time for things like this to heal.

We are still feeling like new parents with a newborn in the household....translation: sleep deprived.

Poor Ruby has such a hard time getting comfortable with that cast on her front paw and she will fuss....also, having a hard time going potty and that makes her fuss until she FINALLY just goes....and goes.....and goes..................then, she will settle down and sleep for awhile so we can catch a few hours.........and so it goes........she does seem more alert today and not so fussy so maybe it's not hurting so much.  She sleeps soundly with her pain med on board but then she doesn't eat or drink so we can't just keep her snowed all the time.............

We have TWO little cuties outside our front door now..........Jesus and Maria.........


He likes the damp ground where the water drips from the over-head A/C

  2. Those scrapes can really hurt-and I totally understand about the taking a long time to heal :(. Poor little Ruby-hope all are on the way to healing and that you can get some decent sleep
