That's very nice of you baz

I've got Piers Morgan on with Ian Botham....very interesting 

I'm just looking at some of the stuff I've recorded ....but it defo won't be Piers Morgan  

Evening Darnies  

 

Just had the fright of my life! I had just fed Pops, then she went out in the garden and next doors dogs started barking at her. Her eyesight is very bad, so I don't think she realised they were behind a fence and she was safe. Anyway, she had some sort of seizure!! She couldn't walk at all for a while, and when she was able to get up she was dragging herself round in circles (she couldn't use her back legs) and her head was all shaky and weird. It only lasted about 2 minutes but I genuinely thought she was about to die on me!  She couldn't settle for a while afterwards, she was making funny noises and then she was sick. She's ok now though. 

 

I think it may have been a sudden drop in blood sugar brought on by fear, and luckily, as she had JUST eaten, it went as quickly as it came on. I hope that's what it was anyway.  I could be talking complete and utter rubbish! The dipstick thing I'm supposed to be doing is constantly showing her to have high blood sugar, so... 

 

I'm watching her VERY carefully....and the slightest sign that she's not ok I shall be ringing the out of hours vet. If not, I'll take her in the morning anyway, just to get her checked out. I need to talk to him about her diabetes anyway. I'm assuming the constant high blood sugar readings mean she needs her insulin adjusting. 

 

Having a dog is stressful 

 

 

hi

Aww, it's really good.

 

Piers asked him...last question......what would be your epitaph?

 

His reply.....This guy rode the torpedo to the end of the tube 

 

Well we weren't going anywhere ...trouble is I never noticed they had parked their car up the road until they had nearly finished ....although I did see the removal van on their drive lll

*tries to calm down a bit* 

 

Evening Bazzy, Sprout, Summer and Ros  

Oh flippin eck Ducks!  Hopefully it was just....(I say just)  shock and she'll be ok 

I don't mind Piers too much , but don't like Botham  

See....this prog would change your attitude about him 

OMG Poor Pops ....and poor you It was probably a bit of a hypo Ducky ....oh and hi  

Hi there Ros Happy Friday How are you ?

 

Hi  

 

Yeah, I'm well used to the hyper symptoms now ....this was my first taste of a hypo. Hell of a lot scarier! 

Hi bazzy summer sprooty ducks aww ducky - sounds like shock poor thing day OK but weather awful - just not stopped raining

Aww But on the plus side ...you are now on .....* Kindle time *  

I'm very relived she recovered quickly....obviously for poor Poppy's sake, but also, I don't think I could cope with the shame of ringing the emergency vet AGAIN  It's always a Friday night!!  

 

I have been Kindling most of the day  

no, same here ....but nothing like the other day , thank goodness !

agree - piers is Ok in small doses but Botham has always been up himself IMO especially younger

You need a season ticket  

were you off today*sqinty look*smiley*

Never mind Ros ....you will have the last laugh this time next week  

 

yep - except night mare was on form today - she is truly pathetic

But it's your pet.  It's extortion but you're like me. I used to do anything for my pets healthwise.  

Oh no ducky I hope she's recovered, they can't blooming tell us either can they!
Good plan keeping an eye on her and seeing the vet tomorrow- that's what I would do
See if you can get her to have a drink too

Hi Ros happy Friday!

Oh heck- Churchill alert!

Sweet dreams all

Nite nite Sweet ...sleep well and have a good Saturday  

 

 

 

We had an early start to half term this time. 

 

If it helps, things are going to be a bit of a nightmare soon. Our Head has resigned, he leaves at Easter. So we have 5 weeks to try and put some sort of plan in place. My work load is about to get even more crazy than normal.

 

I'm gonna make the most of this week off. 

Oh heck !

Oh wow!   

Just been on the news....the chopper that went down in Scotland.....they think the fuel stopped getting to the engine but they don't know why yet. There was enough fuel in it to land apparently 

 

They're very good. They don't make me feel guilty for interrupting their evening It is costing me a fortune though! She's had 5 over night stays at the vet since she's been with me (about a month)...... £400 for the privilege. 

 

Luckily my mum qualifies for help from the PDSA (it's my mum's dog), so any treatment she has during the day is free (aside from a donation), and the vet has been very good at letting me still use the certificate, even though she's staying with me at the moment. It's just the overnight stays that I have to pay for. 

Night Churchill  

aww ducks -TBh not much better in our place Head took early retirement through ill health - so got an acting head - acting deputy  - has your head got another post??

aww its so expensive  but a pet just can't suffer -would love another cat

Sorry , I just remembered I had put a load of tumble drying in earlier this evening and forgot to take it out
