I love cooking. I have a cat called Mr KJ. I saw Justin Bieber in a different state. I move around a lot. My husband does sales for work. I have no children.
I have six months left to live. I am allergic to lactose. I like cats. I like Justin Bieber. I have a Justin Bieber CD. I have no children, no pets.
KJ sadly fell ill and we had to take him to the vet. How is he doing now? I hate when I have to go into the doctors. I hope it is not too serious He's not doing so well. They're keeping him in for observation overnight and giving him fluids. I miss him already. I know you said you don't have any pets at the moment, but have you had any in the past? I have had pets before, mostly cats. But after my last one died of old age right before I got my diagnosis, I decided that it was not worth it to get another animal. It might help me stay focused and happy but it would be awful to leave it so soon after getting attached. That makes sense. How are you feeling at the moment?  About as good as can be expected after getting in from chemo. Trying to improve my life expectancy by doing their medical crap, but I don't like it. I am considering stopping the treatment so I can just enjoy what time I have left. What else do you have going on? You wouldn't be the first to make that decision. Do what makes you feel happiest! I've been cooking quite a bit. I used to cook up some treats for KJ when he was a bit younger, so I've been looking at making some nice healthy treats for when he gets home, so long as I get to take him home. Any recommendations on healthy cat snacks? My cats always were spoiled and would eat what I ate as long as it wasn't poisonous to them. My last cat, buttercup was so sweet, and she loved to eat icecream. I had to find ones that were safe for her, and I would make her a bowl when I had one so she wouldn't be trying to eat my chocolate flavored bowl haha. I think it depends on what your cat actually likes. Buttercups favorite food was chicken Maybe I should make some chicken ice cream, if that's even possible! LOL. I guess both me and Mr KJ will be on a healthy eating kick. I'm hoping I should hear back from the vets soon. And then I'll have to deal with the insurers to see if the treatments covered. Hopefully my husband will be back soon and he can help wrangle things. He's much better with the insurance people than I am. Hopefully they do you right. You definitely can make chicken ice cream! It smells awful but Buttercup used to love it. It is soothing too if they are feeling bad because ice cream makes everyone feel better haha.  Absolutely, ice cream is basically medicine! Have you considered reaching out to any shelters to see if you can spend some time with the animals there? Maybe it would give you the boost without feeling tied to a pet with your diagnosis,. I actually have not thought of that at all. I used to volunteer at my local shelter, but I don't know if the same lady is running the place. She might like having me there if I go in and help out a little. that would definitely help my mood. Thanks
