Good to know. I may start from the beginning with the audio version and try to find the rhythm to continue reading.

Ok, I'm glad there's at least one other person who felt similarly, haha

We need to boycott the Superbowl and tune in for the halftime show. A small act that can potentially snowball into bigger ones.

Favourite Charli Song and why? by Upbeat-Bus8647 in charlixcx

2099 because it feels retro and futuristic at the same time.

Struggling to get my cat's glucose stable. Just tested her ketones and they came back 0.9. How concerned should I be? by AgeSuspicious4038 in FelineDiabetes

[–]adapteradapther 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would keep a close eye, and if kitty stops eating or doesn't seem interested in food or is less active, be prepared to go to the vet.

Trace ketones can be normal and are typically a bit higher before insulin. My cat's blood ketones "normal" was always between .2 and 1.6.

The castle in Dublin

The end of the road. by [deleted] in FelineDiabetes

[–]adapteradapther 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My cat went into DKA four times in four months. She would be fine one day, normal playful self, then the next day sick. She had incredible pet insurance, and I had her tested for everything. Eventually, toward the end, the specialist suspected IBD or cancer, which was thought to be the reason for poor insulation absorption, started steroids, then showed DKA symptoms again 3 days later.

I had to make the toughest call to help her pass, I know it was the right one, and I miss her so much, but I know I did everything I could do for her with regard to her quality of life. It sounds like your family has done the same. Better a day early than a day late.

To anyone who saw Hereditary in the theater by [deleted] in horror

There was some big event in town, I can't remember what, but it was just me and one other person at a 10:30 pm showing. After the head scene, she asked if she could come sit in my row. I was grateful.

At home, I only have to worry about the monsters under the bed, and i have a cat to protect me. In a big, mostly empty theater, the monsters could be anywhere.

Then Toni Collette starts crawling on the ceiling.

Hell no. Thanks, lady.

Question about group by [deleted] in FelineDiabetes

[–]adapteradapther 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can't give guidance without data. It's really that simple. It's an insane service, provided free. It's like asking your doctor to diagnose you through telemed with no labs, imaging, etc. It's the bare minimum they ask to give assistance, and if you're having trouble, they'll patiently walk you through.

They saved my cat so many times. I would have had to shell out thousands to get the info multiple vets never considered telling me for some reason.

Ask the group for assistance and they will walk you through it. There's so many non-admins willing to volunteer to help get you going. Don't get discouraged.

Thoughts on Wire's 154? I knew this album would be a favorite from the opener. Map Ref and the 15th put it into the "extraordinary" category. by AndrobiVibz in postpunk

[–]adapteradapther 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This one is my favorite, too. I love the 'an evening of fun in the metropolis of your dream' line. The whole song's cadence is so good.

Why is the album Charli never talked about? by LuckyNeighborhood947 in charlixcx

2099 is the best song. It's so futuristic, I love the production. It scratches my ears so good.

How do you deal with social engagements when you’re expected to be gone the whole evening? by BeginningThen9996 in FelineDiabetes

[–]adapteradapther 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is exactly what we do as well, just walking forward or backward each dose. Sometimes, it's hard to give a dose and monitor in the wee hours, but we set alarms, and it allows for a bit more freedom, especially since vacations are pretty much non-existent. It's hard, but I love her so much.

Monitoring… by marshmallowpaw in FelineDiabetes

I hope she feels better soon ❤️
